Analog/Mixed-signal IC Bench Testing Engineer

Title: Analog/Mixed-Signal IC Bench Testing Engineer (Contractor)

(write Python test scripts to test/Characterize IC s IPs)

Location: Irvine, CA Onsite

Length of Contract: 6 months+ Potential extension

Hours: 40 hours per week

Ideal Start Date: Beginning of Feb 2026 and will interview now to secure this position for Feb.

Overview

This position involves bench testing the analog and mixed-signal portion of our IC product(s). The candidate will be responsible executing a bench verification test plan. It involves writing multiple Python scripts to communicate with the device-under-test (DUT). The Python script also controls bench equipment such power supply, function generator, oscilloscope, temperature chamber, etc. to monitor/record the DUT response. Our product contains many analog IPs such as LDOs, ADCs, DAC, amplifiers, PLL/oscillators, comparator, and etc. We are responsible for bench testing and characterizing the mentioned IPs against the specification.

Responsibilities:

• Develop Python test scripts to test/characterize the IC s analog and mixed-signal IPs
• Build and maintain (debug) an automated bench setup.
• Executing tests (running automated tests) over multiple parts and voltage and temperature.
• Working with a team of engineers
• Analyze test data for anything out-of-spec or unusual behavior
• Identify bugs through bench testing

Qualifications:

• Experience with Python programming for electronic equipment automations.
• Strong knowledge of various analog and mixed-signal functions such as comparator, ADC, DAC, low-pass filter, oscillator/PLL, LDOs, amplifiers, etc.
• Experience with lab test equipment and bench testing
• Good technical knowledge of various mixed-signal IPs such interrupt, GPIO, RESET, SPI, etc.
• Experience semiconductor bench testing and verification is a plus
• Skills in data analysis and technical reporting
• Self-starter and team-oriented player who require a minimum learning curve.
