We offer many full-time employment paths for recent graduates, which provide accelerated training in a fast-paced work environment, cross-functional working opportunities, and talent mobility. New college graduates are provided with mentorship, networking, and leadership opportunities, which give our new team members life-long connections and skills. 

Summary of Role: 

Join the New Product Development team as an early-career Test Engineer responsible for developing and productizing cost-effective automated test solutions for complex digital, analog, and mixed-signal integrated circuits used in automotive and industrial applications. You will contribute across the full 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. 

Essential Responsibilities include: 

• Support pre-silicon planning by translating product requirements and datasheets into technical specifications, specification-compliance matrices, design-for-test requirements, and ATE test plans. 

• Assist with the design of cost-effective ATE hardware and resource allocation that 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 across 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, and support test-time, yield, burn-in, and manufacturing-flow improvements. 

Other Responsibilities: 

• Perform all activities in a safe and responsible manner and support all Environmental, Health, Safety & Security requirements and programs. 

Required Qualifications: 

• Education – Graduating with a Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field from an accredited degree program. 

• Must have at least an overall 3.0 GPA and proven good academic standing. 

• Language Fluency - English (Written & 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. 

Preferred Qualifications: 

• Prior related internship or co-op experience. 

• Demonstrated prior leadership experience in the workplace, school projects, competitions, etc. 

• Strong interest in leveraging AI tools and emerging technologies to enhance productivity, streamline workflows, and support effective decision-making. 

• Project management skills, i.e. the ability to innovate and execute solutions that matter; the ability to navigate ambiguity. 

• Strong written and verbal communication skills 

• Strong planning & 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.
