NAND DDQA Senior Engineer

Our vision is to transform how the world uses information to enrich life for all.
Join an inclusive team passionate about one thing: using their expertise in the relentless pursuit of innovation for customers and partners. The solutions we build help make everything from virtual reality experiences to breakthroughs in neural networks possible. We do it all while committing to integrity, sustainability, and giving back to our communities. Because doing so can fuel the very innovation we are pursuing.
The general responsibilities of the position are the following:
Live-Die Reliability Ownership

• Own live-die reliability qualification strategy and execution across NAND development nodes and products
• Define, review, and approve HTOL, dynamic stress, cycling, and mission-profile-based testing using live silicon
• Drive early silicon learning to identify cell, array, and peripheral reliability risks

Technical Analysis & Risk Assessment

• Analyze live-die reliability data to assess wear-out, drift, degradation, and failure mechanisms
• Correlate live-die results with bench, array-level, and product-level reliability models
• Perform risk assessments and clearly communicate reliability margin, gaps, and mitigation plans

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Work closely with Design, TD, PE, Failure Analysis, and Product Engineering teams
• Provide design and process feedback based on live-die reliability findings
• Support technology readiness, design reviews, and release decisions with data-backed recommendations

Methodology & Continuous Improvement

• Improve live-die reliability methodologies, coverage, and efficiency
• Drive standardization of test conditions, pass/fail criteria, and reporting
• Mentor junior engineers and contribute to DDQA best practices

Experience Requirements

• 5+ years of semiconductor engineering experience, with strong exposure to NAND device, circuit, or system reliability, quality engineering, or product qualification in an advanced technology node environment.
• Hands-on experience working cross-functionally with Technology Development (TD), Design Engineering (DE), Product Engineering (PE), and Manufacturing/Fab teams to resolve complex reliability risks and drive data-based decisions.
• Strong data analysis capability, including mining large datasets, detecting abnormal trends, calculating reliability metrics (e.g., FIT, DPM), and translating results into actionable recommendations for leadership.
• Effective written and verbal communication skills, including experience authoring technical reports, presenting to diverse technical and leadership audiences, and facilitating cross-functional reviews.

Education Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Materials Science, Physics, Semiconductor Engineering, or a closely related technical discipline is required.
• Master's degree or PhD in a relevant engineering or physical science field is strongly preferred, particularly with a focus on device physics, reliability engineering, or semiconductor materials.
