Job Description Summary

The Probe Product Engineer in STPG Product Engineering owns probe strategy and silicon learning at wafer test, spanning presilicon designtoprobe staging, firstsilicon bringup, qualification, and highvolume manufacturing (HVM).

This role is accountable for defining probe coverage intent, establishing limits and guardbands grounded in silicon behavior, and driving yield, quality, and testcost outcomes. The focus is on interpreting design intent, device operation, and process interactions, and translating product risk into robust, manufacturable probe strategies aligned with downstream test and customer requirements.

The engineer works closely with Design, DFT, Design Validation (DV), Process Integration, Backend Test, and Reliability teams to ensure probe solutions are technically sound, scalable, and productcentric across the lifecycle.

Key Responsibilities

Probe Coverage Strategy & Ownership

Define and own probe coverage intent by mapping design features, device behavior, and process risks into probe observability, screening mechanisms, trims, and guardbands.
Define, release, and sustain probe test flows from first silicon through qualification and HVM, ensuring coverage objectives are met without unnecessary test overhead.
Establish probe limits and guardbands based on silicon characterization, design intent, and customer specifications, with clear alignment to downstream test.
Lead probe enablement for new product introductions (NPI) and technology ramps, identifying coverage and manufacturability risks early and driving mitigation plans.

PreSilicon DesigntoProbe Staging & DFT Readiness

Partner with Design, DFT, and DV teams during presilicon phases to drive effective designtoprobe staging.
Review and influence DFT architecture, test hooks, observability, redundancy, and trim structures to enable efficient and manufacturable probe coverage.
Participate in presilicon verification and simulation reviews to reduce firstsilicon debug risk.
Define probe coverage intent early and ensure continuity from design features through probe and downstream test (shiftleft learning).

First Silicon BringUp & Device Characterization

Support firstsilicon bringup using engineering probe platforms and labbased characterization setups.
Perform silicon and devicelevel characterization (parametric behavior, margins, trims, stress response) to inform probe limits and screening strategy.
Correlate early silicon behavior with probe results to validate coverage intent, identify gaps, and eliminate redundant content.
Provide early silicon learning to accelerate probe flow stabilization and yield ramp.

Yield, Quality & Reliability Enablement

Drive waferlevel yield learning, bin definitions, and failuremode analysis at probe.
Enable intrinsic and extrinsic screening strategies in collaboration with Reliability teams.
Provide structured, databacked feedback to Fab, Process Integration, Design, and DV teams to close learning loops efficiently.

Test Efficiency & Cost Optimization

Drive test efficiency improvements through coverage rightsizing and flow optimization, aligned to product and market needs.
Support waferlevel speed (WLS) activities as part of broader probe optimization efforts.
Balance coverage, yield, quality, and cost tradeoffs using silicon data and product risk understanding.

Data, Analytics & AI Enablement

Leverage probe, inline, and reliability data for yield analysis, anomaly detection, and decision support.
Contribute to AI/ML initiatives such as predictive probe, smart sampling, and test optimization.
Apply datadriven insights to continuously improve probe effectiveness and efficiency.

Artificial Intelligence

Using, applying, and leveraging AI, identify opportunities to streamline workflows, optimize processes, and support innovation by incorporating AI-driven solutions and enabling data-driven decision-making across projects and teams

Required Qualifications

Bachelor's, Master's degree, or Phd in Electrical / Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering (with strong hardware, circuits, or semiconductor focus), Semiconductor Physics, or related field.
Strong fundamentals in semiconductor devices, wafer test, and product engineering.
Demonstrated ability to use silicon behavior and characterization data to make informed probe, yield, and coverage decisions.
Experience or strong interest in silicon learning, device behavior, yield mechanisms, DFT intent, or designtomanufacturing integration.
Strong analytical skills and ability to drive structured rootcause analysis.
Effective communication skills and ability to work across global, crossfunctional teams.

Career Growth & Impact

Direct ownership of probe strategy and quality outcomes across the product lifecycle.
Exposure to advanced technology nodes, customerdriven requirements, and largescale manufacturing systems.
Clear growth paths across senior technical contributor, product leadership, or people management tracks within STPG Product Engineering.
