Description

You will own the selection, qualification, and reliability analysis of electronic components for use in extreme, high-reliability environments.

Responsibilities

• Identify new SOC/IC technologies and hardware components that match specific environmental requirements, such as downhole synchronization.
• Develop and execute component qualification plans for new or unqualified technologies in high-reliability applications.
• Interface with internal and external failure analysis labs to investigate root causes and provide recommendations to product groups.
• Advise design engineers on component selection based on electrical performance, application environments, and electrical de-rating.
• Manage obsolescence reviews for existing designs and review quality test reports for packaged components or dies.

Required Skills

• 6 to 15 years of experience in electrical component engineering.
• B.S. or M.S. in Electrical Engineering, Microelectronics Engineering, or Electrical Engineering Technology.
• Digital background experience including microprocessors, microcontrollers, FPGA design, and memory interfacing.
• Strong knowledge of component failure modes, reliability theory, and component specifications/standards.
• Experience with hardware circuit board design basics and semiconductor, microcircuit, or discrete device fabrication.
• Familiarity with accelerated reliability testing and component failure analysis.
• Practical experience with test equipment including power supplies, ovens, LCR meters, DMMS, and oscilloscopes.
• Knowledge of components used in high-reliability, automotive, or downhole environments.

Preferred Skills

• Experience with Cadence PSpice, component modeling, Labview, or Python.
