Product Test Engineer | Radar

Texas Instruments is seeking a Product Test Engineer for our team. This position offers a great opportunity to work on industry leading Radar mmWave sensor devices targeted for broad applications in the automotive and industrial this role you will be a contributing member of a cross functional team working on new and innovative DFT (Design-for-Test) techniques to drive low cost test solutions for Complex / Analog IPs for high volume production testing on roadmap ATE test platforms (Advantest Teradyne). You will work on cutting edge CMOS process technology nodes operating at mmWave frequencies (60GHz 81GHz) targeting a wide breadth of product offerings from high performance and high cost to low power and low cost.

Responsibilities may include:

• New product development contributor to new roadmap projects within the RADAR BU product line

• Collaborate and work in a team environment with Design Applications Systems Program Management Quality Planning Business and Marketing in all aspects of cost entitlement in order to achieve production release (RTM) on time and at entitlement goals

• Compliance to Galileo phases required for project execution (Assess Plan Create Verify & Ramp)

• Work closely with the Analog Design Firmware and Systems teams to integrate digital/analog test measurements on Automated Test Equipment

• Extensive knowledge of statistics and tools to analyze large amounts of characterization data and determine and set production test limits and predict yield data (e.g. Spotfire Mbayse etc.)

• Perform evaluation debug characterization and qualification of new roadmap products to ensure they meet the requirement specifications and manufacturing requirements for entitlement RTM

• Work with failure analysis (FA) to determine root cause of any reliability and qualification failures

• Driving and participating in DFT reviews at various design phases defining requirements for test to enable DFTs for max testability at entitlement test cost

• Actively represent the PE team in all cross functional reviews with Design DFT Systems PM project weekly reviews and PLM status updates on roadmap discussions and product planning

• In addition PEs may be responsible for sustaining support meaning they work with design ATD (process technology) manufacturing test quality reliability and marketing teams to further optimize the manufacturing flow of a given device targeting to reduce cost or otherwise improve the overall long-term development and profit profile of the device post-release.

Minimum requirements:

• Bachelors degree in Electrical Engineering ECE Computer Engineeringor related field of study
• 1 years of relevant product engineering experience (Test DFT ATE etc.)
• Solid understanding of analog and digital circuits their operation and analysis

Preferred qualifications:

• Production test program and hardware development experience
• ATE experience on V93K or equivalent (J750 VLCT LTX iFlex etc.)
• Knowledge and expertise across core disciplines of PE role;DfT ATE HW ATE SW Characterization Quality & Reliability Failure Analysis & RTM
• Knowledge of digital and analog test methods high speed interfaces and RF analog BiST (ORBiT)
• Extensive knowledge of statistics and tools to analyze large amounts of production test data and determine and set accurate tracer projects to improve yield and/or reduce test time(mBayse SpotFire TestWare ParmDB etc.)
• Proficiency in programming/scripting in C Python PERL
• Revision control tools experience : Subversion Git
• Ability to work in a team setup comprising of other functional groups
• Strong time management skills that enable on-time project delivery
• Demonstrated ability to build strong influential relationships
• Ability to work effectively in a fast-paced and rapidly changing environment
• Ability to take the initiative and drive for results
• Strong problem solving verbal and written communications skills
• Ability to multitask between projects and be able to maintain project schedules
• Experience with integrated circuit and device failure analysis
• Programming skills for automation of automated test equipment
