Form of workCompany:
Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.
Job Area:
Engineering Group, Engineering Group > Hardware Engineering
General Summary:
The main responsibility for this position is Fault Isolation of semiconductor IC devices to help determine root cause. Evaluates the electrical characteristics of systems and/or integrated circuits, components, and sub-components to help determine root cause of failure using Electrical fault isolation tools/techniques. Review of current and historical production, and quality data will be necessary as part of the investigation. High level of collaboration and interaction with different Product Engineering, Design Engineering, Quality Engineering, and Foundry Engineering teams is necessary. Conclusion of the analysis work is summarized as a report for driving corrective action. The qualified candidate will be working autonomously or at times within a team, to analyze design, reliability, or yield failures down to a root cause. This will involve use of various state-of-the-art analytical tools, processing the acquired data and information sets to arrive at a conclusion regarding the cause of failure. Ability to seamlessly work with cross-functional teams around the globe is a must.
Minimum Qualifications:
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Engineering, or related field and 2+ years of Hardware Engineering or related work experience.
