Skills Required

• Experience in Post Silicon Electrical Validation of server processors (if server processor is too specific, you can remove server)

• High speed communication principles, circuits and signal integrity principles

• Computer architecture knowledge

• DRAM architecture (up to (DDR5), PCIe (Gen 5) architecture knowledge

• Die Interconnect Buses and other GPIO (I2C, SPI, I3C, HSuART etc)

• SW skill for test plan and test automation– Python knowledge is a plus

• Statistical principles for data analysis

• System level test with margin analysis experience is a plus.

Job Description:

• Silicon validation experience, preferably in the area of SERDES, DDR or high-speed interface design.

• Experience to validate PCIe, CXL, DDRx, LPDDR controller/chips for leading edge protocols and advanced nodes.

• Understanding of JEDEC, PCIe Standard

• Experience in PCIe TX/RX Validation

• Knowledge on MRC algorithm and tuning for DDR memories

• Bring up, characterization and validation of Silicon.

• Experience in system marginality validation

• Work with design team to debug problems and performance issues. Report results to design teams.

• Support customer silicon bring up and post silicon queries of IP and help to debug customer issues with same. Debug issues with SOC IP and boards as needed.

• Execute test requests from design team or customers to measure specific parameters or root cause issues.

• Recommend and pursue improvements to our test plan and environment to ensure the highest quality IP is produced and minimize any silicon issues

• Good understanding of lab equipment and measurement techniques for high-speed interfaces. High speed scopes, probes, spectrum analyzers, BERTs.
