  • 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.
