- Strong background in automation-first validation frameworks development (Python, C++ or similar) and use of AI frameworks specific to SoC validation.
- Demonstrated ability to institutionalize best practices, lead culture change towards risk ownership and evidence-based closure, with exposure to ISO 26262 / ASIL-D standards and emulation/FPGA-based shift-left validation.
