Staff Design Evaluation Engineer
Core
Bench evaluation and validation of new SoC product developments, driving post-silicon phase from first-silicon bring-up through full PVT characterization.
Role type
Staff Design Evaluation Engineer
Builds
Bench hardware and software solutions for complex digital and mixed-signal SoCs
Domain
Semiconductor / Digital Business Unit
Deliverable
production ML models | product features | dashboards & analysis | research | client delivery | infrastructure | physical/clinical work
Required skills
high-speed digital validation of MCUs, DSPs, and NPUs; electrical compliance characterization; system validation of high-speed interfaces (DDR3, PCIe, CSI, USB, HDMI); characterization of precision analogue IPs (ADCs, DACs, voltage references); embedded toolchains (IAR, Keil); programming in Python, C, C#, VHDL/Verilog; bench instruments operation (oscilloscopes, Audio Precision, signal generators)
Preferred skills
DFT definition and development; system-level performance benchmarking for power and speed; automation of test scripts
Technologies
