Electrical Schematic / PCB Design Engineer (Semiconductor Test Hardware)

Job Description

Job Description

About the role :

We’re looking for an engineer who can translate customer inputs—Word specs, Excel netlists / BOMs, interface requirements, and legacy drawings—into robust electrical schematics that drive high‐quality PCB designs for semiconductor test hardware (probe, final test load boards, interface / fixture boards, handler interface, and related assemblies). You’ll own schematic capture and collaborate closely with PCB layout, mechanical, test, and manufacturing partners to deliver first‐pass success on fast‐moving customer programs.

What you’ll do :

• Own schematic capture from ambiguous or mixed customer inputs; clarify requirements, define architecture, and drive parts selection and library needs.
• Create well‐constrained designs that account for ATE realities (signal integrity, crosstalk, leakage, guarding / guard rings, Kelvin connections, relay / mux topologies, pogo / contactor constraints, ESD, thermal).
• Partner with PCB layout to enforce design rules for high‐density, high‐pin‐count boards (fan‐out, length / phase matching, differential pairs, controlled impedance, reference plane strategy, return current).
• Generate and maintain deliverables : schematics, netlists, constraints, design notes, BOMs, test points, release packages, and ECOs.
• Interface with customers (design reviews, DFM / DFT tradeoffs, risk / mitigation plans) and internal cross‐functional teams (ME, Test, Supply Chain, CM).
• Shepherd designs through build : fab / assembly bring‐up support, issue triage, corrective actions, and documentation updates.
• Continuously improve our libraries, checklists, and design standards for ATE hardware.
