Product Engineer (Manufacturing)

Quick Facts

• Role: Product Engineer (Manufacturing)

Description

You will be responsible for product ownership across SiC substrate and epitaxial manufacturing, developing, monitoring, and characterizing how equipment, raw materials, and process variations impact quality, yield, reliability, and cost. You will define product control parameters, build monitoring systems to detect and mitigate yield variations, and lead initiatives to improve yield, reduce defects, enhance reliability, and lower cost. You will also support RMA/MRB/PCRB/CAPA/risk mitigation, maintain process documentation (FMEAs, Control Plans, SPC, Cp/Cpk metrics), and collaborate with manufacturing, quality, technicians, and R&D to transition new technologies into volume production.

Responsibilities

• Product ownership across the Materials and Epi manufacturing value stream

• Participate in RMA, MRB, PCRB, CAPA, and risk mitigation activities

• Define product control parameters and develop monitoring systems

• Document and communicate project status, deliverables, and product risks

• Lead yield improvement, defect reduction, reliability enhancement, and cost-reduction projects

• Develop and maintain Process FMEAs, Control Plans, SPC strategies, and process capability metrics (Cp/Cpk)

• Use advanced data analytics to analyze manufacturing data and drivers

• Apply Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma, DOE, and continuous improvement methodologies

• Partner with R&D to qualify and transition new technologies into volume production

• Lead process changes to ensure repeatability, reproducibility, manufacturability, and long-term process control

• Support NPI, product qualification, and technology transfers

Requirements

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Chemical, Mechanical, Electrical, Materials Engineering, or Materials Science

• 2+ years of engineering experience in manufacturing focused on process/equipment/material-related yield and quality improvements

• Strong analytical, statistical, organizational, and problem-solving skills

• Experience with Microsoft Office, Power BI, and data analysis tools

• Ability to work in cleanroom and non-cleanroom environments

• Strong written and verbal communication skills

Benefits

• Exposure to semiconductor manufacturing through a vertically integrated model, from substrate production through device fabrication and testing

• Work supporting cutting-edge technology growth for electric vehicle adoption, sustainable power management, 5G telecommunications, and emerging semiconductor markets
