Overview
Join to apply for the
ATE Test & Product Development Engineer
role at
AMD Base pay range
$123,760.00/yr - $185,640.00/yr The Role
Test Engineering is a results-oriented team focused on cost, quality, and time-to-market to ensure microprocessors are delivered efficiently to customers. Pre-silicon responsibilities include comprehending product features, crafting characterization test plans, identifying gaps in test coverage, and developing both software and hardware infrastructures necessary for plan execution. This role demands close collaboration with Design and Platform Engineering teams and offers opportunities to provide feedback for future test enhancements. Post-silicon duties involve microprocessor debugging, analysis, and execution of characterization plans, addressing silicon performance, yield, manufacturing processes, and device marginalities. The Test Engineer will work closely with cross-functional teams to identify root causes from debug and margin analysis activities and contribute datasheet specifications while driving continuous improvements in yield. The Person
This position requires accountability for the quality and timeliness of outcomes within assigned projects or processes. The ideal candidate demonstrates problem-solving abilities through standard engineering methodologies and exercises independent judgment in complex technical decisions. Responsibilities include design and equivalent tasks within defined project scopes, covering test planning, creation, characterization, data analysis, and silicon debug for advanced process technologies. Key Responsibilities
Sound understanding of Computer Architecture, including pipelining, caching, x86 architecture, and PC organization Proficiency in software programming (Python, Ruby, C++, Java, C, or C#); scripting languages (Perl, Ruby, shell script, etc.) Experience with Lean, XP, AGILE, Scrum, or Kanban methodologies Familiarity with version control systems (GIT, SVN, CVS, etc.) Industry experience in processor test development, validation, and/or debugging Academic background in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Digital Logic, and Circuit Theory Experience with Linux/Unix and Microsoft Windows operating systems, as well as standard office applications Preferred Experience
Practical knowledge of silicon debug using ATE, including implementation of test specifications, pattern/vector development, and timing Familiarity with Scan/ATPG methodologies, hardware compression, failure mechanisms, debug processes, and AC scan development Experience with functional or cache resident testing Understanding of modern SRAM cell operation, associated debug, test, and characterization; familiarity with Memory BIST engines Background in analog/mixed-signal DFT for microprocessor architectures Experience with Verigy 93K ATE platforms, including infrastructure and methodologies for connectivity-based testing Strong communication and data presentation skills Proficiency with diagnostic tools such as logic analyzers, voltmeters, oscilloscopes, and related equipment Knowledge of JTAG IEEE 1149.1 specification and hardware description languages Statistical analysis expertise for population means and outlier identification; Pareto analysis for debug processes Relevant professional experience in any of the aforementioned areas is highly valued Academic Credentials
B.S. or M.S. in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a directly related field. Location
