About the role

We are looking for an experienced Board Validation and Test Engineer to join our test engineering team. This role, you will drive board DFT, design validation test platforms and high-volume ICT & FCT bring up for all Aeva’s product lines.

What they're looking for

  • Develop test platforms for initial board bring up and low volume prototype and engineering validation builds. Write test methods and extract metrics using python programming for these test platforms
  • Assess contract manufacturing capabilities and define the requirements for in-circuit test (ICT) and functional test (FCT) for high volume manufacturing
  • 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
More about this role

Aeva’s mission is to bring the next wave of perception to a broad range of applications from automated driving to industrial robotics, consumer electronics, consumer health, security, and beyond. Aeva is transforming autonomy with its groundbreaking sensing and perception technology that integrates all key LiDAR components onto a silicon photonics chip in a compact module. Aeva 4D LiDAR sensors uniquely detect instant velocity in addition to 3D position, allowing autonomous devices like vehicles and robots to make more intelligent and safe decisions.
