Senior Modem ATE Test Engineer – SoC & SerDes Expert

Amazon; Redmond (WA); On-site; USD 159,000 - 215,000; Full time

Job summary

Amazon is seeking a Senior Modem ATE Test Engineer in Redmond, WA to lead end-to-end digital test development for high-volume modem and SoC devices on Advantest 93K and Teradyne UltraFLEX platforms.

You will own ATE test flows, develop scan/ATPG, MBIST, and memory repair, optimize SERDES tests, and collaborate with ASIC design, DFT, and manufacturing teams to enable cost-effective production and high yields.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering or equivalent.
• 7+ years of digital ATE test development and test engineering, preferably in high-volume manufacturing.
• Experience testing complex SoCs and modem/wireless devices in advanced nodes (7nm and below).
• Experience developing and debugging test programs on Advantest 93K and/or Teradyne UltraFLEX platforms.

Responsibilities

• Develop, debug, and release digital test programs for complex ASIC/SoC and modem devices.
• Build and debug scan/ATPG test content for complex ASIC/SoC and modem devices.
• Implement MBIST and memory repair flows.
• Characterize silicon performance and process variation through ring oscillator and process monitor tests.
• Test and debug I/O interfaces such as I3C, SPI, and GPIO.
• Optimize high-speed SERDES/HSIO test, including equalization, jitter/eye characterization, BER, and loopback.
• Convert test patterns from the DFT team into tester-suitable formats and validate them on hardware.
• Bring up and characterize new devices, define test conditions, and drive shmoo/characterization to establish production limits.
• Lead device correlation between wafer sort and final test, resolving offsets and measurement issues.
• Reduce test time and cost across digital and DC content while maintaining coverage and quality.
• Design and review FT and WT hardware, including load board, socket, and probe card designs for high-speed interfaces.
• Partner with ASIC design and DFT teams to meet design-for-test/manufacturability standards.
• Analyze production data using statistical methods to drive yield/quality improvements.
• Identify readiness gaps and drive optimization opportunities throughout the product lifecycle.
