Product Yield Enhancement (PYE) – DRAM Yield Analysis Engineer

Job Title

Product Yield Enhancement (PYE) – DRAM Yield Analysis Engineer

Role Summary

Join a global, cross-functional Product Yield Enhancement team focused on ramping DRAM products from New Product Introduction through high-volume manufacturing. The role performs data-driven yield analysis and root-cause debugging across frontend, backend and test domains to improve manufacturing yield and product quality.

With mentorship from experienced engineers, you will apply analytics, automation, and AI-assisted tools to identify yield limiters, support failure analysis, and drive corrective actions with process, product and test teams.

Experience Level

Entry-level. Open to fresh graduates and early-career candidates; experienced applicants are also welcome.

Responsibilities

Primary responsibilities include data analysis, failure localization, and collaboration to drive yield improvements.

• Perform data analysis across Frontend, Backend and Test to identify yield limiters and drive root-cause diagnostics using analytics and automation.
• Conduct electrical characterization and failure analysis using in-house bench testers and advanced fault-isolation methods to localize defects for physical failure analysis (PFA).
• Partner with Frontend Process and Quality teams to implement manufacturing corrections that improve yield.
• Collaborate with Product Engineering and Test Solution Engineering to analyze test-related yield issues and support shift-left initiatives.
• Work with Global Quality teams to ensure DRAM products meet customer and reliability requirements.
• Support yield learning during NPI, qualification, ramp, and mature production through data-driven insights.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills and attributes; nice-to-have items are noted below.

• Must-have: Strong debugging, analytical, and problem-solving skills.
• Must-have: Familiarity with semiconductor manufacturing processes, circuit layout, and schematics.
• Must-have: Ability to work independently, take ownership, and deliver results in a fast-paced environment.
• Must-have: Strong communication skills and a collaborative mindset for working with global cross-functional teams.
• Nice-to-have: Programming or scripting experience (Perl, Python, C/C++).
• Nice-to-have: Interest and aptitude in leveraging AI, automation, and scripting to reduce repetitive tasks and scale yield engineering workflows.

Education Requirements

Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical, Electronics, Microelectronics Engineering, or a related engineering discipline. Both fresh graduates and experienced candidates are welcome.
