Product Test Engineer

The Silicon One Productization team pioneers manufacturing and test solutions to accelerate time-to-market and enable outstanding supply chain metrics. We are looking a Product Test Engineer to manage volume test operations at the OSATs to meet production targets. You will be working with advanced networking silicon and solving hardware and software problems in close partnership with product development engineering and the OSATs.

What You'll Do

Our team develops test requirements for groundbreaking IP, to minimize test overhead both in design and for production. We develop custom test solutions spanning high power, large dies, and packages to cost-sensitive products.

You will partner with the PDE and OSAT teams to transfer the ATE and SLT test programs from the Cisco lab to the production environment. You are Cisco's first line of defense and first responder in case of any production issues - hardware or software-related. You will be responsible for the prompt resolution of any test issues and drive OSATs to meet metrics for throughput, yield, cycle time, and uptime.

Your role will be to ensure that the OSAT roadmap and capacity ramp plans align with the Cisco product ramp and manage/maintain the production test hardware. You will evaluate test vendors and make recommendations for alternate site bring-ups and complete the qualification activities.

You will also provide Engineering support to the Manufacturing Operations team for quarterly planning, ship reviews, and ongoing production optimization. You will partner closely with the Data and Automation Solutions team to perform statistical data/yield/correlation analysis on large data sets to drive test and yield optimization.
