What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Staff Test Engineer position at Empower Semiconductor?
Empower Semiconductor has an opportunity for an experienced ATE test engineer who is proficient with the Advantest V93K platform. This is an exciting opportunity to be a part of a cutting-edge semiconductor team creating a new paradigm in power delivery for GPU’s / XPU’s in AI data centers. Traditional power solutions require many discrete components with big footprints and complex designs. Empower Semiconductor’s patented IVR technology integrates dozens of components into a single IC shrinking footprints by 10x and delivering power with unprecedented simplicity, speed & accuracy.
In this job you will:
- Design, develop, release to production and support ATE test solutions for complex ICs.
- Following test application development procedures and demonstrate compliance through technical documentation generation.
- Troubleshoot software and hardware using root cause analysis and provide technical solutions for test-related problems, provide yield improvement solutions, provide test-time reduction solutions, resolve bench-tester correlation issues and improve the accuracy of the test through refined test methodologies. Debug and characterize silicon on ATE and correlate results with bench data.
- Work in a team environment and support multiple initiatives and independently determine and develop their approach to each assignment.
- Collaborate with design, product engineering, and manufacturing to understand root cause of yield issues and test related production operation issues.
- Support business goals for Quality, Cost, and Delivery and collaborate with functional support groups.
- Support manufacturing operations for test solution issues.
- Manage projects, involving delegation and review of work; at times acting as a team leader.
- Provide guidance, coaching and training for a growing test engineering department
What you will bring to the table:
- BS / MS in the field of Electrical Engineering
- 10 years of experience with test development for semiconductors; minimum 3 years using Advantest V93k
- Experience in the power IC field is a plus but not a requirement.
- Hands-on experience with laboratory equipment and best practices for IC bring-up, test, and characterization
