Silicon Validation Engineer
Join a hardware team developing custom silicon for consumer products. Validate complex hardware features from emulation through silicon bring-up, and work with architects and designers to resolve issues and improve validation coverage. Preferred work locations are Tel Aviv or Haifa, Israel.
Responsibilities
- Analyze the architecture and microarchitecture of complex hardware units and features.
- Create post-silicon validation test plans based on design specifications.
- Write, run, and debug validation tests on pre-silicon emulation platforms and silicon.
- Lead silicon bring-up and troubleshooting; identify hardware and software root causes.
- Collaborate with architects, designers, and other teams to resolve bugs and verify functionality.
- Improve validation infrastructure and methodologies to increase efficiency and coverage.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, computer science, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
- At least 4 years of experience writing functional silicon-validation tests in C, C++, Python, or similar languages.
- At least 4 years of experience with silicon bring-up, functional validation, characterization, and qualification.
- At least 4 years of experience in pre-silicon or post-silicon validation.
Nice to have
- Master’s degree or PhD in electrical engineering, computer engineering, or computer science, preferably focused on computer architecture.
- Experience in hardware and silicon validation.
