Silicon Test Engineer, Senior

The Product Development and Test Engineering group is responsible for Design validation, characterization, and production deployment of multiple leading-edge IPs for 5G products in the advanced FinFET semiconductor process technologies. In this role, you will be a member of a technical team working closely with IC Design, Software, Systems and Operations engineering to enable the high-volume manufacturability of the product.

Responsibilities for this position includes the operation of the ATE to validate and debug the new product functionality, test HW/SW development, characterize across corner conditions and releasing cost-effective production test solutions for mass manufacturing.

The individual selected for this position will need to be able to work in a fast-paced and dynamic environment and be passionate about delivering quality solutions. 

Preferred Qualifications 

• Master’s Degree in Electrical, Electronics, Mecatronica, Computer Science or related fields. 

• Experience with circuit design (e.g., digital, analog, RF), hardware engineering and hardware design (schematic capture and circuit simulation) or related fields.

• >1 year of experience in product development, test validation and high-volume production activities related to System on Chip (SOC) - Compute, Data Center, Mobile, Automotive, IoT areas. 

• VLSI technologies – Digital Design, CPU architecture and organization and Semiconductor process. 

• Domain knowledge in one or more of these areas is a plus: CPU, Logic Test (ATPG), Memory, (SRAM, DRAM interfaces), High Speed Serdes, Sensor validation and its corresponding test methodologies. 

• CMOS Analog, and Mixed-Signal circuits such as ADC, DAC, PLL, LDO, LNA, Mixers, Power Amplifiers, and their performance measurements. 

• Experience handling measurement test equipment (oscilloscope, signal generator, spectrum analyzer, time interval analyzer, logic analyzer, network analyzer, ATE, Rohde & Schwarz). 

• Experience with Python/C++/Java/Assembly/Embedded SW. 

• Design for test (DFT) techniques and structural tests such as Scan/ATPG, JTAG and memory BIST is a plus. 

• Hands on experience with data analysis software (JMP, National Instruments, Exensio, etc.) is a plus. 

• Experience with Automated Test Equipment: Advantest or Teradyne is a plus. 

• Familiarity with ARM, Arduino, Microcontroller architecture is a plus.

• and measurement instruments such as oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, RF tools, etc.

• 2+ years’ experience utilizing schematic capture and circuit simulation software. 

Physical Requirements 

• Frequently transports between offices, buildings, and campuses up to ½ mile. 

• Frequently transports and installs equipment up to 5 lbs. 

• Performs required tasks at various heights (e.g., standing or sitting). 

• Monitors and utilizes computers and test equipment for more than 6 hours a day. 

• Continuous communication which includes the comprehension of information with colleagues, customers, and vendors both in person and remotely.
