Roles and Responsibilities:

Job Summary/Overview:

SAS is seeking a highly driven candidate to lead the Device TD Team. As a Device TD Manager, one will be responsible for driving optimization of transistor performance and targeting to maximize product yield as well as transferring and developing newer technologies from a device perspective. In addition, one would work to develop and implement ideas to improve systematic yield and productivity issues across the factory.

Specific Job Duties:

The candidate will work on improving existing mature technology nodes, as well as developing/ramping immature technology. A deep understanding of device physics and process is required for this position, plus knowledge in DC/Electrical Test, Reliability and Design for Manufacturing.

Validate pre-existing SPICE specs and perform spot simulations.

Investigate model to hardware correlation (MHC) by identifying gaps in silicon test data vs the model and leading the way in resolving the mismatch.

Design, execute, and analyze experiments to optimize Transistor performance/variation with end goal of improving Parametric Yield.

Lead/Participate in Task Force Teams to solve systematic Yield and other Fab-wide issues. Actively seek opportunities to improve systematics.

Support unit process (ex: CMP, Etch, etc) or process integration team with evaluation of device impact for key change points (ex: cost/step reduction, throughput improvement, etc.) across the factory.

Clearly communicate ideas or opinions thru written reports and oral presentations to both engineering and executive levels.

Shift: 1st -Shift, Mon - Fri, 8am-5pm, After hours support as needed. 

Skills and Qualifications:

Education, Training, Certification(s) and Minimum years of experience required

Bachelors in Science or Engineering (Electrical, Computer, Chemical, Material Science, or related areas) required. Masters or PhD preferred.

5+ years working experience required in semiconductor industry, highly experienced candidates are encouraged to apply.

Management experience required.

Knowledge, Skills, Abilities, Software, and Tools

Deep understanding of the interactions between process and several aspects of Electrical test. Thorough understanding of process flow.

Extensive analysis skills, including electrical device characterization, yield analysis, data mining, DOE, and SPC. JMP or Spotfire experience highly preferred.

SPICE modeling/simulation and MHC experience preferred.

Must have excellent communication, documentation and presentation skills.

Must be capable of shifting focus and changing priorities - dealing with ambiguity. Demonstrated ability to meet deadlines and commitments while juggling multiple priorities.
