Debug Engineer

Quick Facts

• Role: Debug Engineer (hands-on silicon debugging)

• Programs: Maia & Cobalt silicon

Description

This role focuses on executing silicon debugging, including FA/FI and ensuring readiness of physical/electrical debug and test tools. You will develop new silicon debug methodologies for manufacturing test content and perform root-cause analysis of product issues, marginalities, and special circuit failures, translating findings into corrective actions across design and the manufacturing test flow.

You will also lead sub-projects and drive cross-functional and vendor engagement to improve debug readiness, quality, and yield.

Responsibilities

• Execute silicon debug, FA/FI, and debug tool readiness

• Support design collateral procurement and readiness for physical/electrical debug tools and physical FA readiness

• Perform semiconductor debug with fault isolation, failure analysis, and product engineering yield debugging

• Develop new silicon debug methodologies for all test content types in the MFG (manufacturing) flow

• Drive root-cause analysis for key product issues, circuit marginalities, and special circuit failures; translate findings into corrective actions in design methodologies and/or the MFG test flow

• Debug product issues on ATE and use analytical equipment to isolate failures

• Use best-in-class silicon debug tools and methodologies

• Lead projects by managing external vendors and driving cross-functional teams within larger development programs

Requirements

• Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field AND 1+ year(s) technical engineering experience

• OR Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field AND 2+ year(s) technical engineering experience

• OR equivalent experience

• Experience in silicon debugging and failure analysis with yield/debug focus

• Ability to meet Microsoft, customer, and/or government security screening requirements, including the Microsoft Cloud Background Check

• Ability to access export-controlled information and provide proof of citizenship or U.S. permanent residency/other protected status

Benefits

• Base pay range (U.S.): USD $102,100–$202,200 per year (different ranges for specific locations)
