Job Description:

Role summary

Support FPGA-based post-silicon validation: design bring-up, hardware testing (PVT and non-PVT),   regression , and   design/test automation . Build hands-on skill in lab HW, scripting, and RTL-aware debug under senior guidance.

Key responsibilities

Execute FPGA post-silicon validation plans: functional, feature,   regression , and stress
Support   design bring-up : power-on, clocks, reset, link-up, and basic feature checks
Run   PVT testing  (voltage / temperature / corner sweeps) and non-PVT HW tests
Execute and maintain   regression  suites (manual and automated); triage failures and re-run as needed
Develop and maintain   design/test automation  using   Python ,   Tcl , and   C  as needed
Read and use   RTL  for debug, signal tracing, and understanding expected behavior
Use FPGA tools and lab instruments for HW bring-up and failure isolation
File clear bugs with logs, setups, and repro steps
Work with design, DV, and related teams on triage and closure
Document procedures, automation, regression results, and status

oft skills

Methodical, lab-safe, eager to automate repetitive validation and regression work
Quick learners; owns assigned test, regression, and automation tasks

Qualifications:

Required qualifications

B.E. / B.Tech / M.S. in ECE, EE, Computer Engineering, or related
3–5 years in post-silicon validation, FPGA validation, HW test, or related
HW knowledge:  digital fundamentals, FPGA/SoC basics, lab bring-up comfort
Experience or coursework exposure to   test execution / regression  (lab or simulation)
Automation:  practical   Python  for test/lab automation and regression runs
Scripting / embedded:   Tcl  and   C  for tool flows, firmware-style, or board/test control
RTL:  ability to read Verilog/SystemVerilog (or VHDL) and relate failures to design behavior
Familiarity with FPGA flows (compile, program, basic on-chip debug)
Clear written communication for bugs and status
