The successful candidate will act as a company-wide expert in GaN intrinsic reliability, driving methodology, influencing design decisions, and ensuring robust product qualification across multiple programs.
Main responsibilities
Drive GaN intrinsic reliability strategy across 100V–650V technologies, ensuring alignment with product roadmaps.
Define and execute reliability qualification methodologies, including HTGB, HTRB, switching, and transient stress testing.
Lead physics-of-failure (PoF) investigations, identifying degradation mechanisms and driving root-cause resolution.
Develop and validate lifetime and reliability models (voltage, temperature, switching dependencies) for GaN devices.
Drive product de-risking activities in collaboration with design and product teams, ensuring early reliability coverage.
Provide technical leadership and decision-making authority on reliability risks, guardbands, and design recommendations.
Develop and enhance intrinsic reliability test infrastructure, including ATE-based and custom stress systems.
Define and advance next-generation reliability methodologies for GaN and wider WBG technologies (SiC, AlGaN, etc.).
Required skills
PhD or MSc in Physics, Electrical Engineering, or Semiconductor Engineering.
Typically 10+ years’ experience in semiconductor reliability with significant GaN or WBG focus required.
