Senior Technician, PMIC Product & Test Development Engineering

General Summary Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. – Engineering Services Group – Engineering Technician. The PMIC Product Development and Test Engineering (PDTE) group develops bench‑ and ATE‑based test solutions to enable silicon validation, characterization, qualification, and high‑volume manufacturing of Qualcomm’s highly integrated Power Management and Analog ICs. This Senior Technician role is a hands‑on position focused on bench and ATE execution, hardware bring‑up, measurement reporting, and lab operations in support of PMIC design verification, new product introduction (NPI), and production support activities across the full product lifecycle. Key Responsibilities Execute IC validation and characterization testing on bench and Automated Test Equipment (ATE) platforms for PMIC and Analog devices. Set up, maintain, and debug bench test systems, PCBs, and supporting lab hardware. Perform electrical measurements, process and analyze data, and clearly document results. Partner closely with IC Design, Systems, Product, Bench, and Test Engineers to debug silicon, hardware, and test issues. Support hardware and software debug, including basic test scripts, instrument control, and measurement automation. Calibrate and maintain bench test equipment and ensure measurement integrity and repeatability. Support NPI and qualification activities, including correlation between bench, ATE, and manufacturing test environments. Assist with high‑volume manufacturing support, including yield excursions, test escapes, customer return (RMA) analysis, and debug activities. Contribute to continuous improvement of lab efficiency, safety, and best practices. Required for this Role Associate’s degree, or higher, in Electrical Engineering, Electronics, or related technical field, or equivalent practical experience. Strong understanding of electrical engineering fundamentals, including circuit analysis and hardware debug. Ability to read and work from electrical schematics and mechanical drawings. Hands‑on experience with common lab equipment: oscilloscopes, power supplies, electronic loads, spectrum/network analyzers, power meters, etc. Working knowledge of PMIC and analog measurements, such as load/line regulation, PSRR, efficiency, power, jitter, and phase noise. Familiarity with PCB bring‑up, rework, and troubleshooting. Understanding of engineering statistics and data interpretation. Strong documentation and communication skills; able to work effectively with cross‑functional teams. Ability to manage multiple tasks and support schedule‑driven execution in a fast‑paced environment. Preferred Qualifications Exposure to Automated Test Equipment (ATE), wafer probers, and device handlers. Experience supporting new product introduction (NPI) or silicon qualification activities. Experience with measurement automation or instrument control software (e.g., Python, C#, or similar). Understanding of high‑volume semiconductor manufacturing and production test flows. Strong soldering and rework skills (fine‑pitch components preferred). Prior experience supporting PMIC, mixed‑signal, or analog ASICs in a lab or manufacturing environment. Minimum Qualifications Bachelor's degree. Associate's degree and 1+ year of Engineering Technician or related work experience. High School Diploma or equivalent and 2+ years of Engineering Technician or related work experience. Physical Requirements Frequently transports and installs equipment weighing at least 25 lbs.
