Key Responsibilities

  • Select optimum package solutions balancing cost, performance, manufacturability, and reliability for advanced silicon nodes (5nm, 3nm, 2nm+).
  • Collaborate with IC design, system design, and thermal teams to design custom packages meeting stringent CPI, SI/PI, and thermal requirements.
  • Research, develop, and productize new materials (e.g., TIM, build-up film, underfill) supporting advanced node silicon.
  • Serve as a technical specialist defining assembly BOMs, processes, and troubleshooting packaging issues in new advanced technologies.
  • Implement, fine-tune, and productize newly developed technologies into High Volume Manufacturing (HVM).
  • Resolve quality issues in close partnership with QA and customers.

Requirements

  • BS/MS/PhD in STEM, Material Science, Electrical, or Mechanical Engineering.
  • 8+ years experience with BS, 6+ years with MS, or 3+ years with PhD.
  • Deep understanding of Signal Integrity (SI) and Power Integrity (PI) concepts (e.g., characteristic impedance, s-parameters, power plane optimization).
  • Strong authority on Cadence APD for custom substrate design.
  • Hands-on expertise with advanced assembly processes (flipchip, MCM packages, 2.5D) for advanced nodes (5nm, 3/2nm+).
  • Good understanding of materials related to Chip Packaging Interaction (CPI) and wafer BEOL processes.
  • Knowledge of advanced substrate manufacturing/processes (e.g., SAP/mSAP, PSPI w/ Cu RDL).
  • In-depth knowledge of failure analysis techniques on advanced node silicon products (5nm, 3/2nm+).
  • Strong project management, communication, and leadership skills.
  • Must have knowledge of GD&T and be able to read/comprehend mechanical drawings.
