Be part of a centralized Product Integrity Team. This is an opportunity to influence the future of Meta’s infrastructure as we build FA framework from the grounds up that is needed to scale our current services and support long term goal of meeting Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). Candidate gets to work on state of the projects including custom ASICs, Robotics and able to spruce FA relationship with worldwide supply and manufacturing base. Candidate will be applying knowledge of system hardware, electrical, and materials analysis to perform failure analysis across different issues and provide a turnkey solution to arrive on corrective actions.

Responsibilities

Responsible for all aspects of identifying and characterizing failures on Data Center HW that leads to successful identification of RootCause of the failure
Experience using FA equipment such as Optical/Digital Microscopes, Oscilloscopes, X-ray, SEM needed to successfully complete FA projects
Work closely with HW Reliability to Root Cause reliability failures
Recreate and identify failures observed in engineering, production, and field as needed for efficient fault isolation
Debugging thermal related PCB and electrical module failures
Develop Corrective actions for various failures observed based on Physics Of Failure methodology and validate the same
Taking additional steps to ensure prevention of similar issues from repeating on new NPI programs
Quantify FA in terms of improvements in yield, reliability, serviceability, manufacturability, testability, capacity, and cost when needed
Validate and verify supplier and vendor FA
Work with cross functional teams from all disciplines to determine and or discuss Root Cause
SOP creation for vendors and suppliers to repeat similar FA analysis if and when needed
Lab organization and detailed documentation leading to effective FA reports

Minimum Qualifications

Bachelors in Electrical or Mechanical engineering or Materials Science with 6+ years of failure analysis experience
Proven proficiency with the use of eFA equipment including Oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, frequency generators, source meters, and multimeters
Hands-on experience with SEM, DB-FIB, mechanical polishing, dicing, EDS, mechanical probing, EBIC/EBAC, OBIRCH, LADA, TIVA, etc
Systematic FA approach application and experience to methodically break down a system or process into subparts to isolate failures and troubleshoot to a component level

Preferred Qualifications

Masters or PhD in Electrical Engineer or Materials Science with direct Data Center HW FA experience
Experience analyzing datacenter failures (rack level hardware and/or datacenter infrastructure hardware)
Fault localization skills for PCIE gen 5/6 and DDR gen 5/6
Fault localization skills for custom Si/ASICs

$144,000/year to $204,000/year + bonus + equity + benefits
