Built on our proprietary sub- and near-threshold technology, our chips deliver multi-fold improvements in energy efficiency without costly process scaling. Since 2010, we've shipped over 300 million units to customers building smarter wearables, medical devices, IoT products, and AI-powered edge applications.
Our cross-functional teams span design, research, development, production, marketing, sales, and operations across Austin, Hsinchu, Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Singapore. We move fast, tackle hard problems, and create space for people to grow through complex, meaningful work that shapes the future of technology.
We're looking for self-motivated, creative problem-solvers who are eager to push technological limits and make a real impact in energy efficiency.
At Ambiq, we live by five values: Innovate. Collaborate. Focus. Learn. Achieve.
If that's you, join us — the intelligence everywhere revolution starts here.
As the Staff Engineer, Product Test Engineering at Ambiq, you will drive the development and optimization of ATE test solutions for integrated circuits, supporting product ramp-up and high-volume manufacturing. You will be responsible for improving production yield and reducing test costs while ensuring the highest standards of product quality and reliability.
This role will work with Product Engineering, Design Engineering, Quality Engineering, Operations, and external OSAT partners to support new product introduction, production qualification, and manufacturing test optimization across Ambiq’s semiconductor product portfolio.
The successful candidate demonstrates strong technical leadership and a data-driven approach to problem-solving. They are highly collaborative, capable of working effectively across cross-functional and global teams, and possess excellent communication skills to drive alignment with internal and external stakeholders. The ideal candidate is proactive, results-oriented, and continuously seeks opportunities to improve quality, efficiency, and manufacturing performance.
The person in this role will develop and maintain ATE test programs and test hardware for new and existing products throughout characterization, qualification, and production. They will lead device characterization, system-to-tester correlation, production site transfer and qualification activities, and support manufacturing ramp-up. This role will analyze test and yield data to identify root causes, implement corrective actions, and drive yield improvement initiatives. Additionally, they will optimize test methodologies and coverage to reduce test costs while maintaining product quality and reliability requirements.
