Senior Staff Hardware Test Automation Engineer

As a Hardware Test Automation Engineer you’ll have the opportunity to work across some combination of: an internal test software framework (Java/Python-based), industry-standard ATE test method and testflow development, wafer prober integration, instrument control (optical and electrical sources, meters, sensors), embedded/firmware interfaces on the hardware side, and data pipelines from lab equipment to structured results Learn the hardware you’re automating well enough to make informed software decisions about it Design and build test software that automates device bring-up, characterization, and production test sequences across bench and ATE environments Develop and maintain test methods, test flows, and instrument control code depending on level and project while writing code and reviewing code are both daily parts of the role Work directly with hardware and characterization engineers to understand their needs and translate device physics and test requirements into working, repeatable test software Build and maintain data logging and results pipelines so test data is captured accurately and usable downstream (metric computation, yield analysis, production handoff) Debug test hardware/software integration issues, working across the device under test, the fixture, the instrument, and the test code to find root cause Support test program releases to internal test cells and, at senior levels, to external test facilities Communicate daily with the team on progress and blockers, and spend regular time in the lab working hands-on with hardware
