Job Overview

We are seeking a skilled and experienced Hardware Reliability Engineer to support the qualification and production readiness of advanced CMOS Imaging Sensor (CIS) technologies. The ideal candidate will have a strong foundation in semiconductor physics, electronics, and reliability engineering. This role involves close collaboration across cross-functional teams and external foundries to ensure robust product performance and compliance with industry reliability standards.

Key Responsibilities

Design and debug hardware systems for evaluating product reliability under biased conditions. Evaluate and qualify CMOS Imaging Sensor (CIS) products to support mass production readiness. Collaborate with semiconductor foundries to assess, characterize, and optimize CIS manufacturing processes. Partner with R&D, design, process, packaging, and product engineering teams to: Qualify new process technologies. Ensure the reliability and quality of advanced CIS designs meet customer and market expectations. Generate and present internal qualification and evaluation reports. Deliver technical presentations to communicate project outcomes and address product-related issues. Prepare and publish product reliability release documentation.

Qualifications & Requirements
