Full Job Posting

Key Responsibilities:

  • Assembly & Test Integration Leadership
  • Own integration strategy across all Assembly & Test operations including Solder paste printing, Surface mount technology (SMT), Pick-and-place assembly, reflow soldering, PCB assembly, Underfill and adhesive processes, Mechanical assembly, Alignment and calibration, Electrical verification, and Final product test.
  • Define process windows, acceptance criteria, and control plans for critical assembly operations.
  • Lead optimization of solder joint reliability, component placement accuracy, reflow profiles, coplanarity, and assembly yield.
  • Drive integration improvements between PCB design, assembly processes, probe structures, and final electrical performance.
  • Develop assembly flow architectures that support volume scalability, cycle-time reduction, and manufacturability.
  • Partner with contract manufacturers and internal assembly operations to ensure process consistency and technology transfer success.
  • Analyze assembly-related yield losses including solder defects, placement errors, opens, shorts, warpage, misalignment, and handling damage.
  • Establish qualification methodologies for assembly materials, solder alloys, adhesives, PCB technologies, and new assembly equipment.
  • Process Integration Ownership
  • Define, own, and continuously improve end-to-end process integration flows for probe card manufacturing.
  • Ensure alignment of unit process performance to product-level electrical, mechanical, and reliability targets.
  • Identify and manage integration risks, interactions, and trade-offs across modules.
  • Yield & Performance Optimization
  • Lead integration-level yield improvement initiatives using data-driven analysis and structured problem solving.
  • Investigate complex yield excursions, defect mechanisms, and cross-process interactions.
  • Drive defect reduction, process capability improvements, and cycle time reduction.
  • New Product Introduction (NPI) & Technology Transfer
  • Lead integration activities for NPI, pilot builds, and ramp to high-volume manufacturing.
  • Own integration readiness criteria including process stability, control plans, and manufacturability.
  • Support cross-site technology transfer and process replication with strong change control discipline.
  • Process Flow Development & Control
  • Develop and maintain integrated process flows, specifications, and control strategies.
  • Define critical process parameters, control points, and monitoring strategies (SPC/FDC).
  • Ensure robust process window characterization and documentation.
  • Data Analysis & Problem Solving
  • Analyze inline, electrical test, metrology, and defect data to identify integration gaps.
  • Design and execute complex DOEs to resolve multi-variable process interactions.
  • Utilize structured methodologies (DMAIC, 8D) for root cause analysis.
  • Mentorship & Technical Influence
  • Mentor and guide junior and senior engineers on integration practices and problem solving.
  • Provide technical leadership on cross-functional and multi-site initiatives.
  • Influence long-term integration strategy and technology roadmap.
  • Farmers Branch, TX
  • Benefits offered for this role include medical, dental, vision, EAP, short-term and long-term disability, life insurance, flexible spending and savings accounts, 401(k), ESPP and paid time off.
