About this role
Role Objective
The ESD Engineer will be the site owner and technical authority for ESD control, EOS prevention, and EPA governance in a Greenfield OSAT environment.
This role is critical to:
- Design and deploy a robust ESD Control Program from scratch
- Ensure compliance to ANSI/ESD S20.20, IEC 61340, AECQ, and customerspecific ESD requirements
- Prevent latent and catastrophic ESD/EOS failures
- Build ESD discipline, infrastructure, and culture across Assembly and Test operations
Key Responsibilities
A. ESD Program Ownership (Greenfield Setup)
- Architect and deploy the sitewide ESD Control Program aligned to:
- ANSI/ESD S20.20
- IEC 61340 series
- Customerspecific ESD/EOS specifications
- Define and establish EPA (ESD Protected Area) design for:
- IC Assembly
- Test
- SMT and Box build
- Packing Logistics
- Ensure ESD requirements are embedded at:
- Facility layout stage
- Tool installation line qualification
B. Infrastructure System Design
- Specify, review, and approve:
- Flooring systems
- Wrist straps, footwear, and garments
- Workstation grounding and carts
- Ionization systems (overhead, benchtop, toolembedded)
- Define grounding architecture:
- Common point ground systems
- Equipment grounding verification
- Approve ESD packaging materials:
- Trays, tapes, reels, bags, boxes
C. Monitoring, Audits Compliance
- Establish ESD compliance monitoring plans including:
- Daily / weekly / monthly audits
- Continuous monitors and periodic verification
- Own ESD audit readiness for:
- Customer audits (Automotive / Aerospace)
- Certification audits
- Drive closure of ESD audit gaps with sustainable actions
D. ESD Risk Assessment Failure Analysis
- Lead ESD risk assessment during:
- New tool introduction
- NPI / Package changes
- Process modifications
- Support ESD/EOS failure analysis in collaboration with:
- Reliability
- FA Labs
- Customer quality teams
- Distinguish between:
- ESD vs EOS vs external damage
- Drive root cause elimination and systemic prevention
E. Training ESD Culture Building
- Define and roll out ESD training matrix for:
- Operators
- Engineers
- Technicians
- Contractors and visitors
- Conduct:
- Induction ESD training
- Refresher and advanced ESD sessions
- Build ESD ownership culture on the shop floor
F. Integration with Quality Systems
- Ensure ESD controls are fully linked with:
- PFMEA Control Plans
- SPC (ESDcritical parameters)
- Equipment qualification PM
- Support:
- IATF 16949
- ISO 9001
- AS9100 (where applicable)
- Participate in customer excursions related to:
- Electrical damage
- Latent failures
- Reliability fallout
G. Leadership Site Influence
- Act as ESD Subject Matter Expert (SME) for the site
- Mentor junior engineers and technicians
- Drive ESD best practices aligned with global semiconductor standards
- Influence facility design, procurement, and operations through ESD requirements
3. Key Skills Competencies
Technical Expertise
- Deep handson knowledge of:
- ANSI/ESD S20.20
- IEC 61340
- ESD/EOS physics in ICs
- Strong understanding of:
- CMOS sensitivity models (HBM, CDM, MM)
- Ionization principles measurements
- Grounding and resistance measurements
- Experience with ESD test equipment:
- Resistance meters
- Field meters
- Charged plate monitors
- Event detectors
Leadership Behavioral Competencies
- Strong systemlevel thinking
- High attention to discipline and compliance
- Ability to influence without authority
- Calm leadership during customer escalations
4. Education Experience
Education
- Bachelors or Masters degree in:
- Electronics Engineering
- Electrical Engineering
- Physics (Semiconductor background preferred)
Experience
- 815 years of relevant experience in:
- Semiconductor Assembly Test
- Wafer Fab / OSAT / Electronics manufacturing
- Prior experience in:
- Greenfield fabs or OSAT setup (strong advantage)
- Automotive or aerospace programs (preferred)
5. Certifications (Preferred)
- ANSI/ESD S20.20 Program Manager
- IEC 61340 internal auditor
- Six Sigma Green / Black Belt (added advantage)
