Senior Validation Engineer Post Silicon– Validation & Characterization

This position requires an experienced technical lead with a strong background in post silicon validation across multiple product iterations. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience with DDR5 buffer of silicon bring-up and validation including high-speed analog and mixed-signal characterization.

This position requires an experienced technical lead with a strong background in post silicon validation across multiple product iterations. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience of silicon bring-up and validation including high-speed analog and mixed-signal characterization. . The candidate should be comfortable leading bench-level validation and characterization activities driving debug efforts developing test methodologies and collaborating cross-functionally with design system and product engineering teams. 

Component Bench Validation and Characterization 

• Leverage bestknown test and measurement techniquesincluding deembedding highimpedance probing and noise compensationto address complex signalintegrity challenges as memory data rates continue to scale.  

• Support Design and Validation teams in the characterization of critical electrical and timing parameters for highspeed memory devices.  

• Collaborate closely with designers and crossfunctional partners to debug and optimize performance using exploratory openended test approaches that extend beyond strict specificationdriven measurements. 

Data Analysis and Reporting 

• Synthesize experimental results and systematically define subsequent validation and characterization experiments to fully isolate and understand complex issues.  

• Generate clear consistent and wellstructured reports tailored to a range of technical and nontechnical audiences ensuring actionable insights and alignment across teams.  

• Develop and validate innovative applications of LLM/AI techniques to analyze large-scale validation datasets generate effective visualizations and reduce overall cycle time to final reporting. 

Technical Communication 

• Effectively document test methodologies procedures and assumptions to ensure results are reproducible accurate and scalable across validation efforts.  

• Communicate complex technical concepts with an appropriate level of detail tailored to each stakeholder from deep technical audiences to broader crossfunctional teams.  

• Collaborate effectively with Validation Engineers across diverse geographic regions languages and technical backgrounds fostering alignment and knowledge sharing within global teams. 

Qualifications :

• Bachelors / Masters degree in Electrical Engineering Computer Engineering or a related field. 

• 5 years of hands-on experience in  high-speed Analog and Mixed-signal signal devices. 

• Strong understanding of signaling levels termination architectures and signal integrity tradeoffs in systems. 

• Expertise in using typical high speed interface test equipment (BERT Scope Compliance S/W). 

• Proficiency in scripting languages (e.g. Python) for test automation and analysis. 

• Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills. 

• Strong communication and interpersonal skills. 

• Preferred Qualifications: 

• Masters degree in Electrical Engineering  

• Experience with advanced signal integrity measurements and applications for Design correlation. 

• Strong understanding of memory interface architecture interface protocols standards and operation preferably DDR5.
