Experience: 3-7 years of relevant semiconductor test engineering experience
Role Overview
We are seeking a Senior Test Engineer with hands-on experience in semiconductor ATE test development, characterization, debugging and production test. The role involves developing and optimizing test programs for wafer sort and final test, supporting new product introduction, improving yield and test efficiency, and resolving product/test issues.
Candidates should have practical experience with platforms such as Advantest V93K, Teradyne UltraFLEX or J750, with strong understanding of semiconductor devices and the complete production test flow.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop, debug, characterize and maintain ATE test programs for semiconductor devices.
- Support Wafer Sort / Circuit Probe (CP) and Final Test (FT) activities.
- Develop test methodologies and test flows for new semiconductor products.
- Perform test program correlation, characterization and validation before production release.
- Support New Product Introduction (NPI) from engineering development through production ramp.
- Analyze test data to identify yield loss, test escapes and device performance issues.
- Perform yield analysis, test limit optimization and guard-band analysis.
- Debug device, test program, test hardware and production test issues.
- Optimize test programs to improve test time, coverage, yield and manufacturing efficiency.
- Work with Product Engineering, Design, Validation, Quality and Manufacturing teams on product/test issues.
- Support qualification, production release, engineering changes and continuous improvement activities.
- Prepare and maintain test documentation, characterization reports and engineering analysis.
Required Qualifications
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Microelectronics, Semiconductor Engineering or a related discipline.
- 3-7 + years of relevant experience in Semiconductor Test Engineering / ATE Test Development.
- Hands-on experience with at least one major semiconductor ATE platform.
- Practical experience in Wafer Sort / CP and/or Final Test.
- Experience in semiconductor test program development, debugging and characterization.
- Strong understanding of semiconductor device testing and production test methodology.
- Experience with test data analysis, yield improvement and production support.
