Senior Electro-optic Assembly Process Engineer

Senior Electro-optic Assembly Process Engineer

Requirements

• Hands-on experience with assembly processes such as die attach, wire bonding, optical coupling, underfill, fiber attachment, substrate handling, and advanced material handling.
• Proficiency in process characterization, process monitoring, and statistical process control (SPC) and metrology development, including measurement capability analysis techniques.
• Strong knowledge of PFMEA and risk mitigation methodologies.
• Familiarity with the interaction between assembly processes and PIC/EIC performance.
• Experience designing fixtures and handling tools for complex subassemblies.
• Strong skills in equipment specification, selection, and recipe development for assembly processes.
• Proven ability to lead root cause analysis and implement corrective actions for yield and quality improvements.
• Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Materials, Electrical Engineering, or a related field with 6+ years of experience; Master’s degree with 3+ years; or a Ph.D.

Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and optimize assembly processes for electro-optic packages, ensuring DFM and adherence to design rules.
• Collaborate with internal teams and external OSATs to enhance assembly process capabilities and flexibility.
• Prepare detailed work instructions, perform process characterization, and define success criteria for assembly processes.
• Establish and maintain a defect library, defining specifications to mitigate assembly-related failures.
• Conduct PFMEA, identify key risks, and implement effective mitigation strategies.
• Develop and deploy process monitoring methodologies, including measurement capability analysis.
• Characterize the impact of assembly processes on PIC/EIC performance and optimize processes to enhance system reliability and yield.
• Influence design and BOM selection decisions based on process capabilities and reliability expectations.
• Coordinate material handling and filtering tool designs to support complex subassembly assembly processes.
• Collaborate with operations and OSATs to align process improvements with production requirements.
• Partner with operations teams to define process equipment requirements, support selection and acquisition, and create process recipes.
• Train operations engineers and technicians to ensure smooth process transfer and readiness for production.
• Drive root cause analysis for yield loss and failures during manufacturing, qualification, or field use.
• Own and execute continuous improvement activities to enhance process performance, stability, and yield.
