Product Engineer, Product Operations Engineer

Mountain View, CA

About the Role

We are seeking a Product Engineer / Product Operations Engineer to serve as the critical link between design, test, manufacturing, and the customer, and to help stand up the product-engineering / product-operations function from the ground up. In this role you will own products from first silicon through qualification, ramp, and sustaining—driving yield, test quality, cost, and supply to ensure our multi-die devices ship on time, at the volumes datacenter silicon demands, and at target margin. You will partner with DFT, design, and test engineering, and help establish the foundry/OSAT and operations relationships needed to take products from bring-up through ramp and sustaining for advanced-packaging datacenter silicon.

What you'll do

  • Own assigned products across the full lifecycle: new product introduction (NPI), characterization, qualification, ramp, and sustaining
  • Drive yield analysis and improvement—monitor wafer sort and final test yield, lead failure analysis and root-cause efforts, and partner with design/test to close gaps
  • Own the multi-die yield story—known-good-die (KGD) sorting, die-matching and binning across a package, assembly and packaging yield, and cost-per-package risk (a single marginal die can sink an entire multi-die assembly)
  • Manage test program quality and optimization across wafer sort, final test, and system-level test (SLT)—test time reduction, coverage vs. cost trade-offs, guardbands, and outlier/screening strategies (PAT/SBL/SYL) used to screen marginal die for KGD
  • Lead silicon characterization across PVT corners; define spec limits, shmoo analysis, and datasheet correlation
  • Own product qualification (HTOL, HAST, TC, ESD/latch-up, etc.) and reliability sign-off in line with JEDEC standards as applicable
  • Establish and drive production operations: lot dispositioning, capacity and WIP management, binning/grading strategy, and coordination with foundry and OSAT (assembly/test) partners
  • Monitor and act on production data—SPC, yield dashboards, and statistical analysis (JMP/Python) to detect excursions and drive corrective action
  • Lead excursion management and 8D/CAPA—contain, root-cause, and resolve manufacturing and quality issues; establish customer-return (RMA/FA) handling
  • Drive cost reduction and continuous improvement—test time, yield, package, and material cost initiatives
  • Help establish customer-quality processes—field issue resolution, quality reporting, and audits

What we're looking for:

  • Bachelor's or Master's in Electrical Engineering, Materials/Semiconductor Engineering, or related field
  • Hands-on experience in semiconductor product engineering, test engineering, or operations for complex digital/SoC/ASIC products
  • Strong understanding of the semiconductor manufacturing flow—wafer fab, wafer sort, assembly, and final test
  • Multi-die / advanced-package product engineering—known-good-die (KGD) sorting, die-to-package matching and binning, assembly and packaging yield, and cost-per-package management
  • Experience with foundry and OSAT relationships and offshore test/assembly operations
  • Experience with ATE platforms (Advantest, Teradyne) and test program development, debug, and optimization, including system-level test (SLT)
  • Solid grounding in yield analysis, statistics, and data analysis—SPC, distributions, correlation; proficiency with JMP, Python, or equivalent
  • Experience with silicon characterization (PVT corners, shmoo, spec setting) and datasheet correlation
  • Working knowledge of product qualification and reliability methodologies (JEDEC).
  • Familiarity with DFT/test concepts—scan, MBIST, ATPG patterns, boundary scan—and how they map to production test
  • Knowledge of outlier screening methods (PAT/SBL/SYL) applied to known-good-die (KGD) screening—identifying marginal die before they are committed to an expensive multi-die package
  • Experience with NPI program management and product ramp/sustaining for advanced-packaging datacenter silicon
  • Familiarity with multi-die package technologies and assembly processes.
  • Structured problem-solving / continuous-improvement methodology (8D, CAPA, DOE, or equivalent)
  • Strong cross-functional collaboration skills and the ability to drive issues to closure across design, test, fab, and OSAT partners

Compensation

Final offers depend on level, location, and skills relevant to the role. Additional compensation: equity grant per company guidelines; medical / dental / vision; 401(k); standard PTO. 

Visa Sponsorship

DensityAI sponsors qualified candidates for H-1B, O-1, TN, E-3, and other employment-based visas, and we welcome applicants on F-1 OPT and STEM-OPT. Work authorization is required at start; we provide immigration support to secure or transfer status.

Export Controls

Aspects of this role may involve access to information subject to U.S. export controls (EAR/ITAR). We may discuss licensing or scope adjustments during the interview.

DensityAI is an Equal Opportunity Employer. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religious creed, national origin, ancestry, physical or mental disability, medical condition, genetic information, marital status, sex, gender, gender identity, gender expression, age (40+), sexual orientation, military or veteran status, pregnancy, or any other status protected by law. We comply with the California CROWN Act and provide reasonable accommodations on request.

Full compensation packages are based on candidate experience and relevant certifications. 

California pay range

$200,000 - $300,000 USD

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

An "Armed forces service medal veteran" means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
