Job Description:

The Member of Technical Staff (MTS) in Product Development Engineering will play a critical role in developing and validating advanced test methodologies for Altera’s FPGA products. This position requires deep technical expertise in full-chip test methods, on-chip DFT (Design-for-Test) definition and verification, and silicon debug. The role combines hands-on engineering with leadership in cross-functional collaboration, ensuring robust test capability, optimized manufacturing processes, and high-quality product delivery.

Key Responsibilities

• Test Method Development: Define, develop, verify, and optimize full-chip test methodologies, including on-chip DFT strategies, test vector generation, and coverage analysis.
• ATE Program Development: Design and implement automated test equipment (ATE) programs, ensuring accuracy, efficiency, and scalability.
• Silicon Debug: Lead first-silicon debug activities, driving root-cause analysis and corrective actions to ensure product reliability.
• Cross-functional Collaboration: Work closely with global teams in design, software, manufacturing, and product engineering to embed test capability throughout the product lifecycle.
• Test Optimization: Drive continuous improvements to reduce test cost, enhance product quality, improve manufacturing efficiency, and accelerate production stability.
• Module Development: Develop CMT/HMDT test modules, convert test patterns from STIL to pobj, and validate test programs on testers.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s in Electrical Engineering or equivalent, with a minimum of 10 years of experience in semiconductor product development, test engineering, or related fields.
• Strong knowledge of digital and analog circuits, with proven experience in FPGA product development and test methodologies.
• Proficiency in scripting languages such as TCL and PERL, with strong debugging and problem-solving capabilities.
• Strong analytical and troubleshooting abilities, with demonstrated success in resolving complex technical challenges.
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to work effectively across global, cross-functional teams.
• Experience mentoring engineers and fostering collaborative, high-performance teams.
