What You Can Expect

• Lead protocol characterization, develop characterization boards, and manage validation activities. Act as liaison between AE and validation teams, supporting local lab activities.
• Bring strong verification and validation knowledge, and collaborate with R&D, Field Engineering, and Product Marketing. Assist in design tool benchmarking and design flow maintenance.
• Create and drive validation plans for programs, mentor validation engineers, and ensure goal achievement.
• Validate Analog and DSP SerDes blocks (PLL, ADC/DAC, equalizers, drivers) and define methodologies for high-speed serial I/O measurements.
• Develop protocol-specific use models and conduct compliance tests. Create firmware functions for PHY design and evaluate characterization boards.
• Support development teams during bring-up, providing application engineering support to customers and FAEs.
• Answer customer questions, debug issues, create demo kits, and author application materials (GUIs, notes, guides).
• Lead validation plan development, review test plans, and prepare internal test result documents.
• Work with Design, Firmware, and Validation teams to resolve bugs and guide validation professionals.
