• Design and execute analytical plans to determine root cause of electrical/mechanical failures
• Use and interpret results from tools such as: X-ray, SEM/EDS, FA isolation techniques, and electrical characterization tools
• Analyze ATE datalogs, schematics, and test results to diagnose issues
• Lead or contribute to fault isolation and deprocessing workflows
• Review, validate, and approve lab data and technical reports
• Communicate findings to internal teams and external clients in clear, practical terms
• Identify process improvements to increase lab throughput and reduce repeat failures
