As a System Level Product Development Engineer on the System Level Product Engineering team, you will tackle complex testing challenges and develop new methodologies for reliable chip testing at SLT. Your daily responsibilities include characterization, yield enhancement, and specification validation while collaborating with ASIC, DFT, ATE, silicon validation, fab process, software, and quality teams to resolve silicon issues. You will initiate process improvements through root cause analysis and optimize workflows across multi-functional groups. The role requires proficiency in Python for large scale data analysis, along with knowledge of PC architecture, PCIe buses, and DRAM/DDR. Experience with HBM or GDDR memory is also beneficial. This position focuses on the technical challenge of providing system level diagnosis, verification, and post-silicon validation for some of the industry's most complex semiconductor chips to ensure high-quality hardware performance.

What you'll do

  • Solve complex testing challenges and develop new methodologies for reliable chip testing at SLT.
  • Perform characterization, yield enhancement, and specification validation for semiconductor chips.
  • Coordinate with cross-functional engineering teams to identify and resolve silicon issues.
  • Conduct root cause analysis to initiate and drive process improvements and preventative actions.
  • Improve workflows, products, functions, and methodologies through multi-functional collaboration.
  • Perform large-scale data analysis using Python to support product engineering goals.

What we're looking for

  • BSEE or MSEE degree (or equivalent experience).
  • 5+ years of relevant product engineering work experience or similar hardware systems background.
  • Strong technical, interpersonal, written, and oral communication skills.
  • Proven problem-solving ability and experience.
  • Proficiency in Python for large scale data analysis.
  • Experience with HBM/GDDR Memory is a plus.
  • Experience with PC architecture, PCIe busses, and DRAM/DDR is a plus.
