In this role, you will be responsible for designing and developing advanced digital instrumentation for ATE. This role involves circuit design, schematic development, PCB layout collaboration, hands-on debugging, and performance validation. You will also contribute to system-level discussions and work closely with cross-functional teams to deliver high-quality, innovative solutions that meet demanding specifications.
Responsibilities
- Contribute to the design and development of advanced digital instrumentation for ATE (Automated Test Equipment).
- Apply understanding of digital instrumentation design concepts for test equipment (experience in tester architecture is a strong plus).
- Generate high-level functional block diagrams based on predefined instrument architectures.
- Estimate circuit power consumption at the block diagram level and refine through detailed design.
- Translate functional block diagrams into detailed circuit designs using Cadence Concept Schematic Capture.
- Collaborate with CAD engineers to transition schematic designs into PCB layouts, leveraging familiarity with layout tools such as Allegro.
- Develop theory of operation documents, define circuit test strategies, and establish test setups and limits.
- Perform bring-up, functional debugging, and characterization of digital circuits.
- Validate circuit behavior and performance against specifications and product requirements.
Qualifications
- Education: Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering (BSEE) required; Master's degree (MSEE) preferred.
- Experience: 5–10 years of experience in digital hardware design; prior work in test equipment development is highly desirable.
- Strong knowledge of digital circuit design at both gate level and transistor level.
- Ability to create and interpret hardware block diagrams and schematics.
- Familiarity with engineering, manufacturing, and customer requirements.
- Proven ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams, including Software, Firmware, and Mechanical Engineering.
- Programming experience (C, C++, Python, LabVIEW, Verilog, etc.) is an advantage.
- Proficiency with simulation tools such as Spice, Verilog simulators, and 3D field solvers.
- Strong analytical, problem-solving, and debugging skills, with hands-on laboratory experience.
- Demonstrated ability to deliver high-quality designs on time.
- Self-motivated, innovative, and passionate about technology development..
- Must be proficient in English both oral and written.
