Job DescriptionThe ATE Intern will support the Automated Test Equipment (ATE) and Planning team with a combination of administrative, project coordination, and hands-on test floor activities. This role provides exposure to test engineering and application engineering within a semiconductor and electronics testing environment.

The intern will initially support administrative and planning-related duties for ATE workflows, including project tracking, documentation management, test equipment inventory, travelers, compiling reports, and shipping/receiving activities. As training progresses, the intern will have opportunities to work on the test floor, supporting actual testing activities and gaining hands-on exposure to automated test equipment platforms.

This internship is designed to provide end-to-end exposure to the ATE project lifecycle—from project scoping and planning through execution and testing—while working closely with experienced engineers, planners, and test floor personnel.

Key responsibilities include:

Supporting ATE administrative and planning workflows (JIVA-based processes)Assisting with project management tasks, tracking schedules, and documentationMaintaining and organizing test equipment inventory and configuration recordsCompiling reports and supporting quoting and planning activitiesAssisting with shipping/receiving and equipment logisticsShadowing ATE engineers and supporting test floor operationsLearning common ATE platforms and their configurations (e.g., UltraFLEX, ETS, Advantest, Croma)Gaining exposure to application engineering and test system stack-ups

Learning & Development Opportunities:

During the initial phase of the internship, the intern will learn ATE platforms, instruments, and system configurations while shadowing engineers and planners. Early responsibilities include supporting documentation, inventory tracking, and helping build an ATE equipment configuration database.

As competency develops, the intern will work more closely with the planning and IT teams to support quoting processes within JIVA and gain deeper insight into the technical requirements of ATE projects. Depending on progress and readiness, the intern will expand responsibilities to include test floor support and application engineering activities.

The intern will gain:

Understanding of the complete ATE project lifecycleExposure to common ATE platforms and peripheralsInsight into test engineering and application engineering rolesHands-on experience in a semiconductor test environmentPractical knowledge of how hardware, software, and instrumentation work together to ensure product qualityQualificationsThis internship offers hands-on exposure to test engineering, application engineering, and automated test equipment within a professional lab and production environment. No prior ATE experience is required; training will be provided.

Preferred fields of study include:

Electrical EngineeringComputer EngineeringMaterials Science and EngineeringMechanical EngineeringPhysicsOr other related engineering or technical degreesPreferred qualifications and attributes include:

Strong interest in semiconductor testing, hardware, and electronicsWillingness to work in both office/planning and hands-on test floor environmentsAbility to understand technical concepts and apply them in real-world settingsStrong attention to detail and commitment to accuracy and qualityAbility to learn quickly and adapt to new systems and toolsOrganizational skills and comfort working with technical documentationPositive attitude, curiosity, and eagerness to learnDependability and ability to work both independently and as part of a team
