OR

PhD in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Engineering, or related field.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Master’s Degree in Electrical, Electronics, Computer Science or related fields.

• Understands basics of circuit design (e.g., digital, analog, RF), hardware design (schematic capture and circuit simulation) or related fields

• 2 years of experience in product development, test validation and high-volume production activities related to System on Chip (SOC) - Compute, Data Center, Mobile, Automotive, IoT areas.

• VLSI technologies – Digital Design, CPU architecture and organization and Semiconductor process.

• Domain knowledge in one or more of these areas is a plus: CPU, Logic Test (ATPG), Memory, (SRAM, DRAM interfaces), High Speed Serdes, Sensor validation and its corresponding test methodologies.

• Experience handling measurement test equipment (oscilloscope, signal generator, spectrum analyzer, time interval analyzer, logic analyzer, network analyzer, ATE, Rohde & Schwarz).

• Has expertise with scripting with Python and code development using Java/C++ for Test code development.

• Understands Design for test (DFT) techniques and structural tests such as Scan/ATPG, JTAG and memory BIST is a plus.

• Hands on experience with data analysis software (JMP, National Instruments, Exensio, etc.) is a plus.

• Revision control (GIT preferred)

• Experience with Automated Test Equipment: Advantest or Teradyne is a plus.

Principal Duties and Responsibilities:

• Applies Hardware knowledge and experience to plan, optimize, verify, and test electronic systems, bring-up yield, circuits, mechanical systems, Digital/Analog/RF/optical systems, equipment and packaging, test systems, FPGA, and/or DSP systems.

• Integrates features and functionality into hardware designs in line with proposals or roadmaps.

• Conducts simulations and analyses of designs as well as implements designs with the best power, performance, and area.

• Collaborates with teams (e.g., design, verification, validation, software and systems engineering, architecture development teams, etc.) to implement new requirements and incorporate the latest test solutions in the production program to improve the yield, test time, and quality.

• Evaluates, characterizes, and develops the manufacturing solutions for leading edge products in processes and bring-up product to meet customer expectations and schedules.

• Evaluates reliability of materials, properties, and techniques and brings innovation, automation, and optimization to maximize productivity.

• Assists in the assessment of complex design features to identify potential flaws, compatibility issues, and/or compliance issues.

• Writes detailed technical documentation for Hardware projects.

Level of Responsibility:

• Works independently with minimal supervision.

• Decision-making may affect work beyond immediate work group.

• Requires verbal and written communication skills to convey information. May require basic negotiation, influence, tact, etc.
