ATE Test Engineer

This is an exciting opportunity to join a team of experts in the field of Automated Test Equipment (ATE). As an ATE Test Engineer, you will play a critical role in defining manufacturing test flows and test methodologies for ASIC/SoC.

• We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced ATE Test Engineer to join our team. In this role, you will be responsible for defining manufacturing test flows and test methodologies for ASIC/SoC to meet customer and quality requirements.
• You will work closely with cross-functional teams to finalize manufacturing test requirements for each test phase, including pass/fail criteria for given products.
• Additionally, you will drive new product migration from R&D to High Volume Manufacturing Phase, support technical issues, and coordinate with cross-functional teams.

1. Define Manufacturing Test Flows & Test Methodologies for ASIC/SoC to meet customer & quality requirements.
2. Expertise in one of the ATE platforms like Teradyne ETS800 / ETS88 / ETS364 / Advantest V93K, T2K is mandatory. Understanding of statistical analysis of test data will be an added advantage.
3. Work in close collaboration with cross-functional R&D teams to finalize the manufacturing test requirements for each of the test phases including the pass/fail criteria for a given product.
4. Drive the new product migration from R&D to High Volume Manufacturing Phase, support technical issues & co-ordination with cross functional teams.
5. Monitor product yield, test time and DPPM. Provide technical solutions for yield improvement, TTR and DPPM reduction; and come up with detail plans and drive for implementation of the same with R&D and factory personnel.
6. Help team members in line with the changing dynamics of the product deliverables.
7. Effectively represent Product Engineering function in various technical and functional forums.
8. Work with teams in different time zones, in case required.
9. Define product DFT and test requirements Pre-PG including a) DfT-max Requirements for a new product b) translate PRD / MRDs into PTS / SCMs / PRPs for ATE test-plan definition c) design ATE HW for lowest cost solution (max multi-site, lowest pin-mux) for Si bring-up and validation.
10. Post-Si bring-up and validation of all functional and test features. This includes extensive debug that will require good knowledge of IC design and semiconductor physics, with ability to clearly isolate and root-cause issues to design margins and/or sensitivies to wafer-fab process and parametric parameters.
11. Execute design-of-experiments with process window corner lot to establish spec compliance of each product across full wafer-fab process window.
12. Execute qualification cycles for Si and package to automotive, industrial, and commercial standards (as per the primary product market).
13. During these various stages of Post-Silicon validation, you will interact with various cross-functional teams such as Design, DfT, Design Validation, Program Management, QRE/CQE, and Bench Characterization and Apps development teams Qualifications Skill Sets – Must haves.
14. Work experience or university project experience in Electronics and/or Semiconductors.
15. Hands on experience with Lab Equipment (Testers, Oscilloscopes, Signal Generators, Logic Analyzers).
16. Knowledge of IC Test Methodologies, System Testing and Communication Protocols such as USB, UART, PCIe, I2C, I2S, DDR etc.
17. Good understanding of software programs written in C, C++, C# and able to step through the code if required.
18. Able to work comfortably with Windows and Linux Operating systems.
19. Ability to troubleshoot and analyze complex problems with minimal data points.
20. Ability to multi-task and meet deadlines.
21. Excellent communication (written and verbal) and interpersonal skills.
22. The ideal individual must have proven ability to achieve results in a fast moving, dynamic environment. Self-motivated and self-directed, however, must have demonstrated ability to work well with people. A proven desire to work as a team member, both on the same team and outside of the team.
23. Excellent communication (written and verbal) and interpersonal skills.
