Position: Staff Product Engineer, BMS

Job Description

The Staff Product Engineer for BMS is a highly experienced and technically proficient role responsible for the successful characterization, qualification, and high-volume manufacturing release of BMS ICs for automotive applications. The ideal candidate will be a technical leader with deep knowledge of automotive quality and safety standards (AEC-Q100, APQP, ISO 26262) and a strong understanding of IC design, test, and manufacturing processes.

This role is a critical link between the design, test, applications, and quality assurance teams, ensuring that the BMS IC meets all functional, performance, and reliability requirements throughout its lifecycle.

Key Responsibilities

Product Qualification and Reliability:
- Lead and manage the qualification of new BMS products, ensuring compliance with automotive standards such as AEC-Q100 for stress qualification.
- Develop, execute, and oversee comprehensive product reliability plans.
Characterization and Validation:
- Develop and implement characterization plans to fully test and validate the performance of BMS ICs, covering all features and operating conditions.
- Work closely with design and test engineers to create robust and efficient test programs for both characterization and high-volume manufacturing.
Statistical Data Analysis:
- Apply advanced statistical analysis techniques to product data for process monitoring, yield optimization, and test limit definition.
- Utilize statistical tools to identify and resolve performance and reliability issues.
Automotive Quality and Functional Safety:
- Serve as the product expert for Advanced Product Quality Planning (APQP) activities, including Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA), Control Plans, and Production Part Approval Process (PPAP) documentation.
- Drive functional safety (ISO 26262) compliance by supporting safety mechanism validation, fault injection testing, and reporting as part of the overall IC safety case.
Problem Solving and Failure Analysis:
- Lead cross-functional teams in the analysis of customer returns and production test failures to identify root causes and implement effective corrective actions.
- Utilize techniques such as 8D methodology for formal problem-solving and reporting.
Cross-Functional Collaboration:
- Act as the primary technical interface for customers, application engineers, design teams, and test engineers.
- Provide technical support during product integration and production ramp-up.

Qualifications

Education:
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, or a related field.
Experience:
- 10+ years of relevant experience in product or test engineering for automotive semiconductor ICs.
- Extensive experience with BMS ICs or similar power/analog ICs for automotive applications.
Technical

Skills:
- Deep understanding of automotive standards, including AEC-Q100, APQP, PPAP, and ISO 26262.
- Proficiency in statistical analysis tools and methodologies for IC data.
- Strong knowledge of IC fabrication, assembly, and testing processes.
Soft Skills:
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills for collaboration with internal and external teams.
- Proven ability to lead technical teams and drive complex projects to completion.
- Exceptional problem-solving abilities and a data-driven approach to decision-making.
