Responsibilities
This role spans the full reliability development cycle, from pre-silicon design assessments and physics-based modeling through post-silicon validation and lifetime performance analysis
Lead pre-silicon reliability analysis for analog, mixed-signal, and SoC circuits, focusing on mechanisms such EM, TDDB, HCI, BTI, ESD, and parametric shifts
Develop physics-of-failure-based lifetime and reliability models (Weibull, lognormal, exponential) that derive key reliability metrics including FIT, DPPM, AFR
Lead cross-disciplinary reviews with design, process, and reliability, to solve reliability constraints through technical insight, data analysis
Collaborate with design teams to implement design-for-reliability (DFR) guidelines and aging-aware simulation methodologies
Leverage models to establish design constraints and lifetime projections
Collaborate with post-silicon reliability teams to characterize products through Wafer Level Stress, Burn-In, HTOL, device parametric guardband, and post-silicon screening strategies
Drive understanding of Intrinsic and Extrinsic Silicon reliability mechanisms, Design-Process interactions, and acceleration models
Correlate pre-silicon modeling outputs with post-silicon measurements to refine lifetime projections and improve predictive accuracy
Enhance internal reliability modeling infrastructure to automate data collection, lifetime prediction, and statistical reliability analysis
Communicate across design, technology, test, and product teams to influence system-level reliability performance
