Reporting to the first-level manager of the PCIe Input/output (I/O) Interface: based in Austin, Texas, with 5 direct reports.• Led initiatives that increased team efficiency by optimizing workflows and developing a collaborative culture. • Promoted networking within the team and across departments, enhancing collaboration and improving synergy across the business unit. This initiative optimized overall productivity by 10%.

Team leadership with 4 direct reports, led hardware planning, validation strategy development, test planning and execution, cross functional collaboration, problem solving and innovation, Team Development, Coaching, Team Enabler.• Mentored and developed a team of 4 junior engineers, resulting in a 50% increase in promotions within the team and increasing overall productivity.• Designed and implemented the topology connection of PCIe test cards within test systems, using a 2:1 methodology. This approach resulted in a 30% reduction in test card population, reducing costs.• Identified two critical silicon bugs early in the project, leading to a silicon fix that prevented potential issues from reaching customers. This discovery significantly reduced future debugging time.• Led the development of test content, validation strategy, debug strategy, and execution strategy for the PCIe team on the Emerald Rapids program (5th Generation Xeon CPUs), delivering results four weeks ahead of schedule.

Validation strategy development, test planning and execution, debug and triage of failures, expertise areas PCIe, Virtualization, Graphics.• Collaborated in the development of the 'End-User Day in the Life' test suite, simulating typical end-user scenarios on a laptop to ensure realistic functional validation. This increased test coverage by 30%, improving the accuracy of our testing process and reducing potential user issues.• Enabled Intel Media Server Studio at Intel GDC for functional validation, overcoming a lack of expertise and leading to formal recognition from Intel.• Recognized for maintaining active participation in documentation and follow-up within our issue tracking system, ensuring accurate records and timely resolution of issues.• Led Entry server team “XEON E3” in charge of 7 engineers, after one year at Intel.

Conducted failure analysis and root cause determination of issues, including field failures. Led Level 1 and Level 2 failure analysis, generated yield reports, developed scripts and tools, drove process improvements, supported team development.• Contributed to the training of technicians providing support to production lines, resulting in a 15% reduction in defective units reaching the diagnostics area.• Developed shell scripts to automate manual processes, reducing the time needed to return units to production by 80%.- Conduct failure analysis of defective products to determine the root cause.- Generate yield reports and conduct analysis.- Provide support and training to FA technicians and the production line.- Perform failure analysis at the component level (field failures).- Develop software tools (shell scripts) to assist FA1 & FA2.- Research and develop analysis methods.- Track Jira tickets and quality incidents.- Provide feedback and collaborate with other departments to propose corrective and preventive actions for issues.- Coordinate the FA1 area.

Tests execution, debug level 0, escalated issues to second level debug, and provided production line support.• Contributed to a 15% reduction in the accumulation of faulty units by quickly understanding and addressing issues.
