Key Responsibilities
- Drive the manufacturing test strategy for an AI accelerator chip featuring PCIe Gen6, LPDDR, advanced CMOS nodes, and advanced packaging (e.g., 2.5D/3D, chiplet).
- Lead and manage a team of chip test engineers responsible for test planning, test program development, pattern bring-up, silicon characterization, debug, and optimization.
- Manage subcontracted test development partners (OSATs, ATE vendors, external engineering services). Includes scoping, technical oversight, schedule tracking, and quality control of deliverables.
- Define and drive test software architecture, DFT usage, and test pattern development strategies for high-speed logic, SRAM, DRAM, and High Speed IO blocks.
- Work closely with design, DFT, product engineering, packaging, and validation teams to ensure robust test coverage, manufacturability, and yield ramp success.
- Oversee test development for high speed interfaces such as PCIe Gen6 and multi-GHz LPDDR.
- Guide development of structural and functional test content (scan, MBIST, JTAG, HSIO tests, system-level tests).
- Lead silicon bring-up and development on ATE: correlation, failure analysis, shmooing, corner testing, stress testing, and yield improvement activities.
- Define KPIs and metrics for subcontractor performance, test coverage, yield, time-to-test, and cost optimization.
- Drive continuous improvement in test methodologies, automation, data analytics, and debug infrastructure.
- Ensure robust test flows for advanced packaging (thermals, interposer/bridge connections, TSV integrity, die-to-die IO testing).
- Support qualification, reliability testing, and high-volume manufacturing transfer.
Required Qualifications
- 8+ years in semiconductor test engineering, including leadership or technical lead roles.
- Deep experience with ATE test development (e.g., Advantest 93K, Teradyne).
- Strong understanding of DFT (scan, ATPG, LBIST, MBIST), memory testing, and high-speed interface testing.
- Experience managing external test development partners or OSATs.
