Radio Frequency Test Engineer

Company Mission

Making high-performance RF semiconductor devices, tested and proven at wafer level.

Role Overview

You'll join the engineering team as an RF Test Engineer, reporting to the Engineering Manager. Your focus will be wafer-level testing across RF and DC: keeping production test systems running well, bringing new products into production and using test data to keep improving how things are done.

What You'll Own

Test Systems and Methodology

• Looking after RF and DC wafer-level test systems so production results stay accurate and repeatable
• Setting test approaches for S-parameters, noise figure, golden wafer and Gauge R&R
• Developing test hardware, software and algorithms, including LabVIEW applications
• Specifying, sourcing and commissioning probe cards and test equipment

New Products and Data

• Working alongside Product Engineering and Production to build test capability for new products
• Turning test data into wafer maps, SPC, correlation and product performance reports
• Device characterisation, evaluation and diagnostic testing

Production Support

• Diagnosing and resolving production test issues
• Training and supporting Test Technicians and Operators
• Keeping test software, procedures and equipment records up to date
• Finding ways to make test more efficient, reliable and safe

What We're Looking For

Essential

• Experience in volume semiconductor test engineering
• Hands-on use of RF/microwave test equipment: VNAs, spectrum analysers, oscilloscopes and signal generators
• Experience developing or supporting DC and/or RF semiconductor test systems
• Programming experience in LabVIEW, C++, C#, .NET, VB or similar
• Confident with data analysis and statistical techniques, including SPC
• HND or degree in Electrical/Electronic Engineering or a related subject
• Comfortable working on your own or within a project team, and happy to share knowledge with colleagues

Useful

• Experience selecting and commissioning test equipment
• In-depth LabVIEW experience
• Experience supervising staff
