Responsibilities
  • Drive the specification process for a parallel wafer-level test tool, coordinating with internal teams on pad accommodations and initial bring-up plans.
  • Define and execute the hardware/software validation path, verifying individual vendor components (such as single-die verification or pin-to-pad communication) independently from the complete solution.
  • Assemble comprehensive test plans, including defining instruction sets for our unique displays.
  • Define input and output data streams with vendors, and coordinate test and information systems (IS) infrastructure to manage and transfer massive die-level datasets.
  • Define the operational flow, integrate the reliability tool with the manufacturing execution system (MES), and establish clear standard operating procedures (SOPs).
