Staff Product Engineer driving yield, cost efficiency, and accelerated NPI through test and data optimization.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Staff Product Engineer focused on driving cost efficiency, yield gains, and accelerated NPI across global semiconductor manufacturing environments. I own product readiness end-to-end—from introduction through high-volume manufacturing—leading characterization, reliability, and test release across distributed teams, while using data analysis, DOE, and C++ test refinement to improve stability and throughput.
Over my career, I’ve streamlined manufacturing by reducing cycle time, improving test flows, and increasing parallelism—delivering a 20–50% reduction in test time through eliminating redundant flows and optimizing test routines. I also strengthen quality by resolving assembly-related failures with bench correlation, X-ray validation, GRR/CPK, and diagnostics; improve documentation control and PLM traceability through ECO management and standardized templates; and qualify second-source sites to accelerate scale-up and supply-chain resilience. I’m passionate about mentoring technicians and NCGs, and I’ve supported sustaining deliverables contributing to $40.3M revenue while earning multiple Spark of Brilliance and a Bravo Award.
Experience
Work history, roles, and key accomplishments
Led product ownership across multiple IC product lines, driving NPI cycles from characterization and reliability through test program checkout and qualification release. Improved yield and test efficiency through DOE/correlation, C++ test refinement, bench/diagnostic correlation, and PLM/ECO and transfer readiness across global sites.
Led test and product engineering activities focused on cost reduction, yield improvement, and test optimization for automotive and power ICs. Monitored daily test performance, performed correlation and failure analysis, updated C++ test programs, and supported line sustainability and multi-site readiness.
