Description

Description

You will be joining a team of engineers who is responsible for validating Apple SoCs with system workloads. - In this role, you will be working closely with functional test writers to understand high level architectures of each IP blocks within Apple SoCs and define applicable validation plans. You will then execute such system tests, through scripts/automation framework, on large volume of prototype SoCs across Process, Voltage and Temperature (PVT) corners. - Looking for any potential issues, as well as characterizing the functional voltage (lvcc) of SoCs under such workloads. When issue occurs, you will be the first line of debugger to triage issues and isolate/bucketize failures. - Work with domain experts to define DoEs, come up with root cause theories, and test possible workarounds. In addition, you will characterize functional voltages (lvcc) of SoCs under system workloads, analyze data across voltage domains, provide feedbacks to PE (product engineers) to define product operation voltages as well as recommend contents to testing/screening environment. - Collaborate with downstream testing teams (SoC test teams, system test teams, etc) to facilitate resolving issues happening in their environment.

Minimum Qualifications

• A minimum of a bachelor's degree and a minimum of 10 years of relevant industry experience in silicon validation software engineering or related field

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with SoC bring up.
• Experience with System debug.
• Computer architectures (cache, memory hierarchy, data pipelines) and logic design.
• Experience with script language such as Python, Perl, or Tcl.
