Staff Electrical Engineer

Are you passionate about solving technical challenges and diving deep into failure analysis for cutting-edge automotive microcontroller products? Do you enjoy working in a collaborative environment, mentoring others, and building long-term technical expertise? As a Staff Electrical Failure Analysis Engineer, you will play a critical role in understanding and reproducing customer-reported failures, performing detailed analysis, and driving solutions for improvement. As a Staff Electrical Failure Analysis Engineer, you will be responsible for customer return analysis for automotive microcontroller products. You will work on understanding and reproducing customer-reported failures, performing in-depth technical analyses using advanced tools and equipment, and providing expert guidance to ensure efficient resolution and continuous improvement. Define the failure origin as well as further analysis steps and perform the analysis using a test bench while also guiding and mentoring other colleagues throughout the process Use, adapt and develop our functional tests (i.e. application pattern) for reproducing the failure at our evaluation board Drive analysis reports and perform continuous updates to enable our "customer complaint organization" to provide regular status updates to our customers Generate special test cases for the localization of defects in the device for Physical Failure Analysis preparation Define concepts for test program improvements if required Build up a technical focus area where you are our most experienced engineer, e.g. Non-Volatile-Memory (NVM), SRAM, Mixed-signal / analog, High-Speed-Interfaces or test-program development Note : This job is in electrical failure engineering, not in physical failure analysis. This role involves electrical measuring the device, no chemical or optical activities. Finally, you help creating an open and collaborative work environment and your deep technical expertise enables you to train and mentor your colleagues. A Bachelor or Master degree in Electrical Engineering or Physics or other technical fields At least 3 or more years of working experience in electrical failure analysis or a similar field Proven experience in electrical measurement methods: Knowledge in software development for (automotive) microcontroller applications Experience in microcontroller programming with C, Perl or Python Fluent in English , Italian would be an advantage Please send us your CV in English.
