NVIDIAJob Title
Manager, Product Development Engineering - HBM
Role Summary
Lead the HBM Product Development team within Operations to drive NPI, manufacturing ramp, and high-volume production readiness for next-generation HBM devices. Partner across ASIC, system product engineering, test, reliability, suppliers, and manufacturing to improve yield and product quality.
Experience Level
Senior role — requires 8+ years of experience in memory product development or engineering and 3+ years of technical leadership/people management.
Responsibilities
Primary responsibilities focus on technical leadership of HBM bring-up, yield improvement, and production readiness.
- Lead and mentor product development engineers for HBM bring-up, characterization, and production ramp.
- Partner with HBM vendors and internal teams (ASIC, System PE, Test, Reliability) to root-cause manufacturing failures and shift fixes to suppliers.
- Own root-cause analyses and drive resolutions for yield excursions, fallout, and reliability escapes; ensure smooth NPI-to-production transitions.
- Lead yield improvement initiatives targeting reduction of manufacturing fallout across the supply chain.
- Provide structured quality feedback to suppliers and lead test audits to improve outgoing product quality.
- Establish scalable data analysis frameworks, automation tooling, and statistical methods for validation and production monitoring.
- Coordinate product qualification, ramp readiness, and scale-up with operations teams.
- Present HBM readiness status and risk assessments to leadership.
Requirements
Must-have technical skills, experience, and leadership for successful performance in this role.
- 8+ years of experience in memory product development or engineering.
- 3+ years of technical leadership or people management experience.
- Strong circuit-level understanding of HBM architecture and key AC/DC datasheet parameters.
- Hands-on experience with product characterization on the Verigy 93K ATE platform.
- Proficiency in Python, C, or C++ and experience in statistical data modeling (JMP or equivalent).
- Experience building automation and scripting infrastructure for validation, data analysis, and test workflows.
- Proven ability to drive cross-functional problem solving under aggressive schedules; strong communication and organizational skills.
Nice-to-have:
- Direct engineering experience with major HBM suppliers (e.g., SK Hynix, Micron, Samsung).
- Bias for action and comfort resolving ambiguous problems with limited direction.
Education Requirements
MS or BS in Electrical Engineering (or equivalent practical experience).
