As an NVIDIAN, you’ll be immersed in a diverse, supportive environment where everyone is inspired to do their best work. Come join the team and see how you can make a lasting impact on the world.
We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated FA engineer to join us. You will play a leading role developing Chip-Debug and Fault-Isolation via Electron-Beam-Probing. This will include experimentation, guiding development of custom supporting HW, workflow development, and training of other users. You will be embedded in the Logic-Fault-Isolation group and work closely with our test HW group, mechanical design, and tool vendors.
What You’ll Be Doing:
- Lead the enablement of eBP on today's and future technology nodes based on experimentation with different test-chips and existing products, to get ready for future product support.
- You will need to understand our optical FI workflow and work with our PFA team to guide sample-preparation development.
- Your responsibilities will include workflow development, user training, and collaboration with the eBP tool vendors, driving SW & HW improvements and new feature development.
- Additionally, you will work with NVIDIA internal HW designers and external vendors regarding the development of suitable test- and cooling-HW.
What We Need To See:
- Master's degree or higher in Electrical Engineering, Microelectronics, Physics, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
- Minimum of 8 years of experience in FA, at best with hands-on experience in technique enablement and development of supporting HW for Fault-Isolation and/or vacuum-based microscopic systems (e.g. SEM).
- Knowledge of failure analysis techniques and methodologies.
- Basic understanding of scan-chain based test (DFT) and some experience in operation of Automated Test Equipment (at best on Advantest 93k).
- Strong understanding of semiconductor device physics, IC design, and fabrication processes.
- Experience with EDA (Electronic Design Automation) tools and layout editing software.
- Strong problem-solving skills with the ability to diagnose and resolve complex circuit issues.
Ways To Stand Out From The Crowd:
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to effectively collaborate with multi-functional teams.
