• Develop bonding diagrams, bump diagrams, and package outline drawings.

• Ensure designs meet electrical, thermal, and mechanical requirements.

• Simulation and Analysis

• Conduct feasibility studies and perform electrical and thermal simulations.

• Collaborate with SI/PI engineers to validate design integrity.

• Documentation and Process Management

• Generate and maintain design specifications and documentation.

• Manage NRE PO creation and document routing through the Document Management System (DMS).

• Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Interface with internal teams (design, test, assembly, reliability) and external partners (substrate vendors, OSATs).

• Support technical inquiries and provide design guidance throughout the product lifecycle.

• Project Leadership

• Lead technical discussions and drive project execution from concept to production.

• Ensure timely delivery of design milestones and support continuous improvement initiatives.

Preferred Skills & Qualifications
