As a Member of Technical Staff (MTS) SLT Product Development Engineer, you will be responsible for developing and driving SLT test solutions to meet production business milestones and KPI metrics (test time, yield, cost, quality). You will provide technical leadership through interaction with Diagnostics, Quality & Reliability, BIOS, software and platform teams to balance quality and cost.

• Accountable for driving test solution/coverage development and optimization to meet business milestones such as schedule, test time, yield, cost and quality.
• Have extensive experience with direct SLT test patterns, calibration test flow/method development, debug, test and characterization within an NPI product engineering team.
• Collaborate with various engineering teams to determine SLT coverage, content, characterization requirements, and root cause resolution for SLT device failures.
• Engage early in pre‑ and post‑silicon phases, including test flow planning, test coverage bring‑up, test flow integration, and test hardware checkout.
• Validate new product features, test conditions, test methodologies, and test contents.
• Perform silicon characterization across process, voltage, and temperature.
• Conduct engineering evaluation, test program correlation, releases for high‑volume production and engineering enhancement or improvement projects.
• Drive key performance indicators such as test time reduction, yield debug, quality improvement across products and innovate test strategy.
• Provide overall Test Engineering support for AMD’s S3 products tested at global facilities.
• Work with regional teams, including product development and manufacturing, during early cycle bring‑up for product cycles at high‑volume sites.
• Represent the test team on any test excursions and issue escalations to the respective owner for resolution or containment action.
• Interface between AMD and OSAT for test program implementation and operation issue resolution.
• Strong understanding of test program, good communication and capability to drive/deliver critical business milestones.
• Provide technical supervision or mentoring to junior engineers.
• Familiarity with RMA debug is a plus.

• Mastery of test principles in System Level Test or x86 system architecture.
• Extensive experience as an SLT technical leader with a successful track record of bringing up test patterns, debugging low yield, test flow integration and characterization in an NPI product engineering team.
• Proficient in Windows, Unix, and Linux operating systems.
• Experience in platform test and debug.
• Experience with IC test and ASIC bring‑up and support activities.
• Technical knowledge in OS kernel, driver, BIOS firmware.
• Demonstrated programming and scripting experience in languages such as C, C++, Java, Ruby, Perl, Python.
• Knowledgeable in version control tools (Git).
• Electrical/Electronics, Computer Engineering, or comparable disciplines.

BS/MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a comparable discipline.
