Role

The CMOS FEOL Reliability Engineering Intern will support the Fab 8 Reliability Engineering organization in assessing semiconductor device reliability performance across advanced technology platforms. Essential

Responsibilities

Learn semiconductor device reliability fundamentals, including Hot Carrier Injection (HCI), Bias Temperature Instability (BTI), Time-Dependent Dielectric Breakdown (TDDB), Gate Oxide Integrity (GOI), and Process Reliability Monitoring (PRM). Support reliability qualification and monitoring activities for advanced CMOS technologies manufactured at Fab 8. Analyze wafer‑level reliability (WLR) and fast wafer‑level reliability (FWLR) test data using statistical and engineering methods.

Develop automated data‑analysis, reporting, dashboard, and visualization solutions that reduce manual reporting effort and improve visibility of reliability trends across multiple technology platforms. Perform data mining, trend analysis, comparative studies, and historical PRM correlation analysis to identify process and device factors that influence long‑term reliability performance. Develop advanced statistical monitoring methods to improve excursion detection and reliability risk assessment.

Collaborate with Device Engineering, Process Integration, Product Engineering, Yield Engineering, and Reliability Laboratory teams to support technology qualification and root‑cause investigations. Prepare reliability assessment documentation, engineering reports, and technical presentations, and present project findings and recommendations at the conclusion of the internship. Other

Responsibilities
