Sr. ASIC Sustaining Engineer, Kuiper Silicon Sustaining Engineering
Project Kuiper is Amazon's initiative to launch a constellation of Low Earth Orbit communications satellites that will provide low-latency, high-speed broadband connectivity to underserved communities around the earth.
The Kuiper Engineering team is seeking a detailed oriented, results-driven, customer-centric Sr.
ASIC New Product Planner with experience in pre-production development and manufacture of semiconductor integrated circuit (IC) chips for digital and analog ASICs and SOCs.
ASICs are the foundation of Kuiper's innovative aerospace and terrestrial networking infrastructure equipment and data services.
The Sr.
ASIC new product planner is a key design engineering team member who is responsible to manage all aspects of Kuiper's ASIC engineering sample work-order definition, execution and downstream logistical supply fulfilment from initial design release, through qualification into mass production transfer that accelerates time-to-market velocity on behalf of making life improving impact to customers around the globe.
The ideal candidate possesses deep knowledge of all phases of the end-to-end semiconductor IC product lifecycle, development methodologies and manufacturing flows/dependencies/cycle-times from post-GDSII tape-out through wafer foundry, package substrate fabrication, into OSAT contract manufacturing applying module technologies such as FCBGAs, CSP, WLP, QNFs, SIPs.
They combine a hands-on background of sample supply/demand operations planning with demonstrated experience executing technical interdependencies of NPI engineering builds including DFM rule checks, in-line process monitors yield data engineering review and material lot release, configuration management lot controls, assembly build instructions, and wafer probe/final class test route and binning.
The successful candidate will be able to lead aligning both external vendor engineering and internal engineering teams in complex build and delivery logistics plans for on-time deployments, identify and mitigate execution schedule risks, ensure quality specification adherence, and provide status reporting and project health metrics.
To be successful you are proactive, owner who is comfortable operating independently.
You are passionate about semiconductors, NPI, and Kuiper's prospective customer and societal impact.
You are excited by solving difficult challenges and contributing to launching a space-craft and user terminal network that meet performance, quality, and availability objectives.
Export Control Requirement:
Due to applicable export control laws and regulations, candidates must be a U.
S.
citizen or national, U.
S.
permanent resident (i.
e.
, current Green Card holder), or lawfully admitted into the U.
S.
as a refugee or granted asylum.
Key job responsibilitiesIn this role you will:
Travel to Asia Supplier sites ( for sustaining engineering in ASIC Backend Operations, OSAT Testing and Assembly, Substrate.
Budget and negotiate OSAT CAPEX investments, including testers and fixtures.
Analyze foundry WAT (wafer acceptance test) data from production lots and publish reports highlighting concerns, if any.
Conduct yield analysis and ensure robust yield and quality for new products, while maintaining aggressive time to market schedules using data analysis tools and publish reports for engineering and management review.
Conduct failure analysis, and drive issue resolutions as well as address potential test gaps and correlations issues throughout the supply and manufacturing chains.
Sustain high volume production RF and high-speed digital die probing techniques to improve accuracy of identifying good dice and improve yield.
Interact with suppliers such as foundries and OSATs to complete engineering programs for wafer test, final test, and qualification.
Identify root cause and collaborate with design, test and package engineering to drive fix for qual failures.
Conduct QBRs with suppliers and identify issues and improvement plans.
A day in the lifeHere at Amazon, we embrace our differences.
We are committed to furthering our culture of inclusion.
Amazon has ten employee-led affinity groups, reaching 40,000 employees in over 190 chapters globally.
We have innovative benefit offerings, and host annual and ongoing learning experiences.
Amazon's culture of inclusion is reinforced within our 16 Leadership Principles, which remind team members to seek diverse perspectives, learn and be curious and earn trust.
Mentorship & Career GrowthOur team is dedicated to supporting new members.
We have a broad mix of experience levels and tenures, and we're building an environment that celebrates knowledge sharing and mentorship.
We care about your career growth and strive to assign projects based on what will help each team member develop into a better-rounded professional and enable them to take on more complex tasks in the future.
Innovation is part of our DNA! Our goal is to be Earth's most customer-centric company, and we are just getting started.
We need people who want to join an ambitious program that continues to push the state of the art in space based systems design and wireless systems.
About the teamThe position works in a fast-paced, dynamic start-up environment, collaborating closely with a versatile team of specialized IC industry product design engineers spanning wafer fabrication technology process, package substrates, chip module assembly, ATE test, and qualification disciplines to ensure pre-production technical manufacturing flows and sample build plans are defined and executed on schedule.
They coordinate deliverable linkages across teams including NRE tooling, wafer start, to die probe test to down-stream OSAT build processing across configuration, routing instruction, cycle time, capacity and yield constraints ensuring sample supply feeds engineering validation teams with no limiters to sample availability health.
As such, the Sr.
ASIC new product planner will document and oversee internal and external vendor teams, set manufacturing engineering deadlines, make task ownership assignments, will drive core-team coordination meetings, will identify and mitigate execution risks, will coordinate multiple work-stream input/out dependencies, will prepare product schedules focused on manufacturing flows and timelines, drive progress toward target commit schedules, and prepare status reports for engineering executive leadership.
We are open to hiring candidates to work out of one of the following locations:
Redmond, WA, USA.
Estimated Salary: $20 to $28 per hour based on qualifications.
