IC Package Integration Engineer

Description:
Our team is seeking a highly motivated IC Package Integration Engineer to lead IC package manufacturing integration, yield, quality, and supply continuity for next-generation AI compute platforms. This role sits at the intersection of package design, manufacturing process development, and supply chain integration, ensuring advanced semiconductor packages transition smoothly from engineering builds into high-volume production.
In this highly visible role, the engineer will collaborate closely with EE, SI/PI, thermal/mechanical, reliability, and package design teams to review package architectures, identify manufacturability risks early, and ensure robust design-for-manufacturing implementation. This role does not own end-to-end IC package design. However, strong hands-on experience in package and substrate design is critical to effectively assess design decisions, identify potential design limitations, and ensure designs are optimized for high-volume manufacturing. The ideal candidate can bridge design intent with manufacturing reality and proactively flag issues before they impact yield, reliability, or scalability.
The engineer will interface with material suppliers, substrate vendors, foundry partners, and OSAT assembly/test vendors, driving process capability, yield improvement, and scalable manufacturing.

Responsibilities:
Lead SoC package integration and high-volume manufacturing readiness, including ownership of OSAT/Foundry manufacturing processes
Partner with OSAT/Foundry vendors to bring advanced packaging solutions from concept through qualification into high-volume manufacturing, with ownership of process capability, yield, quality, and ramp execution
Drive package-level yield improvement, failure analysis, and reliability investigations, resolving issues across OSAT, substrate, and material suppliers
Interface with substrate manufacturers and laminate suppliers to ensure stack-up integrity, manufacturability, and yield stability
Review IC package and substrate designs using EDA tools (e.g., Cadence Allegro Package Designer or equivalent), identifying design-for-manufacturability risks and ensuring seamless transition into production
Evaluate and provide feedback on substrate stack-ups, via architectures (including DCTV, TTV), routing density, and power delivery structures, ensuring alignment between design and manufacturing constraints
Collaborate with design teams to define and enforce design-for-manufacturing (DFM) guidelines across package architecture and substrate layout

Requirements:
Master’s Degree in Engineering, or related field, or equivalent experience
7+ years of experience in semiconductor packaging (2D/2.5D/3D etc.) spanning manufacturing integration and exposure to package or substrate design
Hands-on experience with IC package or substrate design concepts, including substrate layout and routing fundamentals, via architecture and stack-up considerations, familiarity with test vehicle structures such as DCTV, TTV, or similar and experience with EDA tools such as: Cadence Allegro Package Designer or related
Strong understanding of advanced packaging technologies, including flip-chip BGA, high-density substrates, multi-die integration, and high-power packages
Hands-on experience with OSAT assembly processes (die attach, underfill, lid attach, ball attach, warpage control)
Understanding of substrate materials and laminate systems, including CCL, glass fiber, and copper foil interactions
Experience driving high-volume manufacturing ramp, yield improvement, and failure analysis
Strong problem-solving skills with a data-driven approach
