About the job

This is a unique opportunity to be part of a team that drives testing of battery monitors and protectors power management devices going into automotive and industrial markets with significant growth potential. The ideal candidate would have a background that includes probe and final test development of complex mixed signal circuits.

Test engineering is a critical role in an IC development process while developing a mass-production solution. Test engineers spend a good amount of time in the lab and when they're not there, they are designing test hardware using software tools like cadence and building test programs on an ATE simulator, or troubleshooting – the programs or the device.

Responsibilities include:

• Work with design team to understand design specifications
• Generate test plan, create test and char program, design ATE hardware interface boards
• Debug characterizing silicon on ATE, correlate results with bench data
• Analyze silicon results, supporting failure analysis tasks
• Perform statistical analysis of yield fallout, debug and fix yield issues; optimize test time
• Work with production team to release products to volume production
• Test strategy definition and implementation for new battery products
• ATE (Automatic Test Equipment) test hardware and software
• Silicon qualification& characterization including qual hardware development
• Comprehensive device debugging, design validation and failure analysis
• Drive for robust and cost effective test solutions while being accountable for product quality
