Develop and implement automated test sequences and instrument interfaces to improve testing throughput, repeatability, and data integrity.

Mechanical & Thermal Characterization

Lead thermo-mechanical modeling efforts to support test development and correlate laboratory results to real-world application conditions.

Evaluate interactions between TIMs and system interfaces, including heat spreaders, heat sinks, power modules, and IGBT/SiC-based packages .

Investigate anomalous or unexpected test results through root-cause analysis and implement corrective actions.

Analyze large and complex datasets to extract key performance metrics and establish statistical confidence in results.

Prepare high-quality technical documentation, including standard operating procedures (SOPs), engineering reports, and test specifications .

Partner with materials scientists, design engineers, and product managers to support material formulation and product development decisions.

Support customer validation testing and application-specific performance evaluations.

Transistor experience a plus.

Train laboratory technicians and global test teams on new test methods, equipment, and best practices .

Experience with phase-transition heat transfer technologies like heat pipes and vapor chambers is a plus.

Required Qualifications
