Test Engineer

Are you a proven Test Engineer seeking the next challenge on exciting new technology -- with a world class organization? Looking to do more than the next iteration of the same old product line? Then you need to look at this exciting opportunity PrideStaff is sourcing candidates for.

Exciting break through technology firm needs to hire a Test Engineer with 5 years of experience ideally -- experience in Optical/RF products are critical to this role. Seeking a self-motivated contributor, working with multiple disciplines to develop and deliver the foundational testing solutions for volume manufacturing.

You will be the key point of contact on the test development activities leading to acheiving a manufacturable solution -- and then getting that transferred to production. Once in production, on-going support will be as required. We like to think about this role as enabling the magic of our solutions to come to life!

Responsibilities:

1. Develop DC, RF, and other Optical test systems, providing operational procedures required to transition these stations from low volume to high volume work centers
2. Assists in developing technical roadmaps for new product test development, identifying risk areas associated with different roadmap options, summarizing advantages/ disadvantages.
3. Ensure test station capability and qualification plans are executed and reported as modifications/upgrades are implemented.
4. Defines test project goals, risks, costs/resources, schedule, and potential solutions that may be found.
5. Summarizes test project results, including impacts to product yield, quality, throughput, and cost.
6. Cross-functionally team with Designers, Engineering and Manufacturing teams to support new product introduction.
7. Create, conduct, & analyze Design of Experiments (DOE) for development and production activities.
8. Streamline data gathering, storage and access to minimize effort required to generate required reports.
9. Sustain and improve processes for electrical test processes associated with the product base.
10. Conduct audits, benchmarking & drive best practice methodologies to proactively prevent quality excursions as the technology ramps.
11. Supervisory responsibility for Engineers or Technicians may be required.

Required Experience:

1. Minimum of 5 years of experience in microelectronic / microsystem / optical design or manufacturing
2. SolidWorks, AutoCAD, or other engineering design, modeling or simulation software is desirable.
3. Demonstrated hands-on experience with test development projects and volume manufacturing, based on a thorough understanding of the equipment and materials that are used in the semiconductor and photonics industries.
4. Opto-electronic industry experience desired; preferably direct packaging/assembly/test experience.
5. Experience with PAM4 testing is highly desired
6. Candidates must have a strong understanding of statistics, process control and FMEA methodologies.
7. Must have experience with writing of test specifications, reports and production documentation.

Preferred Education:

1. BS in Electrical Engineering or the Physical Sciences from accredited school.
