Engineer, CE PYE

Job Title

Engineer, CE PYE

Role Summary

Member of the NAND Engineering - Product Yield Enhancement (PYE) team responsible for electrical fault isolation (FI) and failure analysis (FA) to support qualifications, new device introductions, and yield improvement. Works cross-functionally with Product, Process Integration, Test, and Quality/ Reliability groups to identify, isolate, and classify physical and electrical defects.

This is a technical engineering role focused on electrical device characterization, fault isolation tool operation, root-cause analysis, and development of FA/FI techniques.

Experience Level

Mid-level. No explicit years-of-experience were specified in the posting.

Responsibilities

Deliver electrical failure analysis and fault isolation to support product qualification and manufacturing ramp.

• Perform electrical device characterization to determine electrical failure mechanisms.
• Operate fault isolation equipment to localize failure defect locations.
• Formulate hypotheses for electrical/process failure mechanisms using electrical models and physical FA data.
• Collaborate with frontend/backend process teams, Product Engineering, Test, and Global Quality to resolve defectivity issues.
• Prepare and present electrical and physical failure analysis findings on a regular basis to drive corrective actions.
• Develop and implement new FI and physical FA techniques and maintain high tool uptime.
• Integrate AI-assisted tools and data analytics into workflows to improve efficiency and quality, following organizational and legal standards.

Requirements

Core expectations and desirable skills.

• Proven team player with strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Excellent verbal and written communication; able to present complex technical information to large groups.
• Motivated, detail-oriented, and focused on technical execution and continuous improvement.
• Willingness to participate in planned shift rotations to support critical qualifications and manufacturing events.
• Knowledge of fault isolation equipment, techniques, and physical failure analysis is a significant advantage (nice-to-have).
• Familiarity with NAND/DRAM/HBM device architectures and fab processes is desirable (nice-to-have).
• Experience or strong interest in AI, machine learning, data analytics, or automation applied to semiconductor FA/yield is highly desirable (nice-to-have).

Education Requirements

Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Electrical, Microelectronics, or Data Science.
