Responsibilities

Perform Electrical Failure Analysis (EFA) to support low yield analysis, reliability issues, and customer returns in semiconductor devices.
Utilize advanced EFA techniques such as curve tracing, EMMI, OBIRCH, LIVA, and TIVA for fault isolation and defect localization.
Analyze electrical test data and parametric results to identify failure signatures and yield loss mechanisms.
Collaborate with Process, Device, Yield, and Reliability teams to drive root cause analysis (RCA) and corrective/preventive actions (CAPA).
Support wafer-level and package-level failure analysis for rapid turnaround and yield improvement.
Correlate EFA findings with Physical Failure Analysis (PFA) to confirm defect mechanisms.
Maintain and troubleshoot EFA tools to ensure high uptime, accuracy, and repeatability.
Develop and optimize methodologies for efficient fault isolation and yield learning.
Document analysis results and prepare detailed technical reports for stakeholders.
Drive continuous improvement initiatives (CIT) to enhance analysis capability and turnaround time.
Train technicians and junior engineers on EFA techniques and best practices.
Travel may be required.
