We are seeking a highly experienced and proficient ATE (Automated Test Equipment) Specialist to provide 1-on-1 online training. The ideal candidate will have deep hands-on industry experience in hardware/semiconductor testing, test program development, and Python scripting for instrument control and automation. This role includes comprehensive technical instruction as well as targeted test/interview preparation.
Key Responsibilities
- ATE Training: Deliver structured, practical online training covering ATE architecture, test methodologies, pin electronics, digital/analog testing, and debugging techniques.
- Python Test Automation: Teach Python scripting specifically tailored for test engineering—including instrument control (e.g., PyVISA, SCPI commands), automated test sequencing, data logging, and test data analysis (Pandas/NumPy).
- Test & Assessment Prep: Prepare the learner(s) for technical assessments, certifications, or engineering interviews through mock tests, practical coding challenges, and troubleshooting scenarios.
- Hands-On Guidance: Provide live code reviews, assist in designing mock test plans/fixtures conceptually, and walk through real-world ATE debugging workflows.
- Session Planning: Customize lesson plans based on learner progress and provide post-session practice assignments or reference materials.
Required Qualifications & Skills
- Proven Industry Experience: Minimum
[5+]years of hands-on experience working as an ATE Test Engineer, Hardware Verification Engineer, or Test Development Engineer. - ATE Platform Proficiency: Deep familiarity with standard ATE systems (e.g., Teradyne, Advantest, NI TestStand/LabVIEW, or custom rack-and-stack setups) and lab bench equipment (oscilloscopes, SMUs, multimeters, power supplies).
- Strong Python Skills: Advanced proficiency in Python for hardware interfacing, automation frameworks (such as
pytest), serial/GPIB/LAN communication, and parsing large test logs. - Teaching & Mentorship Ability: Prior experience mentoring junior engineers, conducting technical training, or tutoring online with clear, patient communication.
- Availability: Reliable availability on weekends (
[Specify Time Zone, e.g., EST / GMT / IST]) with a stable high-speed internet connection and screen-sharing setup for live coding and diagram walkthroughs.
Preferred (Nice-to-Have) Qualifications
- Experience with specific semiconductor testing (IC, RF, Mixed-Signal, or PCB/PCBA functional testing).
- Familiarity with C/C++ or legacy ATE languages alongside Python.
