Electrical Engineer II - Failure Analysis

Electrical Engineer II - Failure Analysis

The Electrical Analysis - Northeast section of the Materials & Process Engineering Department is seeking an individual to fulfill the role of an Electrical Engineer II - Failure Analysis. This position will support programs and their mission of performing electrical component evaluations and root cause failure analysis. This position requires the knowledge and basic understanding of electrical schematics, circuit analysis, digital processing, RF analysis, die level analysis, and the materials of electrical components (metal wire bonding, substrates, solder, adhesives, & encapsulants). The devices evaluated can range from simple passive devices to complex microcircuits as well as cables, connectors, motors, etc.

What You Will Do

• The position requires the ability to work through each step of an analysis, which may include external visual photo-documentation, electrical test, non-destructive troubleshooting, environmental testing, x-ray evaluation, destructive testing, decapsulation, cross-sections, internal visual photo-documentation, scanning electron microscope (SEM) evaluation, and writing a detailed final report.
• Learn and operate the available laboratory equipment such as microscopes, oscilloscopes, power supplies, multimeters, LCR analyzers, curve tracers, semiconductor parameter analyzers, spectrum analyzers, network analyzers, frequency generators, signal generators, power meters, hi-pot testers, megohmmeters, laser millers, plasma etchers, chemical jet etchers, bond puller, etc.
• Work on several analyses concurrently.
• Participating and collaboration across the department to work with engineers in other disciplines such as materials and chemistry.

Qualifications You Must Have

• Typically requires a A University Degree or equivalent experience and minimum 2 years of prior relevant experience, or An Advanced Degree in a related field.
• Experience in failure analysis
• Experience in using electrical test equipment.

Qualifications We Prefer

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering
• Knowledge of reading electrical schematics and circuit analysis
• Familiarity with component data sheets and drawings
• Data collection and presentation skills to write a cogent report, supporting the analysis conclusion and if necessary, present the data and findings
• Technical working knowledge of electrical components and their application

What We Offer

• Our values drive our actions, behaviors, and performance with a vision for a safer, more connected world. At RTX we value: Safety, Trust, Respect, Accountability, Collaboration, and Innovation.
