What is a semiconductor characterization?

A Semiconductor Characterization job involves testing and analyzing the electrical, optical, and material properties of semiconductor devices to ensure performance and reliability. Professionals in this role use advanced lab equipment such as probe stations, parameter analyzers, and oscilloscopes to measure key characteristics like mobility, carrier concentration, and defect density. Their work is crucial for optimizing fabrication processes, validating device designs, and troubleshooting issues in semiconductor manufacturing.

What does a semiconductor characterization do?

In a Semiconductor Characterization role, your daily tasks often include preparing test setups, performing electrical and physical measurements on semiconductor devices, and analyzing the resulting data to assess performance or reliability. You'll collaborate closely with design engineers and process technologists to interpret test results and troubleshoot any anomalies. Documentation of procedures, maintaining test equipment, and sometimes developing automated test routines are also common responsibilities. This role typically involves both hands-on lab work and detailed data analysis to support ongoing product development and improvement.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in semiconductor characterization?

To thrive in Semiconductor Characterization, you need a strong background in materials science, electrical engineering, or physics, along with experience in device testing and data analysis. Proficiency with tools such as semiconductor parameter analyzers, probing stations, and characterization software like LabVIEW or MATLAB is highly valued. Attention to detail, problem-solving abilities, and effective communication are important soft skills for collaborating with cross-functional engineering teams. These competencies are crucial to ensure accurate device evaluation, efficient troubleshooting, and the reliable reporting of test results in semiconductor development environments.

Test Engineer — ATE (Semiconductor Test Development)

Location: Austin, TX

Job Type: Contract

About Tessolve

Tessolve Semiconductors, a venture of Hero Electronix, is a Design and Test Engineering Service Company providing end-to-end solutions across Product Engineering, Software, Hardware, Wireless, Automotive, and Embedded domains. With 2,500+ employees worldwide, Tessolve combines pre-silicon and post-silicon expertise to deliver turnkey solutions from spec to silicon bring-up to packaged parts. Tessolve has a global footprint with offices in the US, India, Singapore, Malaysia, Germany, UK, China, Japan, Thailand, and the Philippines, plus test labs in India, Singapore, Malaysia, Austin, and San Jose.

About the Role

We're looking for a Test Engineer to develop and support automated test programs for [e.g., PMIC, RF front-end modules, mixed-signal SoCs] on Teradyne ATE platforms. You'll own test development from bring-up through production, working closely with design and product engineering to get silicon qualified and shipping.

What You'll Do
  • Develop, debug, and optimize ATE test programs for digital, PMIC, RF, or mixed-signal devices
  • Work hands-on with Teradyne UltraFlex / UltraFlexplus platforms for device characterization and production test
  • Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines (GitLab, Jenkins) to automate test program builds, validation, and deployment
  • Write test automation and data-analysis scripts in Python, Perl, or similar
  • Collaborate with design, product, and yield engineering teams to root-cause test failures and improve test coverage/throughput
  • Support correlation between engineering and production test data across [[2: number of sites/programs, or specific fabs/OSATs involved]]
  • Document test procedures and drive continuous improvement in test time and yield
What You Bring
  • Bachelor's or Master's in Electrical/Electronic Engineering or related field
  • 5+ years of ATE test development experience
  • Hands-on experience with Teradyne UltraFlex / UltraFlexplus testers (required)
  • Experience testing digital, PMIC, RF, or mixed-signal devices
  • Working knowledge of CI/CD tooling (GitLab, Jenkins) in a test/production environment
  • Proficiency in a scripting language (Python, Perl, etc.)
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills — this role works across engineering, product, and manufacturing teams
What We Offer

Highly competitive compensation and benefits, with a dynamic, growth-focused work environment to scale your skills and career.
