Product Engineer (Discreet Semiconductors), $65-80K, North Dallas, TX

Upgrade your engineering career to a higher level at this well-respected global semiconductor company whose expanding product lines provide both stability and the opportunity to work with leading-edge technologies. Reporting to the Product Engineering Manager, you will serve as a liaison to Field Application Engineers, Customer Service Reps and Field Sales Reps, as well as working with semiconductor wafer fabs and packaging groups to develop new products. You will assist cross-functional teammates with defining product specs, following up on sample requests, coordinating new product development and releases, and technical data sheet specifications. Understanding of the marketplace, including competitive products, performing benchmark analysis and product characterization of new products, will be part of your role. Your recommendations for test equipment, mass production issues, yield improvement and other development activities will be valued. Your constant search for next-generation ideas and opportunities will require research and marketplace knowledge. You will monitor ROI, gross profit margins, costs, yield and market price information. Side note, many of the Product engineers have a focused test, process or yield analysis background – this is a lighter focus for the job. This is not the target core skill set. This role is closer to the creative side of product engineering and requires more front end design and interaction with pre-sales or marketing. We’re seeking someone that has experience at “envisioning” product ideas. In addition to a generous salary, the company provides an excellent benefits package and opportunities for career growth. If you meet the requirements listed, please send MS Word resume to resume [at] alynpatrick [dot] com for immediate consideration.

Requirements:

– Must have BSEE or equivalent, with 3+ years experience in a similar product engineering role.
– Expertise with discrete semiconductors (absolutely must have concentrated experience in this area), resistors, capacitors, inductors, diodes transistors, vacuum, TRIAC LEDs, bipolar, etc
– Excellent verbal, written, presentation and teamwork skills

– The ideal candidate will be an analytical problem-solver; proactive self-starter; efficient time manager; have a strong work ethic; possess the ability to balance multiple priorities in a fast-paced, high-growth technology environment
