Ciklum is looking for a Test Engineer to join our team full-time in Romania.

We are a custom product engineering company that supports both multinational organizations and scaling startups to solve their most complex business challenges. With a global team of over 4,000 highly skilled developers, consultants, analysts and product owners, we engineer technology that redefines industries and shapes the way people live.

About the role:

As a Test Engineer, become a part of a cross-functional development team engineering experiences of tomorrow. Our Client is an Israeli technology company that develops 4D imaging radar chipsets and perception solutions for advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous vehicles (AV). Its proprietary radar technology delivers ultra-high resolution environmental sensing, providing detailed range, velocity, azimuth, and elevation data that helps vehicles detect, track, and classify objects in all weather and lighting conditions. These solutions are designed to enable safer driver-assist features today and support higher levels of vehicle autonomy in the future. The company’s products include radar chipsets and perception radar systems used by automotive OEMs and Tier-1 suppliers globally. We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Test Engineer to join our Product and Test Engineering team. In this role, you will be responsible for the development, implementation, and optimization of production test solutions for highly integrated SoC (System on Chip) devices. Your expertise will span across Digital, Mixed-Signal, and RF domains, ensuring our ICs meet the highest standards of quality and performance before reaching the customer.

Responsibilities:

• Test Hardware Development: Design and oversee the fabrication of complex Load Boards (DIBs) and Probe Cards. This includes PCB schematic capture and layout review to ensure signal integrity for high-speed digital and RF paths
• Test Program Development: Create, debug, and maintain automated test equipment (ATE) programs (e.g., Advantest V93K, Teradyne UltraFLEX) for wafer sort and final test
• Mixed-Signal & RF Testing: Develop characterization and production test plans for ADCs, DACs, PLLs, and RF components (LNA, PA, Mixers)
• Silicon Validation: Collaborate with Design and Validation teams to correlate ATE results with bench measurements and design simulations
• Yield Optimization: Analyze large datasets using statistical tools (JMP, Spotfire) to identify yield detractors, perform root-cause analysis, and implement test time reduction (TTR) strategies
• DFT (Design for Test): Provide feedback to the design team on DFT features such as Scan, BIST (Built-In Self-Test), and Loopback modes to improve test coverage and observability

Requirements:

• Education: BS/MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field
• Technical Experience: 5+ years of experience in IC testing, specifically focusing on Mixed-Signal and RF products
• ATE Proficiency: Hands-on experience with industry-standard ATE platforms (Advantest, Teradyne, or Cohu)
• Programming: Proficiency in C/C++, Python, or Perl for test script automation and data analysis
• RF Fundamentals: Deep understanding of RF parameters such as S-parameters, NF (Noise Figure), IIP3, EVM, and Phase Noise
• Hardware Skills: Experience with lab equipment including Oscilloscopes, Spectrum Analyzers, and Vector Network Analyzers (VNAs)

Desirable:

• Experience with high-volume manufacturing (HVM) environments and offshore OSAT management
• Strong analytical mindset with the ability to solve complex problems under tight deadlines
• Excellent communication skills to bridge the gap between Design, Product, and Operations teams
• Advantage : Knowledge of automotive test standards (AEC-Q100) or aerospace reliability requirements

What`s in it for you?

• Strong community: Work alongside top professionals in a friendly, open-door environment
• Growth focus: Take on large-scale projects with a global impact and expand your expertise
• Tailored learning: Boost your skills with internal events (meetups, conferences, workshops), Udemy access, language courses, and company-paid certifications
• Endless opportunities: Explore diverse domains through internal mobility, finding the best fit to gain hands-on experience with cutting-edge technologies
• Enjoy radical flexibility – work remotely or from an office, your choice
• Care: Medical subscription to Regina Maria, meal tickets of 16 ron net/day worked
