YIELD ENGINEER
ABOUT THE DEPARTMENT
The Yield team is a functional group supporting high quality Graphics, CPU and APU products with the goal to reduce cost of manufacturing, while achieving committed time to market in a predictable and consistent fashion.
JOB PURPOSE
The Yield Modeling Engineer is expected to generate accurate product yield models for complex product architectures which will be used to drive forward-looking decision making for AMD's product roadmap. Proficiency in coding/scripting along with strong data analysis skills are essential to be successful in this role. Time will also be spent troubleshooting product yield signals to drive continuous yield improvement. Technical leadership and innovation are required.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
A Yield Model Engineer develops models to forecast the yield for all of AMD's products. Detailed model validation work leveraging actual product yield is required to ensure accuracy and opportunity to improve/refine models. A Yield Model Engineer also conducts in-depth investigation and analysis to identify and eliminate causes of systematic and random yield loss.
