Senior Advanced Packaging Engineer
Albany, NY
About Us
Menlo Micro has reinvented one of the most fundamental building blocks of electronic systems – the electronic switch. Menlo Micro’s technology creates a new switch category that eliminates compromises and tradeoffs by combining the benefits of electromechanical and solid-state switches into the best of both worlds with its “Ideal Switch.”
Are you interested in playing a critical, impactful role and work with top electronic systems talent at an exciting startup backed by industry leaders? Do you want to help create truly disruptive and unique products that will change markets? If you answered yes to both, this may be your opportunity to have a significant impact at a cutting-edge startup with industry-leading technology that will drive electronic systems innovation across a diverse range of industries.
Role Summary and Purpose
You will drive the thermal-mechanical design, new package and assembly process development and production package optimization for Menlo Micro’s diverse power and RF products that use our innovative MEMS switch technology. In this role you will be the lead engineer ensuring technical attainment of all design and qualification requirements, including characterization and reliability testing, and participate in the timely release-to-production.
You will directly impact critical roadmaps and support new technology developments. Projects will encompass design, characterization, packaging, thermal / mechanical considerations, assembly, mechanical test strategy, data analysis, reliability testing, root cause problem solving, and material dispositioning.
Essential Responsibilities
This is a hands-on role, and key responsibilities include :
- Device substrate, package, and module design & Design for Manufacturability (DFM) of MEMS-based RF and power switch products
- Effective material, process and component design and selection based on thorough thermal, mechanical and stress analysis
