Post-Silicon Validation Engineer

Department: Chips & Silicon

Location: Palo Alto Office

Employment Type: FullTime

About Voltai

Voltai is developing world models, and agents to learn, evaluate, plan, experiment, and interact with the physical world. We are starting out with understanding and building hardware; electronics systems and semiconductors where AI can design and create beyond human cognitive limits.

About the Team

Backed by Silicon Valley’s top investors, Stanford University, and CEOs/Presidents of Google, AMD, Broadcom, Marvell, etc. We are a team of previous Stanford professors, SAIL researchers, Olympiad medalists (IPhO, IOI, etc.), the inventors of IC3 and the Murphi verification system, CTOs of Synopsys & GlobalFoundries, Head of Sales & CRO of Cadence, former US Secretary of Defense, National Security Advisor, and Senior Foreign-Policy Advisor to four US presidents.

About this Role

You'll make sure first silicon works. You'll own bring-up and validation on real silicon programs with leading semiconductor companies while helping Voltai's AI learn from what happens after tapeout.

What You’ll Do

  • Plan and execute post-silicon bring-up and validation for SoCs and IP.

  • Develop validation content, test plans, and automated test infrastructure.

  • Debug silicon failures across logic, timing, power, and system interactions.

  • Correlate silicon results with pre-silicon simulation, emulation, and formal results.

  • Work with design, DFT, and product engineering teams to drive root cause and fixes.

  • Capture silicon learnings that feed back into Voltai's models and verification flows.

What We’re Looking For

  • 5+ years of post-silicon validation or bring-up experience.

  • Hands-on lab experience with oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, JTAG, and debug tools.

  • Strong Python and C/C++ for test automation.

  • Experience with high-speed interfaces (PCIe, DDR, Ethernet, or similar).

  • Systematic debug skills across hardware and software.

Bonus Points

  • Experience with silicon characterization and yield.

  • Background in pre-silicon verification.

  • Interest in AI-assisted design tools.
