Test Engineers I

Responsibilities

• Interpreting, defining, documenting, and implementing methods to perform accurate and efficient characterization and QML screening of microcircuits (digital, analog, and mixed signal technologies)
• Writing and debugging test programs for microcircuits to perform detailed wafer probe, device characterization and/or production QML screening
• Maintaining and improving methods for the test and measurement of microcircuits
• Reviewing test results and characterization data for consistency, accuracy, and coherency; identifying and troubleshooting setup or measurement errors
• Interacting with microcircuit end-users and customer program managers to learn and understand test specifications, results, and issues
• Collaborating with design engineers to create and perform diagnostic testing of microcircuits as needed
• Collaborating with other test engineers to provide technical guidance and consulting to design engineers as appropriate

Qualifications

• HS diploma with 5 years experience testing microcircuits OR Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering
• U.S. Citizenship or Perm Residency required due to government contracts.
• Experience with or knowledge of practical electrical tools (ex: multimeter, oscilloscope) and some electrical related skills (ex: soldering, basic circuit troubleshooting)
• Desire to learn both theoretical and practical aspects of metrology as related to electronic measurements (i.e. test fixture design, measurement accuracy, test guard-bands, etc)
• Experience/knowledge with Unix/Linux workstation and PC (Windows) environments; demonstrated ability in relevant programming languages (i.e. C, C++, LabView, etc)
• Critical thinking skills, with hyper focused attention to detail and the ability to follow complex processes
• Demonstrated ability to reprioritize tasks to meet shifting deadlines
• Demonstrated ability to interpret semiconductor related test documentation (i.e. military device specifications and standards documentation, commercial data sheets, application notes, etc) in order to complete characterization and screening tasks
• Working knowledge of ATE systems preferred but not required
