SLT Test Engineer (Software/Hardware)

Responsibilities & opportunities in this role:

• Own design and validation of System Level Test from software perspective.
• Write code to help communicate SLT handler to test controller and to peripherals like temperature control units
• Write test methods, scripts and code to create a test Flow encompassing all the key system level tests provided by the systems validation team
• Automate and integrate SLT tests to create a master Test flow for the SLT testing on the handler
• Develop custom tests on the system level to create the most effective screen tests for SLT
• Define HVM (High Volume Manufacturing) test requirements, collaborate closely with System architecture, chip design, and System validation teams to help create production ready SLT flows
• Collaborate with chip design and system validation teams to develop a test plan for System to Tester correlation for optimizing power and performance
• Drive SLT handler selection for a customized SLT solution
• Drive SLT handler enablement by working closely with multiple vendors
• Define and drive PCB designs for the SLT solution
• Define and drive SLT hardware solutions for sockets, Temperature control units etc.
• Drive the selection of system test requirements for NPI, HVM, platform to platform correlation, and RMAs
• Work with chip test (ATE) and System Validation teams to decide how to improve the overall manufacturing test coverage
• Establish network connectivity by understanding the network topology
• Datalog manipulation to fit industry standards
• Provide production sustaining support at OSAT for DPPM reduction, yield analysis, RMA debug, and test time reduction
• Support Silicon Qual activities (HTOL/Burn In) from a system level
