Staff/Senior Staff Hardware Test Automation Engineer

Join CreatorIQ as a Staff/Senior Staff Hardware Test Automation Engineer. In this role, you will write code that drives instruments, testers, wafer probers, and lab automation to bring a chip to life and prove it works. You will work across various platforms, including an internal test software framework, industry-standard ATE test method and test flow development, wafer prober integration, instrument control, and data pipelines. You will also have the opportunity to learn about the hardware you're automating and design and build test software that automates device bring-up, characterization, and production test sequences.

• Écrire le code qui pilote les instruments, les testeurs, les probers de wafers et l'automatisation du laboratoire pour amener une puce à la vie et prouver qu'elle fonctionne.
• Travailler en étroite collaboration avec les ingénieurs en matériel et en caractérisation pour comprendre leurs besoins et traduire la physique des dispositifs et les exigences de test en un logiciel de test fonctionnel et répétable.
• Développer et maintenir des méthodes de test, des flux de test et du code de contrôle des instruments en fonction du niveau et du projet, tout en écrivant et en examinant le code.

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering or related field
• History of mentoring engineers and driving cross-functional technical decisions with hardware, characterization, and manufacturing teams
• 8+ years of experience in hardware test software, ATE systems, or test architecture, ideally in semiconductor or photonics
• Track record of owning test software architecture for a product line, including decisions on how the framework scales across projects and teams
• Comfortable working at the hardware/software boundary — reading and reasoning about embedded software (C/C++), controls, or firmware well enough to co-develop directly with the engineers who own it
• Can articulate, end to end, how they scoped, planned, implemented, and validated an automation project
• Deep hands-on experience with ATE test method/test flow development and/or embedded test frameworks for hardware test automation, plus fluency with instrumentation automation (SCPI/VISA or equivalent) at a level where you can teach it to others
• Master's/PhD with 3+ years, of experience in hardware test software, ATE systems, or test architecture, ideally in semiconductor or photonics
• Experience integrating ATE with wafer-level hardware (probers, handlers) is a strong plus
• Experience with photonic test instrumentation
