New Product Introduction:• Develop prototype characterization and test plans to ensure conformance to datasheet specifications over process. • Statistically analyze bench and test data to identify any design weaknesses. Perform margin analysis, capability analysis, and correlation studies for manufacturing feasibility.• Create production test limits and manage test development activities; generate yield enhancement plans. • Create product documentation and drive BOM and routing implementation• Influence the design for manufacturability, design for test, design for reliability to reduce overall costs of production.• Served as project leader for several new product developments. Facilitated team meetings and managed all deadlines to ensure products were successfully introduced to market on time with the utmost qualityManufacturing & Operations:• Monitor production yields; use data-driven cost-benefit analysis to realize cost reductions and improve product yields.• Interface with process, package, and test engineers to resolve problems that occur during wafer fabrication, packaging, wafer sort, and final test processes• Drive the resolution of internal & external quality issues (field returns, non-conformances, etc)• Support offshoring efforts; drive correlation exercise, analyze data, and write qualification reports.• Demonstrate excellent work ethic, often working long hours to ensure that customer parts are shipped on time.

Completed 16 month academic internship.• Involved in bench electrical characterization of serial digital video transport chips. Completed initial feasibility studies for various new product introductions. Worked with Labview to automate testing equipment at different conditions. Resolved many circuit and hardware issues. • Performed failure analysis of customer returns to identify root cause. Prepared reports for customer release. Coordinated with design team to drive root cause investigations. • Created JMP scripts to automate data analysis to increase the efficiency in which vast amounts of characterization data could be analyzed.• Statistically analyzed electrical characterization and test data to facilitate datasheet validation and determine long term produceability of newly developed chips going to volume production.• Performed long term yield analysis studies to identify areas of improvement.• Generated manufacturing documentation used to define and document testing of parts in production.
