Job description
In your new role you will:
  • Qualifying the Infineon Design Packages (DP) components (set of std-cell, io, mem libraries, run sets) using the Infineon Design Flow (set of tools and methodologies).
  • Ensuring high quality Design System’s deliverables by doing early full chip qualification environment and test a DP significantly before the dedicated Product line/test chip use them.
  • Developing test plans, test-cases and executing test-cases to verify the integrity of major features for flow & library interfaces, changes across various tools, methodologies, and technologies.
  • Alignment with design system(s)/flow teams, on integration level test topics and automation.
  • Propose and implement test automation ideas to improve the turnaround time of test execution.
  • Enhancement, addition, and maintenance of testcases, needed for qualifying the DP.
  • Collaboration with various internal stakeholders, Business Line product team(s) to assure proper quality deliveries with adequate coverage.
  • Having an overview and understanding of the relevant functional inter dependencies, trending software automation framework to improves execution efficiency.
