Product Quality Engineer

Elevate Semiconductor's mission is to serve our semiconductor and system test customers by providing world class test integrated circuits (ICs) that address the industry's most complex ATE challenges. We strive to exceed our customer's expectations, now and well into the future, through designing the lowest power/highest density solutions, with the goal of providing the lowest possible cost of test.

The Product Quality Engineer is responsible for developing portions of the characterization and qualification plans as well as the manufacturing flow and strategy. During the silicon evaluation phase, works closely with the Test Engineer to develop a characterization program and to determine the performance of the device. As the device enters production, work closely with the production facilities to transfer the application to the production site and works any sustaining issues as needed.

The Product Quality Engineer is expected to work across multiple organizations and disciplines.
