• Perform electrical FA using Automated Test Equipment (ATE) and fault isolation work at silicon level.
• Collaborate with Device Analysis and Product Engineering teams for in-depth package/die-level investigations, fault isolation, and root cause analysis.
• Investigate Excursion and Critical Issues, supporting DPPM (VF/NFF) improvement initiatives.
• Drive test coverage analysis and enhancements to improve failure detection and mitigation.
• Partner with validation, firmware, and hardware teams to resolve hardware, software, and platform issues.
• Innovate, prototype, and evaluate new FA tools to improve GPU failure analysis capabilities.
• Develop functional automation environments for test and stress software to enhance debug efficiency.
• Provide technical assistance, resources, and equipment to support engineering teams in testing and debugging activities.
• Plan, set up, and install server racks with air and liquid cooling capabilities for advanced test infrastructure.
• Work closely with program managers and product line quality (PLQ)/customer Interacting teams to align failure analysis report writing with external customer communication.
• Document debug findings, root cause analysis, and corrective actions in clear, concise technical reports.
• Serve as the local product owner, responsible for tracking and releasing ATE, SLT, and OSV test programs related to RMA and OSV programs.
• Act as the Go-To technical expert for owned products, supporting test program contents, FA methodologies, and customer queries.
• Proactively identify opportunities for process improvement, code quality enhancements, and hardware coverage expansion.
• Other duties as assigned by supervisor.
