The Engineer Failure Analysis position in Lenzburg offers an exciting opportunity to join a highly motivated team focused on semiconductor failure analysis. The role involves conducting complex analyses to determine failure mechanisms in semiconductors, supporting Research & Development and Product Engineering teams, and improving analysis techniques in the laboratory. This position requires a solid understanding of analysis methods and the use of specialist equipment.

• Analyze failed devices from internal tests in order to improve yield and reliability
• Perform in-depth investigations of customer returns, using REM/EDX, profilometers, electrical measurement techniques, spreading resistance profiling (SRP), etc.
• Support troubleshooting and improvement teams within production and R&D
• Improve electrical and physical analysis techniques as well as chemical preparation processes

• Master's degree in natural sciences (TU, FH, ETH, or similar)
• Preferably professionals with more than three years of lab experience, but we also welcome applications from highly motivated graduates who have completed their PhD thesis
• Knowledge of standard failure analysis methods such as SEM/EDX, optical microscopy, hot-spot analysis, electrical characterization, SAM and spreading resistance profiling
• Experience in failure analysis of semiconductor chips and components (including packaging and materials) is desirable
• Fluent in German and English, both written and spoken
