Job Description:

Own FPGA post-silicon validation for assigned domains/products: lead design bring-up, plan and execute PVT and non-PVT testing including regression, build scalable design/test automation, and drive debug to closure. High individual ownership with strong cross-team collaboration (DV, IPSS, Customer Support).

Key responsibilities

• Lead design bring-up on FPGA/silicon:
• Own validation covering PVT (corners, voltage/temp sweeps, fmax/margin, stress) and non-PVT (functional, feature, system)
• Define, maintain, and scale regression suites (content, automation, overnight runs, fail triage, exit criteria)
• Architect and deliver design/test automation in Python, Tcl, and C
• Use RTL and on-chip debug to root-cause failures across HW, timing, firmware, and board
• Set test plans, coverage expectations, and validation exit criteria for assigned work
• Defines and delivers continuous improvement of silicon validation environment and methodologies
• Debugs and resolves silicon bring up issues, documents the solutions, troubleshoots, and debugs silicon from prototype to production.
• Partner with DV, IPSS, and Customer Support on correlation, integration, and customer/field issues
• Mentor junior engineers; review bring-up quality, regression health, and documentation
• Represent validation in milestone reviews and technical escalations

Preferred

• Depth in one or more of: Ethernet, ANLT, PTP, D-PHY, CPRI, JESD, SerialLite, DP, HDMI, SATA, SAS
• Thermal chamber / shmoo / margin characterization
• Board/schematic literacy; basic SI/PI for high-speed links
• Mentored juniors or led a validation workstream
• Emulation or pre-si to post-si correlation experience

Soft skills

• Self-motivated technical owner for domain/product validation outcomes
• Strong individual contributor who delivers with limited oversight
• Effective team collaborator across DV, IPSS, Customer Support, and design

 

Qualifications:

• B.E. / B.Tech / M.S. in ECE, EE, Computer Engineering, or related
• 5–8 years experience in post-silicon / FPGA / HW validation or protocol bring-up, aligned to Grade 6 / 7
• Proven ownership of design bring-up and HW validation through production-quality outcomes
• Hands-on PVT and regression planning, execution, and fail analysis
• Strong HW knowledge plus automation in Python, Tcl, and C
• Solid RTL debug ability (Verilog/SystemVerilog or VHDL)
• FPGA tool and lab proficiency (JTAG/debug, scopes/analyzers, protocol tools as applicable)
• Demonstrated collaboration with DV, IP/integration (IPSS or equivalent), and customer-facing teams
• Clear technical writing for plans, bugs, and status
