Job Title : Post-Silicon Validation Engineer

Location : Bangalore / Bhopal

Experience Required : 5+ Years

Job Summary :

We are hiring a Post-Silicon Validation Engineer to validate and characterize silicon behavior against design expectations. You will be responsible for debugging real silicon, developing test plans and infrastructure, analyzing data, and ensuring the quality and reliability of complex SoC and IP components in actual hardware.

Key Responsibilities :

  • Develop and execute post-silicon test plans for validating SoC or IP functionality.
  • Bring-up new silicon in lab and run system-level validation tests.
  • Debug hardware issues across digital / analog / mixed-signal blocks, collaborating with design and verification teams.
  • Automate validation and data collection using scripting languages.
  • Use lab equipment like oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, JTAG debuggers, pattern generators, etc.
  • Perform functional, performance, power, and interoperability testing.
  • Log and track bugs, support root cause analysis, and validate fixes in hardware revisions.
  • Provide detailed documentation and test reports to support silicon qualification.

Required Skills :

  • Strong understanding of digital and mixed-signal systems, SoC architecture, and standard interfaces (PCIe, I2C, SPI, USB, etc.).
  • Experience with lab instruments (oscilloscope, multimeter, logic analyzer, power supply, etc.).
  • Good hands-on skills in Python, Perl, or Shell scripting for test automation.
  • Familiarity with RTL and pre-silicon design flows for cross-debugging (bonus).
  • Understanding of DFT / scan, MBIST, or JTAG debug protocols is a plus.
  • Experience with data analysis, performance benchmarking, and failure isolation.

    • Preferred Qualifications :

  • B.E. / B.Tech / M.E. / M.Tech in Electronics, Electrical, or VLSI Design.
  • Exposure to validation of IP blocks like SERDES, PHYs, PLLs, ADCs, or CPU subsystems.
  • Experience in low power or high-speed IO validation is a bonus.
  • Knowledge of post-silicon debug tools such as Lauterbach, Trace32, ARM DAP, etc.
  • Excellent problem-solving, communication, and cross-functional collaboration skills.
