Failure Analysis EngineerNew$83K–$112K
The opportunity
Sr.
What you'll do
Lead system- and component-level failure analysis for customer field returns,: new product introductions, and factory yield excursions; identify patterns across multiple failure events to surface systemic issues
Performs laboratory hands-on electrical and physical failure analysis for: fault isolation on electronic products (EVSE, AC/DC converters, DC/DC converters, PCBA, and cable harness); interprets test data and documents findings in formal failure analysis reports
Defines and executes test plans for functional electrical testing, circuit: analysis, fault isolation, probing, and failure duplication; communicates root cause conclusions to engineering and cross-functional stakeholders
Collaborates with engineering and operations teams to identify the root cause: for issues related to field, manufacturing, supplier quality, and product design
Drives corrective and preventive action (CAPA) closure; maintains KPIs and: databases; engages directly with suppliers or contract manufacturers on quality escapes as needed
Drives ambiguous problems to resolution independently, translating incomplete: or conflicting data into clear findings and actionable next steps.
What they're looking for
- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Materials Science, Mechatronics,: or a related technical field with 0–2 years of experience (new graduates welcome). Relevant coursework, capstone projects, and internships count toward experience.
- Ability to read and interpret electrical schematics and component data sheets
- Familiarity with electrical systems and components (PCBA, MOSFETs, IGBTs,: Capacitors, Relays, Cable Harness, etc.) including their failure modes/mechanisms
- Familiarity with or exposure to electrical test equipment such as Digital: Multi-meter (DMM), Oscilloscopes, Power Supplies, Electronic Loads, etc.
- Familiarity with physical failure analysis techniques such as optical microscopy and 2D / 3D X-ray
- Experience applying problem solving tools including Root Cause Analysis
- Ability to work independently as a self-starter; comfortable driving: investigations with limited guidance and adapting approach as new data emerges
- Interest in electronics industry such as automotive, consumer electronics,: solar, electric vehicle, AI data centre, or battery
