TL;DR · Product Development Engineer

The Product Development Engineer joins the APU Product Engineering organization in a senior technical leadership role focused on delivering production-ready test and product solutions from silicon bring-up through high-volume manufacturing. This individual leads product characterization, test strategy, design-for-test planning, performance optimization, and ATE test development while collaborating with cross-functional teams to ensure quality and cost efficiency. The role involves developing and troubleshooting ATE hardware, software, and test programs while mentoring engineers and driving scalable automation. Required expertise includes semiconductor product engineering, silicon validation, device physics, and high-speed interfaces like PCIe, USB, DDR, JTAG, I2C/I3C, GPIO, and PLLs. The candidate must be proficient in Python, scripting, Git, Linux, and Windows. This position addresses critical semiconductor challenges including yield improvement, power management, and product characterization within the APU product lifecycle.

What you'll do

  • Lead product test strategy, design-for-test (DFT) planning, and ATE solution development for APU products.
  • Drive silicon bring-up, characterization, product definition, and performance optimization activities.
  • Optimize product quality, yield, test coverage, and manufacturing costs to maximize business value.
  • Develop, validate, and troubleshoot ATE hardware, software, and test programs across manufacturing environments.
  • Partner with cross-functional teams to define production test and debug solutions.
  • Mentor engineers and drive scalable automation, infrastructure, and best practices across product lines.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or Computer Engineering.
  • Experience in semiconductor product engineering, test development, silicon validation, manufacturing, or device physics.
  • Expertise with ATE platforms, preferably Advantest V93K, and production test methodologies.
  • Knowledge of high-speed interfaces including PCIe, USB, DDR, JTAG, I2C/I3C, GPIO, and PLLs.
  • Experience with silicon performance optimization, power management, yield improvement, and product characterization.
  • Proficiency in Python, scripting, automation tools, Git, Linux/Unix, and Windows.
  • Demonstrated technical leadership, data analysis, and AI/ML-enabled continuous improvement experience.
