About Anker Innovations
Anker Innovations is a global leader in smart charging and consumer electronics, home to Anker, eufy, Soundcore, and Nebula. Founded in 2011, we serve 100+ countries, 140M+ users, hold 1400+ patents, and 50% of our 4000+ employees are in R&D.
The Role
We're looking for a Senior Failure Analysis Engineer – Electronics to lead root-cause investigation of returned electronic/electrical products (RMA) across our global portfolio. You'll diagnose complex hardware failures at board, circuit, and component level — and translate findings into improvements in design, manufacturing, and component quality, while helping build our AI-enabled diagnostic capabilities.
What You'll Do
- Own RMA failure analysis from initial diagnosis through root-cause identification and closure
- Perform board-, circuit-, and component-level troubleshooting using functional testing, signal/waveform analysis, and electrical characterization
- Diagnose power architecture failures: Buck/Boost converters, LDOs, PMUs, SoCs, charging ICs
- Troubleshoot digital interfaces/protocols: I2C, SPI, I2S, PCIe, UART, CAN
- Use oscilloscopes, multimeters, electronic loads, logic analyzers, CAN tools, X-ray, and thermal imaging to identify electrical, soldering, EMC, ESD, and component failures
- Apply structured root-cause methods (8D, 5 Whys, FTA, Fishbone, DOE); recommend corrective and preventive actions
- Collaborate with R&D, Quality, Manufacturing, and Supplier Quality globally
- Produce standardized English failure analysis reports; build failure case libraries and diagnostic standards
- Support AI-enabled diagnostic tools by translating failure patterns into structured knowledge
