Principal Product Testing Engineer for NAND Flash
Summary
Designs and runs reliability tests for NAND flash memory chips, debugs failures, and works with teams to improve product quality and test coverage.
Key Responsibilities:
- Responsible for the performance, power consumption, and reliability testing and analysis of NAND memory products, and formulating test specifications and verification processes.
- Develop and maintain test equipment (ATE), including the definition and implementation of test modes such as BIST, DFT, and DFM, continuously improving test coverage and optimizing test time.
- Locate the causes of product failures after delivery and at the wafer stage through electrical failure analysis, design circuit analysis, physical failure analysis, and data analysis.
- Collaborate with the product design team and process team to identify the root causes of failures and drive the implementation of solutions.
- Support the testing and debugging of products in system-level applications (such as SSD, UFS, eMCP) to ensure efficient use by customers and the system side.
- Complete user manual verification, product test function verification, and participate in other test-related tasks assigned by the supervisor.
Required Qualifications:
1. Education and major: Master's degree or above in microelectronics, integrated circuits, electronic engineering, computer science, automation, physics, materials science, or other related STEM fields.
2. Experience requirements:
- Familiar with semiconductor product principles and testing mechanisms; background in memory (NOR/NAND Flash, SRAM, DRAM, phase-change memory, ferroelectric, etc.) testing or design verification is a plus.
- Experience in testing 3D-NAND, TLC/QLC, or flash memory products is a plus.
- Experience with successfully tape-out and mass-produced memory chip projects is a plus.
3. Technical skills:
- Proficient in C/C++, Python, Perl, etc., and familiar with UNIX/Linux environments.
- Experience in ATE (Automatic Test Equipment) development (e.g., T5830, T5833, Magnum V93K, etc.).
- Familiar with the functions, performance, and reliability indicators of memory products.
- Familiar with design-for-test (CFT), DFM, and other design-for-test (CFT) methodologies.
4. Other skills:
- Strong logical analysis, learning, and problem-solving abilities.
- Good communication, organizational, and teamwork skills.
- Proactive, steady, meticulous, responsible, and able to work under pressure.
