Staff Test Engineer - Product Development

Job Title

Staff Test Engineer - Product Development

Role Summary

Own and drive CP/FT test solution development, NPI bring-up, and high-volume manufacturing support for analog and mixed-signal IC products. The role provides end-to-end technical ownership of test architecture, ATE software and hardware solutions, yield and quality performance, and cost optimization across the product lifecycle.

Experience Level

Senior-level; 3+ years of ATE test development experience in the semiconductor industry.

Responsibilities

Primary responsibilities include test program development, hardware verification, production support, and cross-functional leadership.

• Define and own CP/FT test strategies balancing coverage, quality, test time, and cost.
• Develop, debug, and optimize ATE test programs on Teradyne ETS, Teradyne UltraFLEX, SPEA, and NI STS platforms.
• Establish test methodologies for precision analog, ADC/DAC, DSP, and power-management ICs.
• Lead review and development of ATE hardware (load boards, probe cards) and manage supplier technical reviews.
• Lead NPI test bring-up and transition to volume manufacturing; support characterization and reliability tests.
• Monitor production data to detect yield degradation, test escapes, and correlation issues; drive root-cause analysis and corrective actions.
• Optimize test time, hardware cost, and test limits; participate in cost-down initiatives.
• Collaborate with Design, Product Engineering, Packaging, and Quality teams; mentor junior engineers and document test flows and standards.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills, experience, and expectations.

• 3+ years of hands-on ATE test development experience supporting NPI and high-volume manufacturing.
• Proven ownership in resolving yield, quality, or test-coverage issues.
• Hands-on experience with at least one major ATE platform: Teradyne ETS, Teradyne UltraFLEX, SPEA, or NI STS (PXI-based).
• Strong understanding of precision analog measurement, ADC/DAC testing, and power-management IC test principles.
• Proficiency in test development languages such as C, C++, or VB; ability to design structured, scalable test software.
• Experience with ATE test hardware design and supplier engagement (load boards, probe cards).
• Required travel: up to 10%.
• Preferred: experience acting as a technical lead, familiarity with Cadence or other EDA tools, basic semiconductor manufacturing and failure analysis knowledge, Chinese language skills (optional).

Education Requirements

Master's degree or above in Microelectronics, Electrical Engineering, Integrated Circuits, Automation, or related disciplines.
