Test and Equipment Engineering Technician

Hands-on technician role performing troubleshooting, repair, calibration, preventive maintenance (PM), and continuous improvement on semiconductor manufacturing test equipment to sustain uptime, yield, and output. Partners with Test Engineering and Production to meet daily dispatch, MUBA/MTBF targets, quality compliance, and audit readiness.

Diagnose and repair ATE/handler/prober issues (electrical, mechanical, pneumatic, thermal, interface). Perform changeovers, load board/contact kit care, socket change, alignment, and correlation checks. Contain and escalate inline quality issues; support DOEs, GRRs, R&Rs, and golden device management. Execute scheduled PMs, calibrations, verifications; log work in Camstar/iTV with full traceability.

Monitor machine alarms; respond to iTV downs; drive MTTR down with robust fault isolation. Track and improve MUBA, First-Pass Yield, Uptime, Repeat Assist rate. Own 5S, ESD compliance, lockout/tagout (LOTO), and safety hazard reporting. Maintain spares, order critical parts, and collaborate on BOM/consumables min-max.

Update work instructions (WIs), PM checklists, and one-point lessons; train peers. Participate in RCCA, 8D, FMEAs; implement corrective actions and verify effectiveness. Support audits (internal, customer, ISO/IATF) with records and instrument traceability. Diploma/Associate’s/Bachelors (preferred) in ECE/EE/ME/Mechatronics (or equivalent experience); 2+ years in semiconductor test, electronics manufacturing, or ATE/handler maintenance.

Knowledge: Electrical/electronic fundamentals, pneumatics, mechanics, ESD controls, safe LOTO. Tools: basic SPC, DMM/oscilloscope, crimping/soldering, torque tools. Documentation: Clear English (and local language) documentation; WI/PM log discipline.
