Staff, System Product Engineering - Milpitas, United States
Originally posted 28 August 2026 by the employer.
This role focuses on system-level test solution development and product qualification for advanced NAND technologies.
About the role
This role involves system-level test solution development and product qualification for advanced NAND technologies. You will drive cross-functional collaboration, define test strategies, and ensure high-quality, cost-effective product delivery.
What you'll do
- Develop and execute product-level test solutions meeting cost and quality targets.
- Design methodologies for design-for-test and design-for-debug to enhance coverage.
- Oversee product test solution development from NPI through mass production across multiple geographies.
- Investigate qualification and yield issues during NPI, identify root causes, and implement corrective actions.
- Build and support scalable test software infrastructure to enable automation and AI assisted flows.
- Develop methodologies to deliver ATE test programs, validation and debug activities.
What you'll need
- Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer/Electrical Engineering or a related field with 6+ years of experience in memory, or system-level product or test engineering.
- Extensive knowledge of Product Engineering and Product Development.
- Strong understanding of PCIe, System Architecture, ASIC, and NAND flash operation at device level.
- Understanding of manufacturing processes, product lifecycle, and qualification processes for semiconductors.
- Experience with DFT techniques, Data Analysis tools, and scripting languages (Python, C, C++).
- Hands-on experience in system and memory testing, including failure analysis using oscilloscopes and protocol analyzers.
Nice to have
- Experience with developing or debugging DRAM, PCIe, HBM devices.
- Experience with generative and agentic AI tools.
Skills: product engineering, test solution, NPI, yield issues, DFT techniques
