Advantest is seeking a Senior Principal AI Test Automation Engineer to
design and deliver reliable automation for complex engineering and production
test environments.

This role combines advanced test engineering, software automation, CI/CD, and
AI-enabled workflows. You will build repeatable systems that validate, execute,

environments.

We are looking for a hands-on technical leader who understands both physical
test systems and modern software architecture.

Key Responsibilities
- Architect production-grade test automation and CI/CD pipelines.
- Automate build, validation, execution, artifact collection, analysis, and
release gating.
- Integrate AI-generated recommendations into controlled engineering
workflows.
- Define validation and approval gates before automated actions interact
with hardware.
- Build structured interfaces between AI systems, test software, instruments,
and data services.
- Develop failure classification, diagnostics, recovery, and escalation
processes.
- Create reproducible execution environments using containers and version
controlled configurations.
- Establish observability, regression testing, and evidence-based release
criteria.
- Mentor engineers and set technical standards for automation and
production readiness.
