We are looking for an experienced PCBA Test Engineer to join our test engineering team. This role sits at the intersection of DFT, debug, NPI test and high-volume ICT & FCT production test bring up for all Aeva’s product lines.
Job Responsibility:
Drive PCBA testability (DFT) from schematic review through high-volume manufacturing
Integrate test points, boundary scan, and other DFT techniques into PCB designs to enhance test coverage and fault detection
Define and enforce test access requirements: test points, boundary scan chains, probe access, isolation, and segmentation
Develop test methods using python programming used for functional and parametric test on NPI PCBA test stations developed in-house at Aeva
Define the test requirements and support the development of functional test (FCT) at CM for high volume manufacturing
Bring up new PCBA tests from first power-on to full functional validation
Isolate intermittent, marginal, and low-yield failures using systematic debug methods including debug of power integrity, clocks, resets, boot sequences, and mixed-signal paths
Correlate ICT/FCT failures with schematic intent, layout, and silicon performance
Use advanced instrumentation (scopes, logic analyzers, current probes, thermal tools) to capture elusive failures
Create debug playbooks, DFT guidelines, and failure isolation documentation
Collaborate with engineering and manufacturing teams to ensure on time delivery with optimum test coverage at lowest cost
Document test strategies, procedures, and results for internal reference and compliance purposes
Prepare reports to analyse and document test results, and perform SPC analysis of new test fixtures/techniques to validate or establish monitors of critical test processes
Provide end-to-end support through entire product life cycle from NPI (New Product Introduction) to high volume manufacturing
Requirements:
Bachelor’s degree in Electrical/Electronics Engineering or equivalent experience
7+ years of hands-on PCBA test, debug, and DFT experience
Expert ability to read and critique schematics and PCB layouts
Deep understanding of analog, digital, power, and mixed-signal systems
Strong practical knowledge of ICT, FCT, and boundary scan (JTAG)
Proven track record of improving yield through DFT and failure analysis learnings
Strong understanding of electronics, digital and analog circuits, and PCB assembly processes
Proficiency in PCB design software tools such as KiCAD, Cadence, or similar
Hands-on experience in Python programming for test automation
Experience with data analysis using tools such as JMP and dashboards
Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to troubleshoot complex technical issues
Strong communication and teamwork skills to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams
Experience working with CMs worldwide
Excellent verbal and written communication and presentation skills and capable of making clear conclusions and recommendations
What we offer:
comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage
pre-tax commuter and health care/dependent care accounts
