Failure Analysis and Reliability Engineer
Location: Northern Vietnam

Responsibilities
•    Major role is to lead all failure analysis activities on site in contract manufacturer factory. 
•    Provide necessary technical advice to the factory/ external failure analysis lab to categorize the failure, deliver a precise report and provide effective mitigation steps. 
•    Key player in NPI phase product development. Working closely with the engineering team in US, VN and HK on new product assembly and testing in the factory. 
•    Drive the failure analysis process for all failures discovered from reliability testing and production fallout. 
•    Analyze designs, reliability or yield failures down to a root cause, involving state-of-the-art analytical tools, processing acquired data and information sets to arrive at acceptable conclusion regarding the cause of failure 
•    Responsible for failure analysis (FA) requests related to new product qualification, process improvement, and customer complaint & measurable 
•    Review new products through the DfX process. Wear the product quality hat to derive reliability test plan to address items identified in DfX process. 
•    Execute & monitor the test status then providing comprehensive regular feedback to management. Ensure the test status, actions required are able to align with product development critical dates. 
•    Lead a team of engineers (Reliability, Quality and Production) at contract manufacturer to address issues from reliability test or production line 
•    As the technical expertise in Reliability Assessment at onsite factory, provide technical guidance to derive mitigation plan for issues happening in production or Reliability Test. 
•    Continuously optimizing a cost effective reliability plans based on failure analysis knowledge database and field return data.
