Key Responsibilities
- Design and Development
- Create advanced IC package designs including FlipChip BGA, FCCSP, WLCSP, Fan-In/Fan-Out using Cadence/APD tools.
- 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
