Role Summary

GlobalFoundries Singapore is seeking highly motivated Engineering WSDegree Interns to support Test Engineering within a high-volume semiconductor manufacturing environment. This internship provides progressive exposure to semiconductor testing fundamentals data-driven quality and yield monitoring and continuous improvement culminating in a Final Year Project (FYP) aligned with real manufacturing and product test challenges.

Key Responsibilities

Block 1: Foundational Learning & Exploration

• Learn semiconductor manufacturing fundamentals and the end-to-end product flow from wafer fabrication through electrical testing
• Understand the role of test engineering in ensuring product quality reliability and customer requirements
• Learn cleanroom and lab safety standards protocols and factory operations basics
• Gain exposure to test flow concepts test limits/specifications and basic test metrics
• Become familiar with MES data systems and engineering workflows used in manufacturing and test operations
• Job shadow Test Engineers to understand daily operational support monitoring and problem-solving activities

Block 2: Test Data Analysis & Problem Solving

• Support monitoring of test performance using key indicators (e.g. yield bin trends parametric shifts and fallout signatures)
• Perform data analysis to identify trends anomalies and potential test or product issues
• Apply statistical methods (e.g. SPC) to detect excursions and support process stability
• Assist with basic troubleshooting of test-related issues (e.g. correlation checks limit reviews retest investigations)
• Support documentation of findings and communication of results to cross-functional stakeholders

Block 3 & Final Year Project (FYP): EngineerinTraining Development

• Define FYP scope objectives and deliverables with an assigned industrial mentor
• Execute an FYP focused on test improvement test data analytics yield enhancement or stability optimization
• Conduct structured studies (and where applicable DOE / A-B comparisons) to validate improvement ideas
• Develop recommendations to improve test robustness reduce test escapes improve yield or optimize test efficiency
• Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives supporting cost quality productivity or cycle time
• Complete the FYP under guidance of an assigned industrial mentor
