New Product Development Product/Test Engineer
This position offers a great opportunity to work on industry leading semiconductor devices, targeted for broad applications in Automotive and Industrial markets. In this role, you’ll be a member of New Product Development team, tasked with supporting product lines and business P&Ls on new product development activities, including defining Analog/Digital DfT and test strategies, developing low-cost test solutions for complex Analog, Mixed Signal, and Digital roadmap products on ATE platforms, and productizing ICs in-line with business goals and growth projections. Knowledge and experience with software development using of C++ / C / Python / JAVA is necessary. Candidate should know ATE platform architecture and programming language to develop low level ATE code for Analog / Mix Signal blocks. End goal is to design and productize deep Analog and Mix Signal test automated solutions, enabling organization benchmarks in quality, efficient code, and test-cost goals.
Primary responsibilities will include:
- Own and drive new product development across various businesses and product lines within the BU.
- Drive best-in-class DfTs (Analog / Digital BiST solutions) for benchmark Cost-of-Test.
- Own post-silicon Si bring-up, validation, characterization, and qualification activities and execute to fastest time-to-market.
- Own entitlement goals for product execution, overall product cost (yields, test-times, multi-sites), and product quality.
- Define, own, and impact continuous upkeep and maintenance of test program generation utilities and standard test method libraries.
- Must be able to update / modify existing code with innovation and improvisation focused on efficiency and test-cost reduction.
- Act as an interface between ATE vendor, BU PE and Design team to define test automation requirements and checklists.
- Good understanding on Automated Test Equipment (ATE) system architecture (ETS800, T2K, IFlex etc.) and able to work with vendor to develop low level automation code.
Good IC and test knowledge and background, across digital, analog, RF, and mixed-signal, along with knowledge of ATE platforms, DfT strategies and test methods, and test instrumentation requirements for various Analog, Mixed-Signal, and Digital tests is critical. Having additional experience and knowledge of high-speed interfaces (PCIe, Serdes, LPDDR, CSI/DSI, etc.) is considered a plus. Knowledge of high-voltage (>1kV) test requirements is a must. Must have prior hands-on experience working DfT, ATE Test Equipment for IC testing, and good understanding of ATE system architectures.
