Test Development Engineer
About The Position
This position will provide technical and sustaining engineering support in the parametric and functional test. Program automated test equipment to determine if the wafer fabrication process is in compliance. Recommends and helps to implement equipment and test program modifications to improve production efficiencies, testing integrity and production yields for existing products. Develops and conducts statistical analysis such as design of experiments (DOE) and statistical process control (SPC) targeting area and possibly root cause of failure for yield loss and improving quality. Interacts with product and process engineering personnel to ensure that parametric test specs and results are accurate.
Requirements
- Knowledge of semiconductor device physics, fabrication processes, and characterization techniques.
- Proficient in programming using C language in Linux or Windows environment
- Experience using data handling tools: Excel, JMP, MATLAB, etc.
- Problem solving, technical writing, and communication skills.
- Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering, physics, or other microelectronics engineering related fields and 5+ years’ job experience in semiconductor tests is required.
