About the role
We are seeking a Senior Test Engineer to lead the development and execution of test solutions for precision analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits used in memory, AI, high-performance computing, and automated test equipment (ATE) applications. This role owns the production test strategy from first silicon through high-volume manufacturing and works closely with Design, Product Engineering, Applications, Quality, Operations, and external manufacturing partners to deliver robust, cost-effective production solutions.
Responsibilities
- Lead activities from first silicon through production release for precision analog and mixed-signal IC products.
- Develop complete production test solutions for wafer sort and final test using Teradyne UltraFlex IGXL and associated handlers/probers.
- Correlate bench measurements with ATE results and establish production test limits using statistical analysis and characterization data.
- Develop and optimize production test programs for precision DACs, current source/sink products, PMICs, analog interface ICs.
- Design, debug, and validate load boards, probe cards, sockets, and production hardware in collaboration with external vendors.
- Drive multisite optimization, parallel testing, throughput improvement, and overall manufacturing cost reduction.
- Perform silicon debug and root-cause analysis for design, process, package, and test related issues.
- Work closely with IC Design during schematic reviews, silicon bring-up, and Design-for-Test (DFT) planning.
- Support qualification, reliability, HTOL, characterization, and customer qualification activities.
- Develop production release documentation including correlation reports, GR&R studies, guard-banding analysis, and manufacturing specifications.
- Transfer products into OSAT and high-volume manufacturing while providing engineering support during production ramp.
- Develop automation tools using Python, JMP, and data analytics to improve engineering productivity and manufacturing quality.
