The Role

The Foundry Testing Engineer is responsible for ensuring the quality, reliability, and performance of semiconductor devices manufactured at the foundry. The role involves wafer sort, final test, yield analysis, test program development, and close collaboration with design, process, and manufacturing teams to optimise test coverage and production yield.

Key Responsibilities

Test Development & Execution

  • Develop, debug, and maintain ATE test programs for wafer sort and final test
  • Define test flows, limit setting, binning strategies, and fault coverage
  • Support new product introduction (NPI) testing activities

Manufacturing & Operations Support

  • Execute and monitor wafer probing and final test operations
  • Investigate and resolve test-related failures, yield loss, and test escapes
  • Support high-volume manufacturing (HVM) testing

Yield & Failure Analysis

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
