Lead IC – Driver Development & High-Speed Transceiver Test Automation
Verification, Validation & Test
STM32-based embedded driver development and PAM4 transceiver test automation.
About the role
This role leads a team of driver developers, embedded firmware engineers, and test automation engineers while providing direct hands-on technical contributions. The position focuses on embedded driver development, test automation architecture, DSP-based test workflows, and automated test solutions for high-speed transceiver modules.
What you'll do
- Lead and mentor a team of driver developers, embedded firmware engineers, and test automation engineers.
- Design and develop embedded firmware and low-level software drivers for STM32-based and custom test platforms using C, C++, C#, and VB.NET.
- Develop automated test solutions for high-speed transceiver modules, including waveform analysis, DSP-driven measurements, and ML-enabled optimization.
- Support contract manufacturers with test implementation, system bring-up, debugging, troubleshooting, and sustaining support.
- Perform statistical analysis, including SPC, GR&R, and correlation studies, to qualify automated testers and validate system performance.
- Work hands-on with laboratory equipment, including oscilloscopes, DMMs, logic analyzers, and high-speed signal analyzers.
What you'll need
- BS or MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related discipline.
- 5+ years of experience in embedded systems, driver development, or test automation, with at least 3–5 years in a leadership, technical management, or team-lead capacity.
- Experience developing firmware and low-level drivers in C, C++, C#, and VB.NET.
- Understanding of high-speed digital signaling, transceiver testing (NRZ, PAM4), and DSP concepts.
- Experience building and deploying automation frameworks and factory-level test systems.
- Proficiency in instrument communication protocols, including GPIB, SCPI, I²C, and UART.
Skills: test automation, high-speed transceiver, PAM4, firmware, driver development
