Penang, Malaysia Intel Full time
Job Details:Job Description: 

The Test Architect Engineer is responsible for defining and integrating advanced test architectures and methodologies to support end-to-end post-silicon engineering activities. This role ensures robust, scalable, and reusable test solutions that enable efficient validation, characterization, and high-volume manufacturing readiness for complex analog and RF components.

Key Responsibilities :

Test Architecture & Strategy

  • Own the test program architecture: modular test flow design, instrument resource planning, and re‑use strategy across product families.
  • Translate product requirements and datasheet specs into testable requirements and acceptance criteria (accuracy, linearity, noise, drift, timing).
  • Define test coverage for parametric, functional, reliability and DFT/BIST hooks for analog blocks (ADC/DAC, LDOs, PLLs, RF).

Development & Implementation

  • Develop analog measurement routines with calibration, de-embedding, and guardbanding.
  • Build test fixtures and loadboard requirements in collaboration with HW teams; specify analog signal integrity, probe/handler constraints, socket/thermal solutions
  • Create golden device workflows, correlation scripts, and reference calibration procedures.

Characterization, Correlation & Quality

  • Define silicon bring-up and characterization plans (corners, voltage/temperature, stress); perform DOE/Hypothesis-driven analysis to isolate systemic issues.
  • Drive lab-to-ATE correlation (bench ⇄ tester), methodically quantify measurement uncertainty (bias, repeatability, reproducibility).

Yield, Cost & Efficiency

  • Reduce test time and cost via multi-site enablement, efficient resource scheduling, instrument sharing, concurrency, and algorithmic optimizations.
  • Partner with manufacturing to improve OEE, execution goal rate, and first-pass yield; define test escape prevention methodologies.
  • Define test solutions to be productize in HVM to meet best-in-class PHI.
Qualifications:
  • BS/MS in Electrical Engineering (PhD a plus) with 1-2 years in analog/mixed-signal test development for semiconductors.
  • Hands-on with ATE platforms: Advantest V93000 (SmarTest); strong understanding of instrumentation (SMU, AWG, digitizers, RF).
  • Proficient in C/C++/C#/Python/TCL for test program development; familiarity with CI/CD, version control (Git), and build systems.
  • Deep knowledge of analog measurement principles: calibration, de embedding, error budgeting, linearity, noise, stability, timing/jitter.
  • Strong data analysis skills (SPC, DOE, regression, outlier detection) and problem-solving using FMEA/Hypothesis testing.
  • Experience with DFT/BIST hooks for analog blocks, DFM/DPF considerations, and handler/prober/fixture constraints.
