Manufacturing test of highly integrated Systems-on-Chip (SoCs) is a complex challenge — both technically and organizationally.
Test development complexity often delays overall project schedules, while manufacturing test typically accounts for 5–15% of total SoC manufacturing cost.
What I offer:
- Support engineering and executive leadership in defining, benchmarking, and optimizing Design-for-Test (DfT), Manufacturing Test, and Yield strategies, aligned with business goals and tailored to organisational structures.
- Manage test-related programs — from test concept definition and DfT implementation through test development, manufacturing introduction (NPI), and yield optimization.
