Job Title: Validation EngineerJob DescriptionThis role focuses on silicon validation, testing, and debugging for complex CPU/SoC platforms. The Validation Engineer will verify functional and electrical behavior of interfaces and subsystems, collaborate closely with hardware and firmware teams, and use industry-standard tools and scripting languages to ensure robust system-level performance and reliability in a lab environment.

Responsibilities

Perform silicon validation, testing, and debugging activities for CPU/SoC platforms and related subsystems.
Validate functional behavior of PCIe, CXL, endpoints such as network and storage devices, power management, and BIOS/firmware features.
Conduct electrical validation of input/output interfaces and related signals using appropriate lab equipment.
Apply computer architecture and CPU/SoC validation principles to verify SoC subsystems, system-level, and platform-level functionality.
Develop and maintain scripts and software in Python, C, and C++ to automate validation tasks, data collection, and analysis.
Understand and work with system-level software and firmware to support debug, validation, and feature enablement.
Use hardware and software debug tools such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, JTAG, and BERT to identify, isolate, and resolve issues.
Review and interpret board-level schematics to support debug activities and validate hardware implementations.
Collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams to communicate findings, propose solutions, and drive issues to closure.
Document validation plans, test cases, results, and root-cause analyses in a clear and organized manner.
Participate in technical interviews and discussions related to prior experience as part of the hard skills assessment process.
Demonstrate strong attention to detail and analytical thinking when investigating complex validation and system-level problems.

Essential Skills

Bachelors or masters degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, or a related field.
At least 3 years of experience in silicon validation, testing, or debugging.
Demonstrated hands-on engineering-level experience in silicon validation (beyond technician-level responsibilities).
Validation experience with functional interfaces and features such as PCIe, CXL, endpoints (network and storage), power management, and BIOS/firmware development and debug.
Experience with electrical validation of input/output interfaces.
Applied understanding of computer architecture and CPU/SoC validation principles, including SoC subsystem, system-level, and platform-level functionality.
Ability to write scripts and software using industry-standard languages such as Python and C/C++.
Understanding of system-level software and firmware and how they interact with hardware platforms.
Proficiency with hardware and software debug tools, including oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, JTAG, and BERT.
Proficient in scripting and programming languages such as Python, C, and C++.
Ability to read and understand board-level schematics to support validation and debug.
Strong problem-solving and analytical skills, with the ability to troubleshoot complex technical issues.
Clear and effective communication skills for collaborating with engineering teams and documenting findings.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

Some knowledge of Verilog and digital design concepts.
Experience with validation protocols related to PCIe, CXL, BIOS, and other silicon interfaces.
Attention to detail in test execution, documentation, and issue tracking.
Ability to participate in a hard skills assessment process that may include 12 rounds focused on behavioral questions and technical discussions based on prior experience.
Willingness and ability to complete a full tenure period as required by the engagement.
