Your Role

As a Test Engineer on our Research & Development team, you will blend creativity with technical expertise to shape future technology, drive groundbreaking projects, and bring new ideas to life.

Key Responsibilities

Test Development

• Design, develop, and debug robust test programs for complex mixed-signal SoCs using C++ within the Advantest V93000 (SmarTest) environment.

Hardware Integration

• Lead the bring-up, validation, and optimisation of loadboards and probe cards.

Cross-Functional Liaison

• Partner with Design Engineers to define design-for-test (DFT) requirements and correlate bench characterization with ATE data.
• Partner with Product Engineers to drive yield improvement programs, perform statistical data analysis, and implement test time reduction (TTR) strategies.
• Provide technical data and shmoo analysis to support customer inquiries and define product performance capabilities.

Independent Project Management

• Take full ownership of the test life cycle from initial silicon bring-up and characterization through to high-volume production release.

Continuous Improvement

• Automate data analysis workflows and diagnostic scripts using Python to improve debug efficiency and hardware troubleshooting.
