  • Develop and debug test features, programs, and scripts using C++, Python, or Java.
  • Work closely with chip design, systems, product, and manufacturing teams to align test plans with performance and functional requirements.
  • Set up and maintain test hardware and software infrastructure for both digital and mixed-signal validation.
  • Conduct risk assessments and drive test coverage strategies across multiple chip subsystems.
  • Perform data analysis to identify trends, anomalies, and failure modes using tools like JMP, Spotfire, YieldHUB, or Silicon Dash.
  • Interface with external vendors and equipment suppliers to evaluate test solutions and ensure compatibility with our unique sensor architecture.
  • Continuously improve test methodologies, coverage, and yield through data-driven insights.

What You Bring

  • Education: degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering (or related).
  • 5+ years in chip/IC test engineering, ideally within the semiconductor or automotive domain.
  • Strong experience with ATE systems, test development, and debugging on platforms like Teradyne or Advantest.
  • Proficiency in C++, Python, or Java for scripting and automation.
  • Solid understanding of both analog and digital test methods. RF/mixed-signal experience is a plus.
  • Familiarity with lab equipment such as oscilloscopes, signal generators, and spectrum analyzers.
  • Excellent problem-solving and communication skills; ability to thrive in a collaborative, cross-functional setting.

Bonus Points

  • Experience testing mmWave or RFIC-based systems.
  • Background in testing high-speed interfaces or mixed-signal environments.
  • Previous work in a fast-paced startup or early-stage product environment.
  • Knowledge of sensor technologies and their role in ADAS/Autonomous Vehicles.
