Principal Product Engineer

Quick Facts

• Role: Principal Product Engineer (Product/Test Engineering)

Description

Own product and test engineering for new semiconductor product development and manufacturing, spanning pre-silicon readiness and post-silicon power/performance tuning through launch. Drive ATE test program implementation and optimization for SOC power/TDP, including correlation work with platform/system teams. Lead cross-functional programs and vendor efforts to deliver successful bring-up, characterization, debug, and yield analysis.

Responsibilities

• Drive pre-silicon readiness for power, performance, and thermal delivery (including LDOs and integrated VRs) related tests and features for successful power-on bring-up

• Drive power and performance tuning during the post-silicon phase with platform teams

• Implement ATE test program execution and optimization for SOC power/TDP; collaborate on correlation work enabling optimizations

• Define product manufacturing fuse requirements and end-to-end data flow for fusing across various test sockets

• Lead sub-projects and manage external vendors and cross-functional teams as part of larger development programs

• Apply strong knowledge of ATE test program development: test method development, test bring-up, characterization, debug, and yield analysis

• Use knowledge of DFT, silicon fabrication process, product Q&R, and basic transistor theory

Requirements

• PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field plus 3+ years technical engineering experience OR MS plus 6+ years OR BS plus 8+ years OR equivalent experience

• Experience in semiconductor IC development and the IC lifecycle across manufacturing, fabrication, testing, and packaging

• Ability to meet Microsoft, customer, and/or government security screening requirements (including passing the Microsoft Cloud Background Check and export-control eligibility)

Security Screening Notes

• Must pass the Microsoft Cloud Background Check upon hire/transfer and every two years thereafter

• Must provide proof of citizenship or US residency/protected status to access export-controlled information; citizenship verified with a valid passport

Benefits

Competitive base pay range varies by location in the U.S. (as stated in the posting) and eligibility for benefits and other compensation.
