finite element analysis, thermal analysis) to predict and optimize the structural integrity and thermal performance of electrical and
optical packages under various conditions. • Prototyping and Testing: Develop prototypes of system chassis and electrical/optical packages, conduct
testing (e.g., thermal cycling, vibration testing) to validate designs, and
iterate based on test results. • Collaboration: Work closely with electrical engineers,
semiconductor designers, and manufacturing teams to integrate electrical and optical packages into
overall product designs and ensure compatibility. • Documentation: Prepare documentation including design
specifications, test procedures, and reports to communicate design concepts and
results. • Quality Assurance: Ensure compliance with industry standards
and regulations related to system chassis and electrical/optical packaging and implement quality
assurance processes.
