Introduction to the job:

We have an exciting opportunity for a Component and Life-cycle Engineer to join our Hardware Controls and Electrical Engineering team to support DUV Light source products used in today's advanced semiconductor photolithography applications. The position is focused on electrical and electronic assembly and component life-cycle & obsolescence.

Role and responsibilities:

In addition the position requires an engineer with a solid theoretical and practical background in electrical engineering, who can comprehend form, fit, function replacement of alternative components to yield equivalent electrical design performance. This position will be a key contributor in tracking and managing Cymer's assembly and component life-cycle & obsolescence risk in our DUV Lightsource Product Technology.

• Develops qualification and test plans for design verification testing.
• Support design engineers in early identification of component life-cycle risks for new and legacy products.
• Support design engineers with the identification, selection, and qualification of replacement parts to address NRND/EOL/obsolete parts. Leads initial technical assessments with regards to Cymer's ability to resolve obsolescence issues by either components selection or if redesign work is required to overcome obsolescence.
• Sourcing electronic components for existing and new products, packages and electronic sub-assemblies.
• Use of Bill of Material (BOM) life-cycle / obsolescence analysis tools. Execute "where used" analysis to identify Cymer's products impacted by obsolescence of materials listed in the Cymer BOM's.
• Incorporate Silicon Expert and AVCOM obsolescence data with EOL notices from manufacturers and suppliers into a common database, and collaborate with outside service provider(s) for lifecycle analysis of Cymer BOM's.
• Create reports to track long term component life-cycle and obsolescence trends and overall risk based roadmaps to help set priorities for engineering and supply chain teams.
• Researching, developing, designing or selecting components for product improvements.
• Providing electrical engineering support for CLS DUV products, electrical design support for emerging R&D projects.
• Understanding/interpreting existing electrical and general engineering documentation.
• Navigating through document/product management software (SILICON EXPERT, AVCOM and AGILE) to access required procedures and documents.
• Work with distributors to screen electronic components for counterfeit risk.
• Provide technical support with regards to long-term storage strategies for last-time-buy electronic components.
• Provide technical inputs to guide last time buys and buffer buys on EOL components with supply chain.
• Updating product documentation to reflect design changes, and author Change Order (CO) requests to incorporate replacement components into released product designs.
• Execute Purchase Parts Requests as necessary.
• Other responsibilities may be added as business conditions arise.

Education and experience

• Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent experience.
• Minimum of seven (7 ) years of relevant work related experience.
• Experience with Schematics and PCB Layout design using OrCAD, and PADS (Mentor Graphics).
• Experience in new product and sustaining product development processes.
• Familiarity and experience with sourcing issues for electronic and mechanical components.
• Some Experience with Bill of Materials (BOM) obsolescence analysis tools is preferred.
• Understanding of surface mount (SMT) manufacturing equipment, processes and electronic component packages.
• Fluency in electrical and electronic documentation standards.
• Desirable to have printed Circuit Board (PCB) manufacturing experience.
• Ability to troubleshoot electronics issues using scientific principles.
• General understanding of engineering concepts, principles, and theory with technical experience demonstrating the application of those concepts while ensuring safety and regulatory compliance.
• Project leadership skills.
• Experience with schematic capture tools (OrCAD preferred).
• Experience directing PCB layout (component placement, routing, design rules).
• Hands on experience with board bring up and hardware troubleshooting.
• Experience with electronics test equipment - logic analyzers, oscilloscopes, communication bus analyzers, etc.
• Experience creating specification and theory of operation documents.
