* Interact regularly with the Marketing and Design groups to influence the design for manufacturability, design for test, design for reliability, ease of volume ramp and realization of NPI targets such as break-even time, yield, cost and quality
* Participate in decisions on the development or sourcing of technologies required for new products focusing on cost and manufacturability
* Review design implementation for manufacturability and testability
* Coordination of, and contributing to, test and characterization plans and device validation plans, working with the Test Development and Validation groups ensuring overall product compliance and manufacturability.
* Co-ordinate the product qualification planning, documentation and reporting
* Actively participate in the Design Reviews and Test Reviews to ensure the testability/manufacturability features were considered and implemented and that test quality and coverage is achieved.
* Perform capability analysis, margin analysis, correlation studies and yield modeling on new products
* Review and optimize coverage, test limits and guard banding
* Coordinate manufacturing documentation for production transfer and product maintenance
* Work with Production Process/Packaging Engineering in the resolution of problems that occur during wafer fabrication, packaging, die sort and final package test processes
* Drive the resolution of failure analysis, root cause and corrective actions for field returns
* Develop product specific failure analysis flow if appropriate
