  Serve as primary technical liaison for integration of SoCs into customers’ Automated Test Equipment (ATE) to achieve optimized performance for PPA (Power, Performance, Area). Resolved stalled negotiations by leveraging technical data from bench performance and silicon validation to develop an engineering solution to meet product specs, which helped secure an additional $10M+ in semiconductor IP design wins. Led the resolution of customer technical issues by facilitating collaboration with cross-functional teams (design, sales operations, and quality), utilizing Cadence for transistor-level debug and simulation, Python scripting for test development, and JMP for data visualization cutting average root cause analysis from 8+ months to under 5 weeks. Created a company-wide CRM platform connecting Zendesk and JIRA, and automated workflows to track SLA metrics resulting in 70% YoY open ticket volume decrease and 30% reduction in total resolution time. Performed bench testing and validation of circuits using electrical test equipment and lab instrumentation such as oscilloscopes, multimeters, and logic analyzers fully automating 50+ specs saving 100 hours of work hours. Redesigned the customer return process (RMA) for electrical failures, streamlining the process from initial test screen to advanced imaging (photo-emission, IR imaging, FIB) which addressed 50% of previously unsolvable root causes.
