Verification, Validation & Test
Originally posted 14 September 2026 by the employer — open 2 days.
About the role
This role involves developing, debugging, and sustaining production test solutions for isolated gate drivers within the High Voltage Power (HVP) business unit.
What you'll do
- Develop, debug, and optimize test programs on mixed-signal Automated Test Equipment (ATE) platforms (e.g., Teradyne ETS-364/ETS-88, LTX-Credence, or similar mixed-signal testers).
- Create test methodologies for wafer-level sorting (probe cards, Scribe Line Monitors) and final packaged testing (DIB/Load boards, high-speed sockets).
- Implement DFT methodologies including Short Voltage Elevation (SHOVE) stress testing, Gate Stress, and IDDQ/quiescent current screening.
- Design, verify, and document Device Interface Boards (DIB), load boards, and handler interface hardware, ensuring high voltage safety protocols.
- Execute characterization plans over voltage and temperature corners (-40°C to 125°C/150°C) and analyze test data using statistical process control (SPC) tools, DPAT, and SBL.
- Participate in DFT reviews with Analog/Digital Design Leads to define test modes, trim algorithms, and verify register/EEPROM configurations.
What you'll need
- Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronic Engineering, or a related discipline.
- 2–6 years of experience in semiconductor Product and/or Test Engineering with high-voltage, analog mixed-signal, or power management ICs.
- Proficiency in writing and debugging ATE test code (C/C++ or specialized tester languages).
- Solid understanding of analog circuit fundamentals (operational amplifiers, LDOs, DACs, ADCs, gate driver stages).
- Familiarity with high-voltage test constraints, high CMTI environments, and galvanic isolation parameters.
- Experience with PCB design software (Altium, PCB Cadence or similar) for load board schematic/layout review.
- Knowledge of statistical analysis tools (such as Galaxy or similar) for yield and data log analysis.
