New Product Development Test Engineer (2027 New College Graduate)
About The Position
Join GlobalFoundries’ New Product Development team as an early-career Test Engineer developing and productizing cost-effective automated test solutions for complex digital, analog, and mixed-signal integrated circuits used in automotive and industrial applications. The role contributes across the product lifecycle, from pre-silicon test strategy through silicon bring-up, qualification, manufacturing release, yield improvement, and cost reduction on Advantest and Teradyne ATE platforms. The position supports product testing and manufacturing readiness in collaboration with cross-functional engineering, quality, customer, and factory teams. The engineer will own assigned products from silicon bring-up through manufacturing release, drive product-entitlement targets and ramp metrics, and support improvements to test time, yield, burn-in, and manufacturing flow. Work is performed under the guidance of experienced engineers where specified.
Requirements
- Graduating with a Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field from an accredited degree program.
- At least a 3.0 overall GPA and proven good academic standing.
- English fluency, written and verbal.
- Experience in semiconductor test, design-for-test (DFT), or integrated-circuit design.
- Proficiency in one or more programming languages, including C, C++, Python, or Perl.
Nice To Haves
- Prior related internship or co-op experience.
- Demonstrated leadership experience in the workplace, school projects, competitions, or similar settings.
- Strong interest in leveraging AI tools and emerging technologies to enhance productivity, streamline workflows, and support effective decision-making.
- Project management skills, including the ability to innovate and execute solutions that matter and navigate ambiguity.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills.
- Strong planning and organizational skills.
- Experience with Advantest or Teradyne ATE platforms.
- Knowledge of ATE architecture and experience developing low-level test code.
- Experience testing digital, analog, or mixed-signal integrated circuits.
- Experience with silicon characterization, qualification, or manufacturing ramp.
- Familiarity with applicable automotive, industrial, or commercial semiconductor qualification standards.
Responsibilities
- Translate product requirements and datasheets into technical specifications, specification-compliance matrices, design-for-test requirements, and ATE test plans.
- Assist in designing cost-effective ATE hardware and resource allocation to improve multisite efficiency and pin multiplexing for silicon bring-up, validation, and production release.
- Develop, bring up, validate, and debug automated test programs for digital, analog, and mixed-signal integrated circuits on Advantest and Teradyne ATE platforms.
- Analyze test and characterization data to investigate design margins, wafer-fabrication process variation, parametric performance, yield, and test-time opportunities.
- Support process-window experiments, silicon and package qualification activities, and product specification compliance for automotive, industrial, or commercial requirements.
- Collaborate with Design, DFT, Design Validation, Program Management, Quality and Reliability Engineering, Customer Quality Engineering, Bench Characterization, Applications, Fab, Assembly, and factory Test teams.
- Contribute to ATE test hardware, socket design, board schematics, layout, diagnostic code, and test automation specifications under the guidance of experienced engineers.
- Document gaps, lessons learned, and best practices, and contribute reusable methods to the Standard Test Methods Library (STML) across ATE platforms.
- Own assigned products from silicon bring-up through manufacturing release; drive product-entitlement targets and critical ramp metrics; support test-time, yield, burn-in, and manufacturing-flow improvements.
- Perform activities safely and responsibly and support Environmental, Health, Safety & Security requirements and programs.
