Senior Product Development Engineer

ADVANCED MICRO DEVICES (SINGAPORE) PTE LTD; Singapore; On-site; SGD 70,000 - 110,000; Full time

Job summary

ADVANCED MICRO DEVICES (SINGAPORE) PTE LTD is seeking a Senior Test Engineer to own test solutions for next-generation AMD products. You will be the technical expert for ATE fuse solutions, interfacing with Product, Design, Security Experts, Platform Engineering, and Reliability teams to shape test plans, silicon bring-up, and yield optimization.

The role requires extensive experience in semiconductor test, DFT/ATE methodologies, and firmware bring-up across pre- and post-silicon phases.

Qualifications

• Experience in the Semiconductor industry with depth in test engineering and security module development.
• Experience in Fuse and Security module development, including pattern development and debug in Fuse.
• Understanding of Hardware Security Module (HSM) architecture and its role in key management, secure key storage, and cryptographic operations within silicon and system-level security flows.
• Firmware bring-up and debug experience, including low-level hardware/software co-debug across boot sequences and hardware initialization flows.
• Strong foundation in DFT and ATE test methodologies, with end-to-end experience spanning test program development, validation, and debug across both pre- and post-silicon phases.
• Proven ATE test class and method development experience, with preference for Advantest 93K; test development spanning more than one full product cycle is preferred.
• Strong programming skills in Python, Java, Perl, or C++.
• Experience with Mentor, Synopsys, or Cadence EDA tools, or System Level Testing is a plus.

Responsibilities

• New product introduction phase: develop characterization and test coverage strategies/plans during pre-silicon phase.
• Establish pattern requirements and drive Design Verification deliveries during pre-silicon phase.
• Execute the defined characterization and test plans on new silicon.
• Design Wafer and Package Level Fuse modules for Test Programs.
• Silicon Bring up and Post Silicon ownership including validation of Test Programs.
• Perform new device characterization, circuit sensitivity analysis, interpret findings, and guide investigations to root cause.
• Interface with global teams on root cause resolution for device failures.
• Foster and develop new ideas in device test/debug/DFT/DFM and deliverables.
