Job Description:

We are looking for an ASIC Validation Engineer to help bridge the gap between custom mining silicon design and real-world operation. In this highly hands-on, lab-focused role, you'll work closely with ASIC designers and system engineers to debug issues, build test infrastructure, and generate the data needed to enable rapid design iteration and system-level development.

Job Responsibility:

  • Bring up new silicon on bench platforms, evaluation boards, and system hardware
  • Debug issues across ASIC, board, firmware, and system interactions
  • Develop bench tests, scripts, and tools to exercise silicon features and collect data
  • Build and maintain test setups (lab automation, instrumentation, fixtures, scripts)
  • Partner with ASIC designers to validate functionality and root-cause failures
  • Work with system engineers to ensure silicon performs correctly in target system environments, including mining systems
  • Generate and analyze data to support design decisions, characterization, and bring-up
  • Create lightweight, reusable test workflows and documentation for the broader team
  • Support early manufacturing efforts with practical validation and debug, as needed

Requirements:

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or related field
  • 4+ years of experience in silicon validation, hardware test, or related roles
  • Strong hands-on experience in a lab environment (bench bring-up, debugging, instrumentation)
  • Solid understanding of digital systems and basic analog concepts
  • Experience writing scripts or tools (Python preferred) for test and data analysis
  • Comfortable debugging issues that span multiple layers (ASIC ↔ board ↔ system)
  • Clear communication skills and ability to work closely with cross-functional teams

Nice to have:

  • Experience with ASIC or FPGA bring-up and validation
  • Familiarity with common interfaces (SPI, I2C, JTAG, UART, etc.)
  • Experience using lab equipment (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, power supplies, etc.)
  • Exposure to high-performance, power-dense systems (e.g., mining ASICs, accelerators, or similar)
  • Experience building test automation or internal tooling
  • Familiarity with data analysis and visualization
  • Experience working with early silicon / first bring-up environments
  • Exposure to manufacturing test or ATE
  • Experience working on systems with tight power, thermal, and performance constraints
What we offer:
  • Remote work
  • Medical insurance
  • Flexible time off
  • Retirement savings plans
  • Modern family planning
