Job Description:

We are seeking a hands-on Silicon Validation Engineer to lead the bring-up and validation of high-speed analog I/O and PHY designs, including transmitters, receivers, clocking circuits, and voltage regulators for DDR, LPDDR, and MIPI interfaces.

Key Responsibilities

  • Own end-to-end high-speed I/O and PHY validation across multiple silicon programs.

  • Develop scalable validation frameworks and custom FPGA test content.

  • Execute post-silicon bring-up, electrical characterization and debug, driving cross-functional issue resolution.

  • Influence board design on high-speed channel implementation, stack-up, routing, and I/O termination.

  • Collaborate with firmware teams to develop test algorithms and validate calibration flows.

  • Partner with circuit design teams to review circuit architectures and drive design improvements based on silicon results.

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, or a related discipline.

  • Handson expertise with validating highspeed interfaces and PHYs such as DDR, LPDDR and MIPI.

  • Strong understanding of highspeed signal integrity, power integrity, timing, analog/mixedsignal behaviors and electrical measurement methodologies.

  • Proficiency with lab equipment, including oscilloscopes, BERTs, protocol analyzers, logic analyzers, and pattern generators.

  • Experience in post-silicon debug and issue resolution across silicon, package, board, firmware, and software domains.

  • Proficiency in scripting or programming for validation automation and data analysis, with experience using Quartus for FPGA validation enablement and debug.
