A
Hardware Engineer, ATE and Test Hardware
On-siteFull-timeHardware EngineeringSemiconductor Manufacturing
Design and own automated test equipment hardware for cellular IoT chipset programs, covering RF and analog circuitry, multilayer PCBs, prototype bring-up, validation, and production correlation. The role is based in Israel and includes international travel to partner and test-house sites.
Responsibilities
- Own ATE and test hardware from requirements through schematic, PCB layout, fabrication, bring-up, and correlation
- Design DUT/load boards, multi-site test boards, and characterization setups
- Design RF and analog front-end circuits, including RF chains, matching networks, switch topologies, and interfaces
- Create manufacturable multilayer PCB outputs, including high-layer-count boards, blind and buried vias, stackups, impedance specifications, Gerber files, and ODB++ files
- Debug test systems to root cause across signal integrity, tester interfaces, yield, and correlation
- Lead failure analysis covering power sequencing, RF performance, and functional validation
- Perform and interpret laboratory measurements
- Coordinate with silicon, systems, firmware, test teams, and external vendors
- Debug hardware at international partner and test-house sites
Requirements
- B.Sc. in Electrical or Electronic Engineering
- At least 5 years of board-level hardware design experience, including schematic-to-production or high-reliability validation
- Expertise in schematic capture and multilayer PCB design, preferably with Cadence Allegro or OrCAD
- Direct experience designing, bringing up, and debugging ATE or test hardware on a tester
- Strong bench-debugging and failure-analysis skills
- Solid RF and analog fundamentals, including matching, impedance control, RF switching, and front-end trade-offs
- Proficiency with VNA, spectrum analyzer, oscilloscope, and other RF or general laboratory instruments
- Knowledge of power delivery, sequencing, and low-power design for battery-powered IoT devices
- Willingness to work on-site and travel internationally
Nice to have
- Experience with a specific ATE or tester family and multi-site DUT board design
- Cellular modem integration, including LTE-M or NB-IoT, or comparable wireless SoC hardware
- C or Python for bring-up and test automation
Benefits
- Work-life balance
- Mentoring from experienced engineers
- Collaborative, flat organization
- Long-term career development
