Software Engineer Systems (DFT Initiative)

Are you interested in working on tools and software that directly enable hardware validation Our Hardware Test Engineering team is evolving our Design for Test (DFT) methodology and were building the software infrastructure to support it effectively.n

This is an opportunity to develop software tools that control and automate hardware testing. Youll work on designing u0026 building maintainable software that directly interfaces with test hardware and equipment. This isnt high-level application softwareits hands-on software engineering focused on creating tools that manage the actual execution of hardware you enjoy hands-on software development with clear real-world impact and youre interested in the intersection of software and hardware testing this role offers meaningful work with tangible results.n
