  • At least 10 years of experience in integrated circuit packaging.
  • Hands-on experience with wafer bumping and dielectric materials, including their advantages and disadvantages.
  • Some hands-on knowledge of manufacturing assembly processes, including wafer back-grinding, wafer dicing, flip-chip die attach, encapsulation and molding, underfill, ball attach, package singulation, and tape and reel.
  • In-depth knowledge of wafer-level chip-scale packaging, including redistribution layers, wafer bumping, and back-end-of-line assembly processes for fan-in and fan-out designs.
  • Knowledge of package qualification and reliability testing.
  • Expert-level knowledge of common reliability failure modes, and ability to understand device physics and component- and board-level reliability testing.
  • A proven track record of taking a product or package from concept through development and into a high-volume manufacturing environment.
  • Ability to construct designs of experiments and down-select materials and processes.
  • Ability to conduct independent research and development with minimal supervision.

  • Deliver package and packaging milestones on time.
  • Define the packaging roadmap based on long-term packaged-product requirements.
  • Work closely with suppliers and manage their research and development activities.

Desired Qualifications
