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
QUALIFICATIONS
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.
Preferred Qualifications
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

Role Overview
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.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
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.
