Your efforts will be vital in creating, validating, and approving new thermal technologies that correspond with the future of IC chip roadmaps.

What you'll be doing:

Introduce, develop, validate, and qualify new ATE/SLT thermal technologies in accordance with future IC chip roadmaps.

Review and approve the development of passive and active thermal control and corresponding change kits for ATE/SLT IC testing for product bring-up and production.

Provide ATE/SLT test fixture/HW solutions from building, manufacturing order, schedule monitoring, verification, and improvement.

Collect and analyze engineering data, making decisions and recommendations for improvement.

Provide global cross-functional support and drive projects with internal and external collaborators.

Apply strong hardware troubleshooting and root-cause analysis skills to provide preventive actions.

Debug and support surrounding hardware, including sockets and PCBs.

Require on-duty lab support, with occasional weekend support.

What we need to see:

Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience. Degrees in EE and ME are preferred.

Over 7 years of experience in IC testing engineering and ATE/SLT hardware engineering.

Solid experience in active thermal regulation within ATE/SLT, knowledge of PID control, evaporators, test procedures, and data parsing.

Comprehension of thermal simulation reports and mechanical drawings.

Knowledge of IC testing, ATE/SLT interface hardware, maintenance, troubleshooting, and repairs.

Demonstrated problem-solving abilities along with the capacity to deliver solutions and avoid repetition.

Willingness to conduct hands-on work beyond thermal hardware, such as socket pin repair and electrical wiring.

Capability to lift 30-pound thermal plungers and/or load boards.

Understanding of electrostatic discharge (ESD) prevention and control.

Strong collaborator with excellent communication abilities and experience working across various functional areas.

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

Demonstrated history of working directly with ATE/SLT thermal hardware from engineering setups to high-volume production.

Diligent approach to align with all specifications and minimize risks.

Dedication to engineering excellence through building, hands-on troubleshooting, and preventive action.
