Post-Silicon Validation Engineer

Santa ClaraOn-siteFull-time

AI Summary

Lead silicon bring-up and post-silicon validation for AI accelerator chiplets; develops automated test frameworks and embedded firmware to stress high-speed interfaces, collaborating across hardware, software, validation, and operations teams.

About this role

Role Overview

  • Lead silicon bring-up, post-silicon validation, and deep debug of next-generation AI accelerator chiplets, including validation of high-speed interfaces such as PCIe Gen5, LPDDR5, and die-to-die interconnects.

  • Define and execute comprehensive validation and bring-up strategies, building automated, self-checking test frameworks with firmware- and kernel-level instrumentation and logging.

  • Develop embedded firmware and host-side test software to stress, validate, and characterize high-speed interfaces across multiple system configurations.

  • Work hands-on in the lab, partnering with the team to set up and utilize advanced debug and test equipment to support efficient validation and issue resolution.

  • Collaborate closely with hardware, software, validation, test, and operations teams, including support for ATE and complex HW/SW debug efforts.

Qualifications

  • BS/MS in Electrical or Computer Engineering with 15+ years of experience working on high-performance SoCs.

  • Proven experience in system and AI accelerator bring-up and post-silicon debug.

  • 5+ years of embedded software, firmware, or RTOS development experience.

  • Strong familiarity with high-speed serial protocols (PCIe Gen3/4/5) and/or high-speed memory technologies (LPDDR3/4/5 or similar I/O standards).

  • Excellent debugging, communication, and cross-functional collaboration skills, with the ability to work effectively across diverse engineering teams.
