Job Description: The   Sr. Staff Integration Engineer   is responsible for   defining,   optimizing , and sustaining end-to-end process integration flows for probe card manufacturing in a high-volume semiconductor environment. This role serves as a senior technical authority, integrating complex unit processes across wafer-level fabrication, MEMS, precision assembly, interconnect, and electrical test.  

The position drives yield performance, manufacturability, and scalability by aligning cross-functional engineering, operations, and product teams. The role   operates   with significant autonomy, leading cross-module problem solving, technology transfer, and continuous improvement initiatives, while mentoring engineers and influencing integration strategy across sites.  

This role acts as the primary technical interface between process modules, ensuring integrated process flows meet product, quality, and reliability requirements.

Key Responsibilities:

Process Integration Ownership  

• Define, own, and continuously improve end-to-end process integration flows for probe card manufacturing  

• Ensure alignment of unit process performance to product-level electrical, mechanical, and reliability targets  

• Identify   and manage integration risks, interactions, and trade-offs across modules  

Yield & Performance Optimization  

• Lead integration-level yield improvement initiatives using data-driven analysis and structured problem solving  

• Investigate complex yield excursions, defect mechanisms, and cross-process interactions  

• Drive defect reduction, process capability improvements, and cycle time reduction  

New Product Introduction (NPI) & Technology Transfer  

• Lead integration activities for NPI, pilot builds, and ramp to high-volume manufacturing  

• Own integration readiness criteria including process stability, control plans, and manufacturability  

• Support cross-site technology transfer and process replication with strong change control discipline  

Process Flow Development & Control  

• Develop and   maintain   integrated process flows, specifications, and control strategies  

• Define critical process parameters, control points, and monitoring strategies (SPC/FDC)  

• Ensure robust process window characterization and documentation  

Cross-Functional Technical Leadership  

• Act as the technical integration interface across Process, Equipment, Product, Yield, Quality, and Manufacturing teams  

• Influence design for manufacturability ( DfM ) and design for reliability ( DfR )  

• Partner with operations on process stability, tool readiness, and production performance  

Data Analysis & Problem Solving  

• Analyze inline, electrical test, metrology, and defect data to   identify   integration gaps  

• Design and execute complex DOEs to resolve multi-variable process interactions  

• Utilize structured methodologies (DMAIC, 8D) for root cause analysis  

Change Management & Governance  

• Evaluate, approve, and implement changes to processes, materials, equipment, and flows  

• Ensure compliance with change control processes, qualification standards, and documentation requirements  

• Maintain traceability and configuration control across process changes  

Mentorship & Technical Influence  

• Mentor and guide junior and senior engineers on integration practices and problem solving  

• Provide technical leadership on cross-functional and multi-site initiatives  

• Influence long-term integration strategy and technology roadmap  

Skills: 8D Report, 8D Report, Change Management, Cross-Functional Groups, Cross-Functional Work, Data Analysis, Defect Metrology, Defect Reduction, Defects Analysis, Design for Manufacturing (DFM), Design for Reliability (DFR), Design of Experiments (DOE), DMAIC, DMAIC Process Improvement, Electrical Failure Analysis, Electrical Validation, Electroplating, Etching, Failure Analysis, Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES), Manufacturing Scale-Up, MES Integration, Metrology, Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS), New Product Introduction (NPI) {+ 18 more}
