About the Role
We are looking for an FPGA Silicon Validation Engineer to validate and characterize cutting-edge FPGA devices and platforms. In this role, you will work closely with architecture, design, verification, firmware, software, and product engineering teams to drive silicon bring-up, debug complex system issues, and ensure successful product deployment from first silicon through production release.
The ideal candidate combines strong digital design knowledge with hands-on hardware debugging skills and a passion for solving complex system-level challenges. The role is also open to recent grads, and recent-graduates are encouraged to apply (compensation and scope will adjust accordingly).
Key ResponsibilitiesDevelop and execute silicon validation plans for FPGA devices and associated IP subsystems.
Perform first silicon bring-up, feature validation, characterization, and production readiness testing.
Design, develop, and maintain validation environments, automated test frameworks, and validation infrastructure.
Debug silicon, FPGA fabric, embedded processor, firmware, and platform-level issues using laboratory equipment and software tools.
Collaborate with design, verification, architecture, firmware, software, and product engineering teams to root-cause and resolve issues.
Analyze failures and identify hardware, firmware, RTL, or system-level root causes.
Drive issue resolution through detailed debug, data collection, and technical reporting.
Develop customer-focused validation scenarios that reflect real-world deployments and use cases.
Support product qualification, customer enablement, and post-silicon debug activities.
Salary Range
The pay range below is for Bay Area California only. Actual salary may vary based ona number offactors including job location, job-related knowledge, skills, experiences,trainings, etc. We also offer incentive opportunities that reward employees based on individual and company performance.
