Job description

Job Details

Job Description:

• Drives and develops testability and manufacturability of integrated circuits from the component feasibility stage through production ramp.
• Contributes to design, development, and validation of testability circuits, test flows, and methodologies for new products through evaluation, development, and debug of complex test methods.
• Interfaces with process development, fab, factory, assembly, quality and reliability, and manufacturing groups to enable postsilicon HVM ramp.
• Evaluates new designs on automatic test equipment (ATE) and works with the design, DFx, and product development teams to debug functionality and performance issues to root cause. Performs ATE device characterization, utilizes that data to define datasheet specifications and performs yield analysis.
• Collaborates with designers to drive design for test/debug/manufacturing (DFT/DFD/DFM) features enabling efficient production testing of new products. Develops and debugs complex software programs to convert design validation vectors and drive complex test equipment.
• Creates and tests validation and production test hardware solutions. Tests, validates, modifies, and redesigns circuits to guarantee component margin to specification.
• Analyzes and evaluates component specification versus performance to ensure optimal match of component requirements with production equipment capability with specific emphasis on yield analysis and bin split capability.
• Ensures manufacturability over process and product design through thorough analysis of process and spec corners and works with design to resolve yield issues before manufacturing ramp. Drives test time reduction through analysis of fallout data versus test time for various IPs to balance and drive overall product cost optimizations.
• Analyzes early customer returns with emphasis on driving test hole closure activities.
• Creates and applies concepts for optimizing component production relative to both quality and cost constraints.
• Leads and drives manufacturing readiness from fab, assembly, and test factory to support engineering sample and customer sample generation (ES milestones), wafer start planning, product qual execution strategy and capacity analysis, and assembly and test site certification activities.
  
  

Qualifications

• Bachelor of science of Electrical and Electronic Engineering or Master of science of Electrical and Electronic Engineering and equivalent.
• At least with 15+ years relevant experience required in the following areas:
• Microprocessor test (ATE and/or system test and/or pre-silicon verification) experience
• 15+ years of applicable experience in pre-silicon and post-silicon test development.
• Proven track records on leading product development from definition, pathfinding, pre/post silicon validation and manufacturing ramp.
• Strong background and knowledge in hardware architecture, analog/logic/memory design and implementation.
• The ideal candidate will exhibit: Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a proven track record of successfully leading team in creating and implementing integrated, multidiscipline solutions with excellent results.
• Ability to work in unstructured environments and to initiate and drive new model path finding activity from ambiguity (concepts) to clarity (defined direction and development).
• Exceptional interpersonal communication, relationship management, effective listening and influencing skills that result in strong working partnerships across organization boundaries.
• Responsible in providing effective regular updates to management on product development progress.
• Knowledge of circuit design/Si process/test domains.
• SOC integrated circuit testing and high-volume manufacturing experience would be an added advantage.
• Works with fab, assembly, and test factory partners and planners to support production ramp.
• May also manage execution of new product introductions in the fab, fab process targeting, product/process optimizations, and participate in factory task forces to bring product perspective and respond to product issues.
• Optimizes product supply through data analysis of postsilicon binsplit, die level cherry pick (DLCP), and optimize sort/test content and yield downstream through data analysis.
