Job Description:

Role summary
Support FPGA-based post-silicon validation: design bring-up, hardware testing (PVT and non-PVT), regression, and design/test automation. Build hands-on skill in lab HW, scripting, and RTL-aware debug under senior guidance.
Key responsibilities
  • Execute FPGA post-silicon validation plans: functional, feature, regression, and stress
  • Support design bring-up: power-on, clocks, reset, link-up, and basic feature checks
  • Run PVT testing (voltage / temperature / corner sweeps) and non-PVT HW tests
  • Execute and maintain regression suites (manual and automated); triage failures and re-run as needed
  • Develop and maintain design/test automation using Python, Tcl, and C as needed
  • Read and use RTL for debug, signal tracing, and understanding expected behavior
  • Use FPGA tools and lab instruments for HW bring-up and failure isolation
  • File clear bugs with logs, setups, and repro steps
  • Work with design, DV, and related teams on triage and closure
  • Document procedures, automation, regression results, and status
    oft skills
    • Methodical, lab-safe, eager to automate repetitive validation and regression work
    • Quick learners; owns assigned test, regression, and automation tasks

    Qualifications:

    Required qualifications

    • HW knowledge: digital fundamentals, FPGA/SoC basics, lab bring-up comfort
    • Experience or coursework exposure to test execution / regression (lab or simulation)
    • Automation: practical Python for test/lab automation and regression runs
    • Scripting / embedded: Tcl and C for tool flows, firmware-style, or board/test control
    • RTL: ability to read Verilog/SystemVerilog (or VHDL) and relate failures to design behavior
    • Familiarity with FPGA flows (compile, program, basic on-chip debug)
    • Clear written communication for bugs and status
