The Sr Memory PHY Enablement role involves performing memory PHY post-silicon validation with a specific focus on first silicon bring-up within demanding product schedules. The engineer will develop and execute comprehensive test plans, analyze validation results, and debug issues to ensure stability and robustness. Key responsibilities include providing systems engineering and post-silicon support for HBM, DDR, and LPDDR memory interface IP, as well as characterizing memory PHY across PVT conditions to improve power and performance. The position requires proficiency in Python scripting, Linux environments, and firmware debugging. Candidates must utilize laboratory equipment such as oscilloscopes, signal generators, BERT, and logic analyzers. This role addresses the technical challenge of validating memory interface IP functionality and identifying root causes during the transition from first silicon to production.
Provide systems engineering and post-silicon support for HBM/DDR/LPDDR memory interface IP.
Support the bring-up of new products from first silicon in the lab through initial production.
Triage silicon validation observations and collaborate with cross-functional teams to identify and resolve root causes.
Provide post-silicon expertise on silicon design, process, and integration flows for memory interface IP.
Develop comprehensive test plans and run them in emulation environments to ensure robustness.
Characterize memory PHY across PVT to validate functionality and improve power and performance.
What we're looking for
Bachelor’s or master’s degree in computer engineering, Electrical Engineering, a related technical discipline, or equivalent applicable technical experience.
Strong knowledge of modern, complex processor architecture, digital design, and validation.
Ability to provide systems engineering and post-silicon support for HBM/DDR/LPDDR memory interface IP.
Experience supporting product bring-up from first silicon in the lab through initial production.
Ability to triage silicon validation observations and collaborate with ATE, Platform, Firmware, and Characterization teams.
Ability to develop comprehensive test plans and run them in emulation environments.
Memory PHY validation experience, including familiarity with firmware and memory IP (preferred).
Programming or scripting experience with Python, firmware debugging, and Linux environments (preferred).
