Overview

Do you enjoy working in a creative fast-growing entrepreneurial environment? With indie you´ll never walk alone! We place high value on our teams and pursue excellence for our employees and customers!

indie is empowering the Autotech revolution with next generation automotive semiconductors and software platforms. We focus on edge sensors spanning multiple modalities including LiDAR, radar, ultrasound and vision for Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), autonomous vehicles, connected car, user experience and electrification applications.

As a Product Engineer at indie Semiconductor, you will play a key role on the Product Engineering team, driving the release of ARM microcontroller-based ASIC automotive semiconductor products through their full lifecycle. Your responsibilities will encompass developing production test plans to verify product performance and conducting robust statistical analyses to establish test limits and ensure datasheet compliance.

This role requires close collaboration with Design Engineering, DFT Engineering, Test Engineering, Applications, Marketing, and QA/Reliability Engineering to address and resolve issues related to sample, pre-production, and full production product releases. You will also work with internal and offshore test facilities to transition products to production. A strong understanding of semiconductor manufacturing processes—including foundry, assembly, and test—is essential, along with the ability to work effectively across multiple engineering disciplines globally.

Key Responsibilities

  • Collaborate with Design and ATE Engineers to document specification compliance requirements, test flows, test plans, correlations, and full test coverage.
  • Partner with Product Reliability and Packaging teams to define qualification test plans, schedules, and execute AEC-Q100 qualifications and PPAP on time.
  • Identify creative solutions to optimize product cost margins by improving assembly/test yields, reducing test times, and minimizing scrap costs throughout the product lifecycle. Implement a systematic Automotive Zero-Defect Strategy.
  • Conduct root cause analysis and problem resolution using 8D methodology, including failure mode identification, material impact assessment, and fallout analysis.
  • Perform data analysis, failure characterization, and fault isolation to determine root causes.
  • Characterize products across Process/Voltage/Temperature corners and calculate datasheet limits.
  • Establish and document all NPI and production manufacturing processes, including hardware, BOMs, costing, MSA/Gage R&R, assembly and packaging records, CP/FT test solutions, backend records, and safe launch plans.
  • Coordinate closely with foundries, planning teams, program management, and OSAT assembly and test vendors to manage prototype packaging and ATE test solution transfers from sampling to production on aggressive schedules.
  • Provide real-time customer support for design, product, and quality-related concerns.
  • Monitor assembly and test yields, continuously identifying opportunities for improvement.

Required Qualifications

  • Education: BS in Electrical Engineering or equivalent (Master’s degree preferred).
  • Experience: Over 5 years as a Product Engineer in the semiconductor industry.
  • Technical Skills:
    • Knowledge of ARM microcontroller flash memory, analog ASIC products, and high-speed data communication protocols (e.g., MIPI). Experience with RF and mmWave products is a plus.
    • Proficiency in ATE and bench characterization of semiconductor devices at wafer and package levels. Familiarity with Advantest 93k, DFT, memory/logic BIST, and SCAN shmoo techniques.
    • Strong data analysis skills using tools such as Excel, JMP, YieldHub, DataPower, Data Conductor, or Galaxy.
    • Expertise in product reliability and qualification standards (JEDEC, AEC-Q100) and zero-defect strategies.
    • Familiarity with schematic tools for HTOL and BHAST generation.
  • Soft Skills:
    • Strong communication and teamwork abilities.
    • Proven experience collaborating with cross-functional teams and subcontractors, including foundries, assembly/test houses, and reliability/qualification test vendors.

Voluntary Self-Identification

For government reporting purposes, we ask candidates to respond to the below self-identification survey. Completion of the form is entirely voluntary. Whatever your decision, it will not be considered in the hiring process or thereafter. Any information that you do provide will be recorded and maintained in a confidential file.

As set forth in indie Semiconductor’s Equal Employment Opportunity policy, we do not discriminate on the basis of any protected group status under any applicable law.

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

An "Armed forces service medal veteran" means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
