As a Electrical Validation Engineer, you will be part of Validation team that is exploring new hardware designs to improve our devices. In this role, you will create, define and develop electrical validation environment and test suites. You will also be responsible for the development of methodologies, execution of validation plans, debug of failures and follow up to closure.
Key job responsibilities
You will work closely with multi-disciplinary groups including Board Design, System Architects, IP developers, and Software Engineering, to verify and deliver complex, high volume SoCs that enable development of world-class hardware devices. In this role, you will:
• Perform electrical compliance test specifications / compliance test suite for various interfaces and conduct lab measurements
• Work on high-speed serial I/O interfaces like (LP)DDR4/5, USB, CSI/DSI, HDMI, PCIe interfaces etc.
• Perform documentation and communicate data across large number of tests and measurement results
• Drive initiatives to improve process, procedures, and quality of High Speed Characterization at SOC & Product level.
• Work on schematic and PCB physical design tools to interpret the design and locate physical probe points.
• Bachelor’s degree or higher in EE, ECE, or CS
• High speed serial interface analog building blocks, protocol, specifications and test methods
• Writing Python/TCL/PERL code to automate test procedures
• Good software architecture principles and development practices
• PCB layout best practices
• MS/ME in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field
• Proficiency in handling High Bandwidth oscilloscopes, BERT, logic analyzers and understanding of probing techniques
• Understanding of Power & signal integrity concepts such as differential impedance, jitter, insertion loss, return loss, termination, etc.
• Scripting experience in any programming language (C++, Python, PERL, MATLAB) to develop automation scripts is a plus.
• Experience in Analog IP Characterization (SerDes, PLL, DDR) is desirable.
• Familiarity with Transmitter and Receiver design blocks. Understanding of equalization techniques (CTLE/DFE).
• Good understanding of High-Speed Analog/Digital Circuits, VLSI, semiconductor physics
