You will become part of a hands-on development team that sets the standard in cultivating excellence, creativity and innovation. Here, you’ll do more than join something — you’ll define something. As one of us (SiP process NPI team), you will interface between internal product/device design, quality, supply chain, and the external suppliers to develop and deploy new System-in-Package (SiP) technologies. We are looking for individuals who are innovative with a proven track record to bring packaging solution from concept to high-volume manufacturing
As a SiP NPI engineer, you will play a crucial role in developing next generation SiP process for various of end products. You will be deeply involved from early design phase, prove-of-concept phase (POC), multiple NPI build phases, and hand over to MP team until risk ramp. During these phases, you will be the key stakeholder to lead OSAT’s process team for process development & qualification per projects assigned. You will also be the major contact window to behavior of our team and collaborate with internal / external X-function teams. Specific responsibilities include, but not limited to: ⁃ Collaborate with x-function team, to define next-gen SiP architecture based on assessment of functionality / form factor / process capability ⁃ Define general process flow and assess process risk per different options, co-work with internal RD team or OSAT team for early validation to de-risk and update risk level based on validation result ⁃ Work with internal project management team, to define NPI timeline, detailed bring up plan, formal build plan, post build plan and etc ⁃ Take lead for process development in POC build & NPI build, drive OSAT process team to bring up each process steps (material down-selection, equipment qualification, tooling design, recipes fine tune), integrate as one robust process flow and deliver SiP with timely manner (based on NPI build plan) & high quality (yield, reliability) ⁃ Work with EE team & REL team for process related FA, take lead of process trouble shooting, commonality study, corrective actions and drive till closure. ⁃ Drive OSAT team, material vendor, equipment vendor for potential process yield improvement, cost reduction, design rule improvement.
