What You'll Do

You will take on a technical leadership role within the Test Development Engineering team, responsible for architecting, developing, and deploying Automated Test Equipment (ATE) solutions for up-to-date, highly complex ASICs and SoCs. You will own the end-to-end test development lifecycle from pre-silicon DFT engagement to post-silicon bring-up and high-volume manufacturing (HVM) release.
As a senior technical driver, your responsibilities will include:
• Test Architecture & Development: Architect, write, and debug complex ATE test programs for wafer sort and final test
• Silicon Bring-Up: Lead first-silicon ATE bring-up, characterization, and validation of complex networking processors and multi-die packages.
• DFT Collaboration: Partner closely with Design for Test (DFT) and ASIC design teams during the pre-silicon phase to define testability requirements, evaluate test coverage, and simulate test vectors (SCAN, MBIST, JTAG, High-Speed I/O).
• Yield & Test Time Optimization: Drive pivotal initiatives for Test Time Reduction (TTR)



and yield optimization without compromising test coverage or product quality.
• Manufacturing Deployment: Lead the seamless transfer and release of robust test programs to offshore assembly and test (OSAT) partners. Resolve complex test-related issues in high-volume manufacturing.
• Mentorship & Leadership: Serve as a domain expert and technical escalation point. Mentor junior engineers and drive continuous improvement in test methodologies and automation.

Who You'll Work With

You will collaborate with ASIC design / DFT teams in the Central Hardware Group, peer Product Development Engineers & Test Engineers in Silicon Operations and with Project Managements, Test engineering, Quality & Reliability, Supply Chain Planning. You will also work with Cisco’s manufacturing partners to triage any failures and manage the OSAT production test activities.
