Develop and ramp CMOS image sensor and ASIC products from tape-out through mass production. Collaborate with design, test, reliability, packaging, foundry, and quality teams on product validation, characterization, yield improvement, process optimization, failure analysis, testing programs, and customer issue resolution. Analyze wafer- and chip-level electrical data, define production specifications, support automotive compliance, and drive continuous improvement throughout the product lifecycle.
• Work on new product introduction and ramp-up of CMOS Image Sensors (CIS) and ASIC products from initial tape-out to mass production.
• Collaborate with design, test, reliability, and packaging teams to troubleshoot issues and support product development.
• Perform design rule checks and product validation to ensure robust product design; defining new product process criteria and GDS checks for tape-out.
• Develop comprehensive product characterization and testing plans with R&D and foundry teams to ensure products performance meets requirements.
• Ensure product roadmap success by identifying improvement opportunities through physical/electrical failure analysis, process optimization and defect reduction.
• Access pixel performance through statistical analysis of electrical and functional metrics at both wafer- and chip-level testing.
• Work with quality engineers to address customer complaints, implement corrective actions, and track improvements after solution implemented to minimize field returns.
• Collaborate with different foundries to optimize processes, including silicon, color and packaging processes, enhancing overall product performance.
• Work with testing engineers to develop, verify, and release CP and FT testing programs; perform sensors validation on manual testing board.
• Improve product yield by process and layout optimization; analyze yield data and drive improvement actions.
• Define production testing specifications, ensure product yield on target, and reduce process and test fluctuating issue for timely ramp-up.
• Ensure products meet AEC Q-100 standards and other relevant automotive specifications.
• Work with foundries to drive continuous yield enhancements, continuous improvement plans (CIP), and best-known-methods (BKM) updates throughout the product lifecycle.
• Deliver cutting-edge CIS solutions for the automotive industry.
