OverviewOSI Optoelectronics is seeking a Test Engineer to join the team. This individual is responsible for developing and executing semiconductor wafer and chip-level testing, characterization, and qualification to ensure product quality and reliability. They will design, implement, and automate test methodologies, including test scripts, data analysis, troubleshooting, and process optimization. They support semiconductor assembly, packaging, and production test activities while collaborating with devices, process, and manufacturing teams to resolve technical issues. They will also drive the evaluation and adoption of advanced test equipment, software, automation tools, and emerging technologies to build a scalable, efficient, and future-ready test infrastructure.
Responsibilities- Develop and implement new test methodologies, test specifications, and test systems for current and next-generation semiconductor products.
- Introduce automated test solutions, including software, scripting, data acquisition, instrument integration, and automated reporting, to improve test efficiency, repeatability, and throughput.
- Translate product requirements into comprehensive electrical, optical, functional, and reliability test specifications.
- Lead systematic troubleshooting of complex test and product failures and identify root causes using structured engineering methodologies.
- Establish robust failure-analysis and test-correlation methodologies to distinguish between product, process, equipment, and test-system-related failures.
- Evaluate emerging test technologies, instrumentation, software platforms, and equipment and determine how they can be incorporated into our manufacturing environment.
- Establish scalable test platforms and architectures that can support multiple products and future product requirements rather than relying primarily on product-specific or manual test solutions.
- Utilize test data, statistical methods, and automated analysis to identify trends, improve test coverage, increase yield, and reduce test-related escapes.
- Work closely with Device Engineering, Process Engineering, Manufacturing, Quality, and R&D to ensure that test requirements are incorporated early in the product-development cycle.
- Establish a roadmap for modernizing our test infrastructure and developing the internal technical capability needed to support future business growth.
- Uphold the company's core values of Integrity, Innovation, Accountability, and Teamwork.
- Demonstrate behavior consistent with the company's Code of Ethics and Conduct.
- It is the responsibility of every employee to report to their manager or a member of senior management any quality problems or defects in order for corrective action to be implemented and to avoid recurrence of the problem.
- Duties may be modified or assigned at any time to meet the needs of the business.
Qualifications- B.S. in Electrical Engineering, Electronics, Semiconductor Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related technical discipline required. M.S. degree desired.
- Must have at least five (5) years of hands-on experience in semiconductor test engineering, wafer-level testing, device characterization, or production test.
- Demonstrated experience developing and executing electrical tests for semiconductor wafers, dies, and packaged devices needed.
- Must have strong knowledge of semiconductor test equipment, wafer probing, probe stations/probe cards, SMUs, oscilloscopes, and automated measurement systems.
- Strong programming and scripting skills in Python, C/C++, LabVIEW, MATLAB, or similar languages, with the ability to develop automated test and data-analysis solutions are required.
- Proven ability to troubleshoot complex problems involving semiconductor devices, test hardware, instrumentation, software, and measurement systems is a must.
- Must have experience with test automation, data acquisition, statistical analysis, SPC, yield analysis, and test-data visualization.
- Experience developing test methods and transitioning them from R&D/engineering environments into reliable production test systems required.
- Strong analytical and root-cause problem-solving skills with the ability to work independently in a hands-on laboratory and manufacturing environment are essential.
- Excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration skills needed.
- Experience with photodiodes, APDs, optical sensors, transistors, or other semiconductor devices is highly desirable.
- Experience developing scalable, next-generation automated test platforms and applying advanced data analytics to semiconductor test and yield improvement is a plus.
