Sr Test Development Engineer - �, SG, Singapore
Verification, Validation & Test
Originally posted 3 September 2026 by the employer.
About the role
This role involves the development of hardware and software for RF projects, specifically Broad Band, Base Station, and RF Beam Forming.
What you'll do
- Develop, debug, optimize, and deploy test programs on RF ATE platforms such as DMDX, LTX-AC, or equivalent.
- Collaborate with RF design teams to define Design-for-Test (DFT) requirements and improve testability.
- Apply expertise in RF and microwave measurements including S-parameters, gain, output power, insertion/return loss, noise figure, harmonics, linearity, phase noise, EVM, and calibration.
- Operate, troubleshoot, and correlate RF test instrumentation, including Vector Network Analyzers (VNA), Spectrum Analyzers, Signal Generators, Power Meters, and Noise Figure Analyzers.
- Lead cross-functional and global project teams for test development, managing project execution and ensuring manufacturing readiness.
- Develop and maintain automated test solutions using Python, C#, LabVIEW, or MATLAB to enhance test coverage and production efficiency.
What you'll need
- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related discipline.
- 5+ years of hands-on experience in RF product development and test engineering.
- Experience with Cohu LTX-ac tester platform / Cohu LTX-Pax and DMDX tester platforms.
- Advanced understanding of RF test items such as S-parameters, gain, output power, insertion/return loss, noise figure, harmonics, linearity, phrase noise, EVM.
- Knowledge to control SA (Spectrum Analyzer), VNA (Vector Network Analyzer), PM (Power Meter).
- Strong technical ability and knowledge of test instrumentation devices such as signal generators, oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzer, switching, frequency counters, and power meters.
