Staff Test Engineer

Job Overview: The Staff Test Engineer is responsible for defining, developing, validating, and deploying secure provisioning flows for semiconductor manufacturing on ATE. This role owns the manufacturing execution of security lifecycle transitions, eFuse/OTP programming, fuse readback and validation, secure debug control, device identity provisioning, and production guardrails across wafer sort, final test, SLT, and high-volume manufacturing. This role requires 8+ years of experience in semiconductor manufacturing and test, with strong hands-on experience in Advantest 93K, SmarTest 7 / SmarTest 8, security provisioning flows, fuse programming, provisioning blob handling, and cross-functional execution with Design, DV, Security Architecture, Firmware, Product Engineering, and Manufacturing teams.

Own test enablement for upcoming silicon projects, including ATE strategy, Advantest 93K hardware configuration, SmarTest 8 program structure, test flow development, debug visibility, datalogging, and manufacturing readiness. Drive first-silicon bring-up on ATE, including daily progress reporting, issue triage, silicon/ATE debug, characterization execution, correlation, and handoff from engineering bring-up to CP, FT, SLT, OSAT, and HVM release. Define and implement ATE characterization plans across voltage, frequency, temperature, process, functional content, HSIO margins, structural coverage, binning strategy, guardbands, and production limits.
