Test Manager

Lead Test SME 1The Test Development Engineer is responsible for architecting, coding, and deploying advanced hardware and software test solutions across all manufacturing stages of high-performance compute infrastructure. This role focuses on maximizing fault coverage and yield throughput by designing customized functional test (FCT) code, configuring automated test equipment (ATE) fixtures, integrating high-speed JTAG/Boundary Scan diagnostics, and working with tier-1 silicon architects to execute comprehensive test validation routines.Design for Testability (DFT) & Proactive PlanningDFT Optimization: Analyze circuit schematics and layout files to ensure adequate physical test point allocation, maximizing structural test access metrics before design release.Silicon Diagnostic Hookup: Collaborate with tier-1 chip vendors (e.g., Nvidia, Broadcom, Marvell) to implement and exercise built-in self-test (BIST), custom firmware loops, and JTAG boundaries.Test Hardware & Software Solution DevelopmentAutomated Software Architecture: Develop, debug, and maintain scalable automated test code scripts using Python, C/C++, or LabVIEW to control instruments and extract diagnostics.Fixture & Interface Design: Specify, debug, and qualify hardware test interfaces, bed-of-nails fixtures, loopback cards, and switching matrices for ICT, FCT, and System-Level Test (SLT).Coverage Metric Validation: Map and maintain comprehensive test coverage matrices, linking structural diagnostic coverage to systemic product escape mitigations.Production Tuning & AnalyticsYield & GR&R Optimization: Perform Gauge R&R studies, stability analysis, and statistical limit tuning (SPC) to eradicate false-failures and optimize overall test sequence cycle times.Debug & Failure Analytics: Provide rapid deep-dive diagnostic support for initial prototype failures, cross-referencing diagnostic log outputs with SMT and box build history to identify systemic defects.Knowledge/Skills/CompetenciesSoftware Fluency: Strong proficiency coding in Python, C/C++, Linux shell scripting, or LabVIEW within test automation environments.Hardware Fluency: Expertise operating oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, high-speed BERTs, and boundary scan tools (e.g., JTAG Provision, Corelis). Deep understanding of ICT/FCT/SLT platforms.Physical DemandsDuties of this position are performed in a manufacturing environment with frequent exposure to elements such as noise, dust, chemicals, operating machinery, temperature extremes, etc. Duties of this position require periodic light physical effort and exertion including prolonged repetitive motion, standing, sitting in a confined work space, climbing, using equipment, handling lightweight materials, etc. Duties may require periodic sustained visual concentration on a computer monitor or on numbers and other detailed data. May require occasional travel.Typical Experience3+ years of experience in hardware test development, manufacturing test software execution, or diagnostic code engineeringTypical EducationBachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or closely related field.
