Device Engineer 5

Job Title

Device Engineer 5

Role Summary

Senior device engineering role focused on development, characterization, and qualification of semiconductor devices. The role works within a device engineering team and collaborates with process, design, test, and product teams to meet performance, reliability, and manufacturability targets.

Primary responsibilities include laboratory characterization, data analysis, experimental design, and driving cross-functional issue resolution to production readiness.

Experience Level

Senior. Specific years-of-experience not specified in the source posting.

Responsibilities

Typical responsibilities for this role include:

• Design, execute, and analyze device characterization experiments in the lab.
• Develop test methods, measurement setups, and data-collection procedures.
• Interpret electrical, thermal, and reliability data to influence design and process decisions.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams (process, design, test, product) to resolve device issues and drive improvements.
• Document results, prepare technical reports, and present findings to stakeholders.
• Support transfer of device designs to manufacturing and qualification activities.

Requirements

Key qualifications and skills (must-have vs nice-to-have):

• Must-have: Hands-on experience with semiconductor device characterization and laboratory measurement techniques; ability to design and execute experiments; proficiency with data analysis and scripting (e.g., Python, MATLAB) for data processing.
• Must-have: Familiarity with electrical test equipment (parameter analyzers, oscilloscopes, probe stations) and instrumentation.
• Must-have: Strong problem-solving skills and experience working in cross-functional engineering teams.
• Nice-to-have: Experience with reliability testing, failure analysis, or production qualification processes.
• Nice-to-have: Knowledge of semiconductor process fundamentals or device physics applied to product development.

Education Requirements
