ATE Test Development Engineer (Technical Lead)

About the role

Broadcom's Global Operations team, which supports the Core Switching Group (networking switches for NIC, Scale Up, Scale Out and Scale Across in traditional and AI data centers), is looking for an ATE Test Development Engineer in Singapore. This is an individual contributor role with technical leadership responsibility: you will lead a team of test and product engineers and build a new ATE lab from the ground up.

Key responsibilities

• Develop ATE test programs for high-power, high-speed SERDES (>100G) switch ASICs, building complex test flows covering performance and power consumption specifications.
• Take products from design through to manufacturing release.
• Provide technical direction to a team of test and product engineers and work closely with Product and Design Engineers.
• Create the lab infrastructure for a new ATE lab, select and bring in testers, handlers and active thermal controllers (ATCs), and work with vendors to maintain lab equipment.
• Drive development of final test and probe hardware, debug and bring up test hardware on the ATE, and work with PCB designers, probe and socket vendors.
• Reduce test time and improve yield without affecting product quality, troubleshoot failure mechanisms with cross-functional teams, and release test programs to the production team in Asia.
• Collaborate with CMs to improve yield on existing products.

Required profile

• Bachelor's degree with 8+ years of related experience, or Master's degree with 6+ years of related experience.
• Ability to lead and mentor other engineers.
• Preferred: experience setting up or expanding an ATE lab, including equipment selection and vendor management.

Required skills

• Hands-on experience with Teradyne UltraFlex tester platforms.
• Ability to independently develop test programs, including complex flows.
• Programming experience for test method development.
• Debugging and troubleshooting failure mechanisms with cross-functional teams.
• Volume data analysis, correlating ATE failures with system-level failures, and proficiency with data analysis software or languages.
• Understanding of how test hardware affects chip behavior at the ATE.
• Experience with extreme-temperature testing of ASICs at the ATE.
• Preferred: experience with AI tools for quick script development.
