Location: Goa

Company: Siemens

Key Responsibilities

Test Engineering & Optimisation

  • Develop, validate, and maintain ICT (In‑Circuit Test), FCT (Functional Circuit Test), and Boundary Scan (B‑Scan/JTAG) test programs for PCBA.
  • Define optimal test strategies combining ICT, B‑Scan, and FCT to maximise coverage and minimise escapes.
  • Support test fixture development, probe optimisation, and overall test coverage improvement.
  • Optimise test programs to improve First Pass Yield (FPY) while reducing false failures and retest rates.

Statistical Analysis & Drift Monitoring

  • Monitor component parameter drift and behavioural changes over time using production and test data.
  • Perform histogram analysis, distribution studies, trend monitoring, Cp/Cpk, and statistical correlation analysis.
  • Identify shifts caused by component ageing, supplier variation, and manufacturing process drift.
  • Refine ICT/FCT/B‑Scan test limits, algorithms, and guard bands based on statistical evidence.
  • Establish data‑driven criteria to clearly differentiate normal process variation from true failure conditions.

Failure Analysis & Root Cause

  • Perform in‑depth electrical and functional failure analysis on PCBA defects.
  • Debug issues related to components, solder joints, assembly process, design margins, and test coverage gaps.
  • Apply systematic root cause methodologies such as 5‑Why, Fishbone, Pareto, and correlation analysis.
  • Drive corrective and preventive actions with design, process, quality, and supplier teams.

Automation & Programming

  • Develop and enhance test programs, analysis scripts, and automation tools using:
  • VB.NET
  • Python
  • C++
  • Automate test data collection, report generation, statistical analysis, and failure trend monitoring.
  • Support integration of test systems with MES, databases, and cloud platforms where applicable.

Electronics & Debug

  • Strong foundation in analog and digital electronics.
  • Ability to read and interpret schematics, layouts, BOMs, and test specifications.
  • Hands‑on experience debugging PCBA‑level electrical and functional issues.

 PCBA Assembly Process Knowledge

  • Strong understanding of SMT, THT, reflow soldering, wave soldering, and typical assembly defects.
  • Ability to correlate assembly process variation with test behavior and failures.

Qualifications and Skills

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electronics Engineering, or related field with 3+ years of experience in PCBA trsting..
  • Strong proficiency in advanced statistical analysis
  • Proficiency in programming languages and software tools used for test development (e.g., LabVIEW, VB.net, Python, C/C++).
  • Knowledge of Boundary scan technology.
  • Knowledge on microcontrollers and its basics.
  • Proven experience in in-circuit testing and electronic test engineering.
  • Familiarity with in-circuit testing equipment, such as flying probe testers and bed-of-nails testers.
  • Strong understanding of electronic components, circuit board design, and manufacturing processes.
  • Knowledge on board-level programming and communication protocols (JTAG, SPI, Serial – USB and RS232, Ethernet, GPIB)
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
  • Effective communication and collaboration abilities.
  • Proven team player, high on collaboration with partners.
