Engineering Manager System Performance Algorithms
This is a visible engineering leadership role for someone who wants to shape the calibration software and algorithms behind advanced semiconductor system-on-chip (SOC) test systems. You will lead a team responsible for turning instrument capability into repeatable production-ready measurement accuracy across digital DC and AC/RF measurement instruments used within automated test platforms. The work directly affects instrument performance system uptime manufacturing throughput product quality and customer confidence.
Why This Role Matters
- Calibration is a core enabler of SOC test system performance accuracy and repeatability.
- This team develops the software algorithms data analysis methods and engineering practices that make high-precision instruments production-ready.
- The right leader will help scale calibration capability across platforms while improving accuracy reducing calibration time and strengthening manufacturing readiness.
What You Will Do
- Guide the calibration software and algorithm roadmap for digital DC and AC/RF measurement instruments used in SOC test systems.
- Lead and develop a team of hardware and software-oriented calibration engineers setting clear priorities technical direction and delivery expectations.
- Lead automated calibration algorithm development that improves measurement accuracy reduces calibration cycle time and supports scalable manufacturing deployment.
- Oversee integration of calibration routines into Teradynes IG-XL test software environment and related maintenance software workflows including C#-based workflows and supporting automation.
- Use calibration data statistical process control and failure trends to identify systemic improvements reduce downtime and improve successful completion of calibration or test workflows on the first attempt.
- Partner closely with hardware software manufacturing quality and product teams to ensure calibration methods support product requirements compliance expectations and customer use cases.
- Build a team culture focused on engineering rigor accountability continuous improvement and practical innovation.
What Success Looks Like
- Calibration solutions are delivered with clear technical ownership predictable execution and measurable impact on accuracy throughput uptime or manufacturability.
- The team scales beyond individual expertise through better tools reusable algorithms disciplined reviews and stronger cross-functional alignment.
- Hardware software manufacturing and quality partners have confidence in the calibration roadmap technical decisions and readiness plans.
Required Qualifications
You do not need to match every possible technology listed below. We are looking for an engineering leader with the technical depth to guide calibration software and the leadership capability to build an effective collaborative team.
- Bachelors degree in Electrical Engineering Computer Engineering Computer Science Physics or a related technical field.
- 8 years of relevant engineering experience including experience leading engineering teams or technical projects that deliver production-quality software algorithms test capability or instrumentation solutions.
- Practical understanding of calibration instrumentation automated test equipment semiconductor test high-precision measurement systems or related domains.
- Software fluency sufficient to guide algorithm development automation debugging and integration in environments such as C# C/C Python IG-XL or similar test software frameworks.
- Demonstrated ability to collaborate across hardware software manufacturing quality and product teams while communicating clearly with technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Experience with semiconductor or electronics manufacturing environments including new product introduction (NPI) production test or manufacturing readiness.
- Familiarity with statistical process control data analytics predictive maintenance Six Sigma methods ISO NIST or other calibration and quality standards.
- Experience improving measurement accuracy calibration cycle time test throughput system uptime yield or first-pass success in a complex engineering environment.
Preferred Qualifications
- Masters degree in Electrical Engineering Computer Engineering Computer Science Physics or a related technical field.
- Experience with SOC test systems ATE platforms RF/AC instrumentation DC instrumentation or digital instrument calibration.
- Background leading teams that combine software hardware data analysis and system-level debug.
- Track record of mentoring engineers improving engineering process and developing repeatable methods rather than depending on isolated individual contributions.
Why Candidates Should Be Excited
- You will work on technically challenging calibration problems where software precision measurement instrumentation and manufacturing scale all intersect.
- You will have the opportunity to influence both technical architecture and team capability not just manage task execution.
- You will lead work that has visible impact on product performance manufacturing readiness customer confidence and long-term platform scalability.
Fast-Fit Candidate Profile
This role may be a good fit if you have led engineers in semiconductor test ATE instrumentation calibration manufacturing test systems software test automation or high-precision measurement environments and want to lead a team whose work directly improves product performance and production readiness.
We encourage candidates to apply even if they do not meet every qualification. If your experience is closely related and you are excited about leading calibration software for complex test systems we would like to hear from you.
