Product Engineering Development Engineer BST

Job Description

The Product Engineering Development (PED) Engineer serves as the core MEMS sensor and systems specialist during the mass production phase, acting as the primary technical interface between Product Development and Mass Production. Operating within a global, technology-driven environment, the PED Engineer ensures product integrity, leads risk assessments, manages engineering changes, and guarantees seamless technical operations throughout the product lifecycle.

Key Responsibilities

• Monitor and review sensor performance in the series production phase; initiate and lead root-cause analysis for performance deviations by leveraging data analytics and coordinating comprehensive failure analysis.
• Lead risk assessments from the Ramp-Up (RU) phase onward, delivering high-quality Risk Assessment (RA) outcomes from Quality, Cost, and Delivery (QCD) perspectives.
• Manage and coordinate engineering changes from the Ramp-Up (RU) phase onward, organizing and leading the Change Control Board (CCB) as required.
• Oversee MEMS Ongoing Reliability Tests (ORT), defining the ORT scope based on specific project needs and executing it during series production.
• Provide robust technical support for customer complaints and application issues.
• During the product development phase, take ownership of engineering sample and ramp-up clearances to ensure a smooth, risk-free transition to high-volume manufacturing.
• Actively contribute to Task Forces (TF) and Focus Team (FT) investigations on demand.

Qualifications

Education & Experience

• Bachelor’s degree or higher in Semiconductors, Microelectronics, Physics, Electrical Engineering, or a related field (Master’s degree or higher preferred).
• At least 3 years of professional engineering experience in the semiconductor industry.

Languages & Communication

• High proficiency in written and spoken English, with strong communication skills.

Technical & Professional Skills

• Strong knowledge of risk management practices and formal risk assessment methodologies.
• Proven competency in systematic engineering problem-solving.
• Demonstrated capability to conduct deep-dive research and independent study on complex engineering topics.
• Familiarity with data analytics; practical experience with visualization tools like Spotfire or Tableau is a strong plus.
• Good understanding of semiconductor manufacturing technologies and processes (Fab, Assembly, Test).
• In-depth knowledge of MEMS technology and products, particularly pressure, magnetic, and acoustic sensors.
• Familiarity with semiconductor/MEMS qualification and validation methodologies, including JEDEC standards.
• Knowledge of or hands-on experience with AI applications in engineering fields is highly preferred.

Interpersonal & Soft Skills

• Self-motivated and proactive, with excellent coordination and stakeholder management skills.
• Ability to collaborate effectively within international and cross-functional teams.
• Flexibility and willingness to travel (primarily within Asia, with occasional travel to global Headquarters in Germany).
