Electrical Engineer, Silicon Reliability Test (Starlink)
On-siteBastrop, Texas, United States
Job Summary
Own package-level and wafer-level reliability qualification and testing of new silicon designs and manufacturing technologies for high-volume production, including HTOL, LTOL, TDDB, and ECM campaigns aligned with JEDEC standards. Develop custom test hardware, fixturing, and burn-in boards while designing PCBs and electrical interfaces for reliability test fixtures. Create software automation scripts in Python to control test equipment, log telemetry, and analyze large reliability datasets. Perform hands-on debugging and electrical characterization to drive root cause analysis of silicon, package, and interconnect failures. Coordinate failure investigations across silicon design, packaging, manufacturing, and reliability teams to communicate findings to leadership. Analyze reliability data using Weibull and acceleration models to predict field performance and drive design or process improvements for higher yield.
