- Prepare test release reports and support project leaders in Change Review meetings
- Evaluate and explore new tester platforms in alignment with global Back-End Engineering teams
- Support new tester evaluation, including GR&R, test correlation, data analysis, and program optimization
- Develop test programs for tester platform conversion and migration activities
- Drive test escape prevention and improve screening strategies for both new and existing products
- Support yield improvement and breakthrough initiatives through data-driven analysis
What You Will Need
- Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical & Electronics Engineering, Physics, or related field
- Experience in semiconductor test development, NPI, or high-volume manufacturing environment
- Strong understanding of ATE (Automated Test Equipment) and test methodologies
- Knowledge of wafer sort and/or final test processes
- Experience in data analysis and yield improvement
- Familiarity with failure analysis processes and root cause investigation
- Programming knowledge (e.g., C/C++, Python, or tester-specific languages) is an advantage
