- Develop robust and innovative test solutions to achieve yield, test time, and product cost goals
- Qualify products for mass production and ensure shipped products meet specifications and exceed quality goals
- Debug and analyze field returns to drive continuous improvement
- Develop scripts and tools for pattern generation, data parsing, yield analysis, and production support
- Support production facilities for early production and product ramps across global manufacturing sites
- Evaluate and develop high-efficiency test methodologies for new IPs while optimizing existing test flows
- Lead device characterization, system-to-tester correlation, and production site transfer activities
- Analyze test and yield data to identify root causes and implement corrective actions
You will work cross-functionally with Product Engineering, Design Engineering, Quality Engineering, Operations, and external OSAT partners. This role requires strong technical leadership, data-driven problem-solving, excellent communication skills, and the ability to drive alignment across internal and external stakeholders.
