The Silicon Operations team’s vision is to enable a world class Silicon Supply Chain Operations to service Silicon component needs of Cisco’s core business as well as the emerging Components business. We are an exciting team that works in a fast-paced, start-up type environment with a mission to scale Cisco's Silicon-One business.

What You'll Do

• prior to volume production release.

• Analyze data and lifetime assessments by applying device parameter trends and apply acceleration models to predict reliability in the field.

· In the pursuit of customer satisfaction, you will work with design, foundry interface, package, test, and product engineers to qualify new processes and package technologies to ensure quality of design performance to meet customer reliability requirements.

• You are the lead quality representative on failure analysis investigations using structured problem-solving methods to engage a cross-functional team to diagnose, resolve, and prevent future problems, issuing internal and external product qualification and FA reports.

• debug for reliability qualification and evaluation in concert with Product Engineering and Operations team members.

• debug for reliability qualification and evaluation in concert with Product Engineering and Operations team members.

Who You'll Work With

You will work with the Product Development team, Product Engineering, Customer Quality Engineering, Product Operation, Manufacturing Operation and Outsource Manufacturing partners to ensure product quality meet or exceed the target quality and reliability requirements and performance metrics that are committed to the business. You will have the ability to inspire change and improve product quality in collaboration with a diverse multi-functional team while making a difference to Silicon One's customers.

Who You Are

You are a highly organized quality professional with technical knowledge and hands on experiences in Semiconductor manufacturing. You excel at data analytics and can transform and model data with the goal of discovering useful information, suggesting conclusions, and supporting decision-making. You have good knowledge and understand how to measure and improve quality. You can apply your knowledge in quality methodologies and tools to lead individuals and teams to determine root cause of failures and ensure implementation of closed loop action. You can distill technical risk and provide an assessment and recommended path forward to maintain customer satisfaction and the quality of Silicon One products. You can also determine if appropriate screens or containment actions should be implemented based on failure mechanism and data analysis until such time that long term corrective action(s) are put in place. You can prepare technical reports and detailed failure analysis, summarize key take-aways, and communicate overall quality status with cross functional teams in an effective manner. You are experienced with change management/implementation, qualifications, and product or process transitions. You help lead the organization from a reactive to a proactive culture to meet internal and external customer requirements. You work well with functional groups at all levels to address and resolve critical product and customer issues.
