TL;DR · Analog Mixed-Signal Validation System Lead

The Analog Mixed-Signal Validation System Lead heads the development and execution of validation infrastructure for Analog Mixed-Signal IPs. This role involves leading hardware and software infrastructure teams to design and implement modular hardware modules, standardized validation frameworks, and interfaces. The lead will oversee the deployment of test systems for bench and system validations, architecting data management structures and creating visualization tools for data exploration. Key responsibilities include launching data analytics frameworks, identifying performance indicators, and transitioning pre-silicon verification flows to post-silicon. Required skills include experience with lab equipment like oscilloscopes and signal analyzers, alongside programming in Python, C/C++, MATLAB, LabVIEW, and JMP. The role also utilizes Jupyter, Pandas, and Tableau to solve complex semiconductor technology and IC design architecture validation problems.

What you'll do

  • Oversee the design, deployment, and management of hardware and software test systems for AMS IP validation.
  • Develop standardized validation frameworks and modular interfaces to improve test execution efficiency.
  • Architect and maintain validation data management structures for automated data extraction and analysis.
  • Create and maintain custom visualization tools for effective data exploration and IP validation.
  • Launch a data analytics framework to identify and track key performance indicators across labs.
  • Develop software interfaces to transition pre-silicon verification flows seamlessly to post-silicon environments.
  • Implement best practices for quality assurance on all hardware and software test systems.

What we're looking for

  • Master’s degree or equivalent in EE/CS is required.
  • 8+ years of industry experience is required.
  • 8+ years of experience leading, managing, and developing validation hardware and software systems for AMS or SOC IPs (preferred).
  • Deep understanding of HW and SW needs for validating AMS IPs from on-chip to in-system (preferred).
  • Hands-on experience with lab equipment such as oscilloscopes, signal analyzers, and BERT (preferred).
  • Strong programming and scripting skills in Python, C/C++, MATLAB, LabVIEW, or JMP for automation and data analysis (preferred).
  • Knowledge of data processing, visualization, and analysis tools like Jupyter, Pandas, and Tableau (preferred).
  • Knowledge of semiconductor technologies, IC design architectures, and industry EDA tools (preferred).
