Job Description
We are seeking a Senior Staff NPI Test Engineer to join our team as a key technical contributor responsible for owning end-to-end test development for semiconductor products from design-for-test (DFT) planning through production release. This individual will lead NPI efforts across both high-speed signal integrity and capacitive sensing product lines, with an immediate focus on a SIP program using the Advantest V93000 (SmarTest 7/8) platform.
Key Responsibilities:
- Develop/debug ATE test programs on Advantest V93000 (93K)
- Support test development on Teradyne uFlex for analog/sensing products
- Review test hardware designs (load boards, probe interfaces)
- Perform hands-on lab work: bring-up, silicon debug, and production release
- Partner with design teams on DFT and testability requirements
- Support characterization, correlation, and test readiness reviews
- Transfer solutions to OSAT/manufacturing sites and drive yield improvements
- Mentor junior engineers and build reusable test IP/documentation\
