Job Description:

This role focuses on validating end‑to‑end system behavior, ensuring that multiple SoC subsystems interact correctly under real customer and system‑level use cases.

Job Responsibility:

  • Own SoC‑level post‑silicon validation, focusing on interaction between multiple subsystems rather than isolated IP testing
  • Validate end‑to‑end system flows involving CPU cores, on‑chip memories, NoC/interconnect, IOs, power management, and firmware
  • Ensure correct behavior across boot, runtime, stress, error, and recovery scenarios at the SoC level
  • Develop validation test cases based on customer use cases (boot flows, IO usage, stress, concurrency, power transitions) into executable validation plans
  • Debug & root cause analysis: Perform deep SoC‑level debug to isolate failures across hardware, firmware, and system software boundaries
  • Lab execution & characterization: Use engineering lab equipment (oscilloscopes, protocol analyzers, signal generators, etc.) to validate and debug functional behavior
  • Documentation & reporting: Produce clear test plans, execution reports, failure analysis summaries, and status updates
  • track bugs/issues to closure

Requirements:

  • 12+ years of experience in pre‑silicon and/or post‑silicon SoC validation, with strong ownership in post‑silicon execution
  • Strong understanding of SoC architecture and subsystem interactions
  • Experience validating system‑level use cases and customer‑driven scenarios
  • Familiarity with debug tools, system logs, traces, and lab‑based validation setups
  • Strong understanding of SoC boot flows, firmware, and HW/SW interaction
  • Lab proficiency: Extensive experience using lab equipment such as oscilloscopes, protocol analyzers, signal generators, etc.

Nice to have:

  • Experience with emulation platforms (Palladium, Protium, Zebu) for pre‑silicon or early validation
  • Exposure to NoC fabrics, power management, clock/reset architecture, and system controllers
  • Familiarity with system software stacks (bootloader, Linux, RTOS) and their interaction with silicon
  • Hands on experience using AI tools
