Sr. Staff Reliability Engineer at Qualcomm leads semiconductor reliability strategy for advanced CMOS technologies (FinFET, GAA, etc.), defining qualification requirements and executing technology certification across devices, packages, and systems. The role requires deep expertise in device and interconnect reliability physics—BTI, TDDB, HCI, electromigration, self-heating, wear-out mechanisms—and hands-on experience designing reliability test structures and interpreting complex failure data. Responsibilities include performing advanced reliability analysis, anticipating and mitigating risks across the product lifecycle, establishing scalable organizational best practices, and providing expert judgment on critical trade-offs. The engineer will mentor technical staff, drive cross-functional alignment with design, process, test, and product teams, and communicate reliability status and strategic recommendations to senior leadership.
