About the Team
We are committed to sourcing, attracting, and hiring high-performance innovators, while providing all candidates a positive recruitment experience that builds our brand as a great place to work.
You’ll perform measurements as they come in as well as working on longer term activities relating to improving the operation of our test labs in San Jose. We have a wide range of equipment for characterization of semiconductor devices – automated parametric test systems, semiconductor parameter analyzers, noise characterization systems, TLP testers (used for ESD structure characterization), semi-automatic and automatic probe stations with most testing done at the wafer level.
The lab works on a variety of technologies including image sensors, ASICs, BCD, high voltage, analog mixed signal, and low voltage. You will support daily activities but also will get a chance to work on longer term improvement to have a lasting impact on our lab.
As new technology development requires development of devices which must be characterized, this work is a critical part of the device development process and we are for someone who can help improve efficiency.
Some typical activities would be:
- Wafer level measurements on test structures using semiconductor parameter analyzers
- Writing and running test programs on our Keysight/Agilent automatic parametric test systems (code in Rocky Mountain Basic or C)
- Testing ESD (electrostatic discharge) devices using TLP (transmission line pulse) testers
- Writing scripts to summarize large amounts of data using appropriate scripting languages
- Performing noise measurements using a flicker noise system
