Staff Engineer, Wafer Quality Assurance

ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

• Perform wafer paper failure analysis (FA) and provide disposition for issues flagged by customers.
• Facilitate wafer manufacturing readiness review (MRR) and process design readiness (PDR) review meetings.
• Drive 8D closure with corrective action and preventive action (CAPA) implementations to prevent reoccurrence 
• Failure Mode & Effects Analysis (FMEA): Lead and facilitate FMEA activities across wafer fab to proactively identify, assess, and mitigate potential failure modes and their impact on quality and reliability.
• Partner with process, equipment, manufacturing, and data engineering teams to implement automated quality surveillance and anomaly detection solutions.
• Drive digitalization initiatives that improve CAPA effectiveness, root cause identification, and risk assessment processes.
• Evaluate and integrate generative AI and digital agent technologies to enhance engineering productivity, knowledge management, and quality decision-making.
• Drive adoption of AI-powered quality engineering tools to increase engineering productivity, accelerate defect detection cycle times, and transition the organization from reactive quality management to predictive quality — anticipating and preventing excursions before they impact yield or customer deliverables.
• Participate in developing and deploying AI-assisted quality monitoring solutions for Change Review Board (CRB), Material Review Board (MRB), Failure Analysis (FA), and FMEA activities.
