Position Overview

We are seeking a Senior / Lead ATE Test Engineer to own and drive CP / FT test solution development, NPI bring-up, and high volume manufacturing support for analog and mixed-signal IC products.
This role emphasizes end-to-end technical ownership, covering test architecture, ATE software and hardware solutions, yield and quality performance, and cost optimization across the product lifecycle.

Key Responsibilities

Test Architecture & Program Ownership

• Define and own CP / FT test strategies based on product specifications and DFT requirements, balancing test coverage, quality, test time, and cost
• Lead development, debugging, and optimization of ATE test programs on mainstream platforms:
  • Teradyne ETS
  • Teradyne UltraFLEX
  • SPEA
  • NI STS–based test systems
• Establish robust test methodologies for precision analog, ADC/DAC, DSP, and power management ICs

ATE Hardware & Supplier Engagement

• Lead or review ATE test hardware solutions, including:
  • Load Board
  • Probe Card
• Drive technical reviews with suppliers to ensure design robustness, correlation, and manufacturability
• Manage key supplier interfaces from engineering validation through mass production

NPI, Production & Quality Ownership

• Lead NPI test bring-up and ensure smooth transition into volume manufacturing
• Support characterization activities and reliability tests (e.g., HTOL) and provide PI risk–related test coverage
• Monitor production data and proactively identify:
  • Yield degradation
  • Test escapes
  • Test stability or correlation issues
• Drive root-cause analysis and corrective actions with cross-functional teams

Cost & Efficiency Optimization

• Continuously optimize test time, hardware cost, and test limits while maintaining product quality
• Lead or contribute to cost-down initiatives in high volume production

Cross-Functional Leadership

• Collaborate closely with Design, Product Engineering, Packaging, and Quality teams
• Provide early test feasibility, coverage, and risk assessments during product definition phases
• Mentor junior engineers and promote best practices in test development and release

Documentation & Process

• Develop and maintain clear, structured test documentation
• Contribute to continuous improvement of test standards, flows, and reuse strategies across products or platforms

Qualifications

Education

• Master’s degree or above in Microelectronics, Electrical Engineering, Integrated Circuits, Automation, or related disciplines

Experience

• 3+ years of ATE test development experience in the semiconductor industry
• Proven track record supporting both NPI and high-volume manufacturing
• Demonstrated ownership in solving yield, quality, or test-coverage–related issues

Technical Skills

• Hands-on experience with at least one major ATE platform:
  • Teradyne ETS
  • Teradyne UltraFLEX
  • NI STS (PXI-based ATE systems)
• Strong understanding of:
  • Precision analog measurement
  • ADC/DAC testing
  • Power management IC test principles
• Proficiency in test development languages such as C / C++ / VB
• Ability to design structured, scalable, and maintainable test software

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with analog or mixed-signal IC testing
• Strong background in ATE test hardware design, especially load boards
• Familiarity with Cadence or other EDA tools
• Basic knowledge of semiconductor manufacturing processes and Failure Analysis (FA)
• Experience acting as a technical lead or mentoring engineers
• Chinese speaking ability will be a plus but not required.
