  • Bench & Test Competency: Demonstrated proficiency in using standard bench test equipment (oscilloscopes, SMUs, power supplies, multimeters) to power up devices and characterize electrical fault symptoms.
  • Schematic & Layout Literacy: Proven ability to read and interpret electrical circuit schematics, netlists, and physical layouts (e.g., Cadence Virtuoso, GDS viewers) to trace electrical paths to physical silicon coordinates.
  • Analytical Techniques & Instrumentation: Direct hands-on experience across traditional failure analysis workflows: Package & Non-Destructive: Curve tracing, X-ray, and Scanning Acoustic Microscopy (SAM). Image-Based Fault Isolation: Photon Emission Microscopy (PEM/EMMI), OBIRCh, and thermal emission. Deprocessing Techniques: Wet chemistry/decap, mechanical polishing/lapping, and plasma etching.

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
