Key job responsibilities
As a Test Engineer you will contribute to new product introduction by supporting first silicon bringup production rampup and yield optimization. You will collaborate with OSAT (Outsourced Semiconductor Assembly & Test) vendors to collaborate in developing ATE test methodologies board design and debug strategies to ensure product performance manufacturability and cost efficiency. This role requires handson debugging on ATE testers first silicon characterization and close collaboration with crossfunctional teams to ensure smooth production readiness.

Key job responsibilities:
First Silicon Debug & Characterization Execute first silicon bringup debug test failures perform rigorous characterization and correlate results with SLT.
ATE Debug & Correlation Develop and debug ATE test programs bring up code on testers and correlate results with SLT.
Test Development & Optimization Optimize test methodologies program flows and patterns to improve test coverage reduce test time and optimize costs.
Yield Analysis & Improvement Analyze engineering sample data characterize NPI product performance debug yieldlimiting issues.
Production Readiness & OSAT Own wafersort and final test program deployment drive early production stages and support yield and test cost improvements.
Knowledge Transfer & Sustaining Support Work closely with OSAT sustaining engineers to implement improvements and maintain test stability.
Board Design & Debug Develop and debug test hardware including load boards and probe cards and ensure proper qualification for mass production.

Bachelors or Masters degree in Electrical Engineering Electronic Engineering or a related field.
Minimum 5years of experience in semiconductor test engineering including ATE test development yield analysis.
Handson experience in ATE test coding first silicon debug PVT characterization and test time optimization.
Proficiency in ATE test methodologies including wafersort and final test program development.
Experience in board design and debug including load boards probe cards and interface hardware.
Strong skills in statistical ATE data analysis failure analysis and root cause identification.
Effective communication skills to collaborate across design product and manufacturing teams.
Willingness to travel for onsite support at OSAT locations during silicon bringup and mass production.

Strong ATE debugging skills with experience on platforms such as J750 or UltraFlex (IGXL platform preferred).
