Define validation plans and develop test cases for MCU/MPU subsystems covering CPU, memory, peripherals, and interconnects.
Lead post-silicon and support pre-silicon validation efforts including debugging hardware-software issues using tools like JTAG, logic analyzers, and oscilloscopes.
Develop test suites and automation frameworks using C/C++, Python, and scripting for regression and validation, and collaborate cross-functionally with RTL design, verification, and firmware teams.
Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical, Electronics, or Computer Engineering or related field.
12+ years of experience in semiconductor validation (analog), product engineering, or silicon debug.
Strong hands-on experience with MCU architectures, embedded systems, lab bring-up, and silicon debug tools (JTAG, logic analyzers, oscilloscopes).
Proven ability to lead large, distributed engineering teams.
Experienced in cross-functional collaboration with RTL design, verification, and firmware teams to address hardware-software integration challenges.
Capable of defining and executing comprehensive validation strategies including test development and automation for complex silicon platforms.
Experienced in low-level hardware and firmware debugging across CPU cores (ARM/RISC-V), memory subsystems, and various peripherals.
