You make sure every shipped chip behaves correctly beyond the simulator, joining design-for-test, bring-up and what production teaches you back into the next design. Post-silicon is where incomplete evidence is the normal condition: you will have a handful of parts, a symptom that appears intermittently, and pressure to name a root cause. Handling that carefully, and being willing to say the evidence does not yet support a conclusion, is the skill.
Open for applications. Starts at: Custom silicon gate.
We are taking applications for this role now and building the pipeline for it. The stage above is when the work itself is expected to begin, which is something you deserve to know before you apply rather than after. It is context, not a gate.
Where
In the office together five days a week, in one of our garages, and remote-friendly around your family, arranged one person at a time. We hire across the United States 🇺🇸, India 🇮🇳 and the UAE 🇦🇪.
The work
Plan scan, memory self-test and manufacturing test coverage with design partners. Develop board-level bring-up and characterization across operating conditions. Correlate failures with design evidence, track yield and distinguish silicon defects from firmware or board problems.
The milestone
In your first 90 days after program activation, deliver a bring-up plan, test fixtures specification and a traceable failure-triage workflow.
Required
Nice to have
Evidence
Bring experience in DFT, post-silicon validation or product engineering. Show disciplined measurement, reproducible lab work and careful handling of incomplete evidence.
Evidence, not credentials. We are describing work you can point at, in whatever form it exists.
The exercise
Investigate a failure that appears only after warm restart at a particular voltage and describe how you would isolate its cause.
The package
Indicative pay ranges by market and level are on the compensation page. Plan numbers are confirmed in your offer letter.
Apply
One short form. A person reads every application and you hear back either way. You will get your own link to check where things stand, and you can withdraw or delete your application from it at any time, without an account.
