Austin, TX $140K–$270K Posted 2026-10-21
Salary
$140K–$270K
Type
Full-time
Experience
5+ yr
  • Mythic’s end-to-end production test strategy across  Wafer Sort, Final Package Test, characterization, screening, and volume ramp
  • Test programs for new silicon products, from development and debug through production release and optimization
  • Test methodology, coverage strategy, screening philosophy, and release criteria
  • Silicon bring-up, characterization, correlation, guardbanding, and test transfer into manufacturing
  • Yield and quality analysis: finding systematic failures and escapes and driving them to root cause
  • Day-to-day technical work with OSATs, foundries, and ATE vendors to deploy and sustain test flows
  • Tradeoffs across test coverage, cost, test time, quality, and ramp schedule
  • Infrastructure, automation, and analytics for production test and yield learning

Required qualification

  • 5+ years in semiconductor test engineering, product engineering, or production test development
  • Hands-on ownership of Wafer Sort and Final Package Test
  • Developing, debugging, and releasing test programs on ATE platforms in production
  • Converting and translating test patterns from STIL, WGL, and VCD into ATE-specific pattern formats
  • Solid grounding in manufacturing test flows, device screening, test coverage, guardbanding, and outgoing quality
  • Experience taking silicon through bring-up, characterization, yield ramp, and production release
  • Strong debug skills and fluency with manufacturing test data
  • Experience working with design, DFT, product, reliability, and operations teams

Preferred qualifications

  • Testing mixed-signal or analog silicon, including trim and calibration
  • Experience with AI, accelerator, or high-performance compute silicon
  • Experience with Advantest, Teradyne, or similar ATE platforms
  • Probe cards, load boards, hardware interfaces, and test hardware debug
  • DFT structures such as scan, MBIST, and boundary scan
  • Managing OSATs and other external manufacturing partners
  • Scripting, automation, and test-data analysis (e.g., Python, JMP, or yield-analysis tools)
  • A track record of reducing test time and improving yield and correlation during ramp

What success looks like in your first year

  • Wafer Sort and Final Test flows are robust, scalable, and released to production
  • New products move from bring-up to manufacturing with strong coverage and few surprises
  • Yield issues are caught early and driven to root cause quickly
  • Test programs are stable, efficient, and built to scale with volume

When determining compensation, a number of factors will be considered, including skills, experience, job scope, location, and competitive compensation market data.
