Staff Test Engineer

Renesas is seeking a Senior/Staff/Sr Staff Test Engineer to support new product test development for our System Attach PMIC (SAP) business unit.

Test development engineers are critical to Renesas' power management products.  They interface directly with the design team to define unique and novel test modes for our current and future generation products.  Test engineers also play a critical role in working with the applications team to shape the final device datasheet through characterization and DFT activities.   

As a test engineer, you are involved with the entire NPI (new production introduction) process that starts from feasibility, DFT, test H/W design, device bring up, ATE characterization, all the way to offshore production test program release. It is a Test engineer’s job to ensure that each device shipped meets Renesas’s high quality standards. At the same time, a test engineer also works constantly to identify areas to maximize efficiency, test yield and minimize test cost. 

Key Responsibilities

• Test development for power management IC: ATE platform selection, design for test (DFT) implementation, test plan development, ATE hardware design, and delivering robust & cost-effective test solutions
• Collaborating with other local and worldwide functional teams to align test strategies with overall business and quality objectives
• Ensuring test solutions meet coverage requirements and are robust in production
• Analyzing ATE test results using statistical analysis applications to help improve repeatability and stability
• Providing overall planning support for test development projects, including setting development timelines, budgets, expected test times and keeping projects on schedule 

• Bachelor’s degree or greater in Electrical/Computer engineering or Computer science.
• 3+ years of experience working with Automated Test Systems (ATE); ETS364 is preferred. 93k, Microflex and ETS800 a plus.
• 3+ years of strong experience in ATE test development for analog, digital and mixed signal on ETS364.
• Experience in programming such as C++, basic, Perl, python, etc.
• Experience in testing and collecting data on IC chips or circuits using standard tools such as oscilloscopes, multimeters, spectrum analyzers, etc.
• Experience with data analysis and GR&R methodology. JMP application knowledge is a plus.
• Proficient with ATE analog/digital instruments, PCB layout parasitic reduction, and strong debug/troubleshooting experience
• Hands-on experience in debugging analog products with serial bus interfaces
• Travel 0-10%
