NPI Test Engineer

Job Title

NPI Test Engineer

Role Summary

The NPI Test Engineer defines and implements manufacturing test strategy and production test architecture to enable scalable, high-quality production. This role spans hardware, software, manufacturing, quality, operations, and supplier engagement to develop screening, diagnostics, and automated test solutions for global manufacturing.

Location: Singapore. Report suspicious activity to recruiting@psiquantum.com.

Experience Level

Mid-level. The role requests 5+ years of test engineering experience.

Responsibilities

The engineer will own manufacturing test capability from strategy through deployment and continuous improvement. Key responsibilities include:

• Define manufacturing test strategy: screening philosophies, test coverage, release criteria, and critical failure modes.
• Develop scalable production test solutions: test fixtures, automated test equipment (ATE), production test software, diagnostics, and calibration methods.
• Lead deployment across contract manufacturers and suppliers: station qualification, readiness assessments, operator training, and production support.
• Improve test effectiveness: reduce false failures and cycle time, increase coverage, and lower cost-of-test.
• Develop diagnostics for fault isolation and support root-cause investigations.
• Generate manufacturing intelligence from test data: yield trends, failure Pareto analyses, correlation studies, and operational reports.
• Support production ramp (EVT/DVT/PVT and launch): monitor performance, troubleshoot, and drive corrective actions.
• Partner with Product, Process, Quality, Software, and equipment suppliers; influence cross-functional outcomes without direct authority.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills and experience for success in this role.

• 5+ years of Test Engineering experience in product manufacturing environments.
• Proven experience with automated manufacturing test systems and production-level ATE.
• Experience supporting manufacturing operations and working with contract manufacturers/suppliers.
• Strong troubleshooting, diagnostics, and problem-solving skills.
• Experience developing production test software and diagnostics; familiarity with test fixtures and calibration methods.
• Nice-to-have: semiconductor, photonics, or factory automation experience; experience with manufacturing analytics or reliability testing.
• Nice-to-have: programming or scripting experience such as Python or LabVIEW (or equivalent).

Education Requirements

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Physics, or a related discipline is required by the posting. A Master’s degree is listed as preferred. No specific certifications were specified; equivalent practical experience was not mentioned.
