NVM Reliability Engineer

Job description

Job Description

In this position, you will be working as a member of the Non-Volatile Memory NVM Solutions Group's NSG's Technology Development Quality and Reliability team, helping to develop Intel's new emerging NVM technologies such as 3D NAND and 3D XPointTM and SSD products, focusing on NVM reliability.

Your responsibilities will include but not limited to: Determining reliability requirements and technology targets of components and systems to achieve company, customer and other reliability objectives. Designing and executing experiments to identify, segment, characterize and model NVM reliability mechanisms. Developing empirical and physics-based predictive reliability modeling methods and tools for reliability risk assessments. Developing new acceleration techniques, test methods and analytical tools to provide fast and effective feedback for reliability process optimization Influencing design, process, product, test and/or system solutions in order to enable aggressive scaling of Intel's NVM technologies and exploration of novel memory cells. Developing the appropriate process- andproduct-qualificationstress methods and criteria. You may be expected to lead small cross-functional and cross-company groups of engineers on multi-disciplinary technical projects to solve complex reliability issues- such as, during technology development and ramp to high-volume manufacturing.

The ideal candidate will have the ability for systematic analytical problem solving. Demonstrated creativity and innovation in solving technical problems. Affinity for cross -disciplinary work performance skills. Demonstrated attention to details and quality of the work. Demonstrated persistence and commitment to task. Ability to clearly communicate achieved results and to influence wide range of audiences. Demonstrated leadership to assume the authority and advocate for new ideas. Ability to work well in a team setting with people from a wide range of backgrounds. Ability to understand the high level picture and apply systems thinking to generate solutions.
