Senior Product Test Engineer

The company

EM Microelectronic designs and manufactures ultra-low power semiconductor solutions for battery-operated and field-powered applications. With decades of mixed-signal expertise, we serve global markets in automotive, industrial, and consumer electronics through a portfolio including BLE, RFID, MCUs, and sensor interfaces.
Driving smart, efficient electronics - where ultra-low power meets real-world reliability.

As part of the R&D Product Engineering team, you will play a key transversal role in ensuring the robustness, scalability, and sustainability of test solutions across both development and production phases. You will act as a technical interface between development, quality, and manufacturing teams, with a strong focus on continuous improvement, standardization, and knowledge transfer.

This role is based at our headquarters in Marin/Neuchâtel with no remote or hybrid work possibility.

Job description

Your key responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

  • Support production with product related Non-Conformance events and clear them with the support from the quality and development teams
  • Ensure test solution robustness against production, quality, and reliability requirements.
  • Analyze test data (yield, escape rate, coverage) and drive corrective actions.
  • Contribute to cost-of-test reduction and test flow optimization initiatives.
  • Collaborate with offshore teams and OSATs for technical support, solution transfer, and capability building.
  • Define and maintain test standards, development guidelines, and validation tools.
  • Train and mentor junior engineers and internal partners on best practices in test and product engineering.
