Descripción

OBJECTIVE:

Implement standard fault analysis (FA) procedures to quickly and effectively resolve product failure issues, identify root causes, follow up on improvement solutions, and drive final problem resolution, aiming to improve the first pass yield (FPY) and the final yield (PY) of products.

MAIN RESPONSIBILITIES:

  • Creation of the FACA team/resources/plan: During the project evaluation phase, assess the sufficiency of resources based on the complexity and needs of the project, and develop solutions and plans.
  • Classification and categorization of defective products: Confirm defects and create issue orders; classify defective products based on the defect phenomenon and carry out localization analysis according to FA specifications.
  • Failure cause analysis: Determine FA steps based on FA specifications and SOP, perform failure cause analysis on defective products, identify root causes, update information in the FACA system, and issue the FACA Report.
  • Root cause (RC) confirmation and issue transfer: Evaluate the standardization and logic of the FA process, confirm the root cause, coordinate with the area responsible for the issue to confirm and transfer it, and timely develop/update the next FA plan.
  • Functional performance improvement: Based on functional performance anomaly alerts from the system, analyze the causes of anomalies, lead the analysis and improvement of functional performance, complete and close the anomaly work orders.
  • Rework capability: Develop rework SOP for components according to rework specifications; master the use of rework machines, chip reballing techniques, and fly wire processes.
  • FACA review: Organize internal FACA meetings, review and dynamically update the Main Issue List, and coordinate with relevant areas to present RC, CA (Corrective Actions), and verification plans to the client.
  • Confirmation of typical issues: Organize project lessons-learned reviews, identify typical issue orders, and mark them in the FACA system.
  • Rework process construction: Coordinate rework evaluation, participate in the creation or review of rework BOP (Bill of Process) changes, evaluate rework plans, and issue documents such as rework work instructions and rework process flowcharts.

JOB SPECIFICATIONS

  • Skills: Proficiency with failure analysis equipment (multimeter, oscilloscope, spectrum analyzer, etc.); solid knowledge of electronic circuits; proficiency in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and other office tools; ability to analyze and summarize defect data using charts; ability to produce CPK.
  • Other requirements: Responsible and proactive work ethic, with a sense of accountability and high tolerance to pressure; good adaptability and technical vision; quality management awareness; knowledge of ISO9001/IATF16949/ESD standards and quality tools such as APQP/PPAP/FMEA/MSA/SPC; information security awareness and confidentiality.
  • Desirable (optional) qualifications: Knowledge of EHS standards such as ISO14001/ISO45001, relevant job risk identification, and emergency measures. Awareness of intellectual property management and prevention of patent infringement risks.

REQUIRED ACADEMIC QUALIFICATIONS: University degree (bachelor's) or higher; degrees related to Electronics, Software, Acoustics, Radiofrequency, or Optics are preferred.

REQUIRED EXPERIENCE: Minimum of 1 year of experience in product rework in the electronic manufacturing industry; experience in product design, analysis, processes, or mass production introduction, especially in consumer electronic products.

LANGUAGES: Intermediate - advanced English proficiency
