Job Description:
Role summary
Support FPGA-based post-silicon validation: design bring-up, hardware testing (PVT and non-PVT), regression, and design/test automation. Build hands-on skill in lab HW, scripting, and RTL-aware debug under senior guidance.
Key responsibilities
- Execute FPGA post-silicon validation plans: functional, feature, regression, and stress
- Support design bring-up: power-on, clocks, reset, link-up, and basic feature checks
- Run PVT testing (voltage / temperature / corner sweeps) and non-PVT HW tests
- Execute and maintain regression suites (manual and automated); triage failures and re-run as needed
- Develop and maintain design/test automation using Python, Tcl, and C as needed
- Read and use RTL for debug, signal tracing, and understanding expected behavior
- Use FPGA tools and lab instruments for HW bring-up and failure isolation
- File clear bugs with logs, setups, and repro steps
- Work with design, DV, and related teams on triage and closure
- Document procedures, automation, regression results, and status
oft skills
- Methodical, lab-safe, eager to automate repetitive validation and regression work
- Quick learners; owns assigned test, regression, and automation tasks
Qualifications:
Required qualifications
- B.E. / B.Tech / M.S. in ECE, EE, Computer Engineering, or related
- 3–5 years in post-silicon validation, FPGA validation, HW test, or related
- HW knowledge: digital fundamentals, FPGA/SoC basics, lab bring-up comfort
- Experience or coursework exposure to test execution / regression (lab or simulation)
- Automation: practical Python for test/lab automation and regression runs
- Scripting / embedded: Tcl and C for tool flows, firmware-style, or board/test control
- RTL: ability to read Verilog/SystemVerilog (or VHDL) and relate failures to design behavior
- Familiarity with FPGA flows (compile, program, basic on-chip debug)
- Clear written communication for bugs and status
