About the role
This role involves defining requirements, developing emulation platforms based on the SoC RTL, and validating product functionality through hardware, software, and system-level testing of power-conversion ICs.
What you'll do
- Port SoC RTL to FPGA, including placement, timing closure, and emulation bring-up.
- Develop Verilog models to emulate analog functions on FPGA.
- Perform FPGA verification, system integration, and lab testing.
- Support ongoing FPGA and board-level validation activities.
- Use Python and C/C++ for simulation and data analysis.
- Conduct pre-silicon verification using simulation tools and FPGA platforms.
What you'll need
- Bachelor’s in Electronic or Electrical/Computer Engineering with 8+ years relevant experience.
- Expertise in FPGA design flow (verification, synthesis, partitioning, P&R, timing closure).
- Hands-on experience with lab instruments (oscilloscope, signal/spectrum analyzers, logic analyzers, electronic loads).
- Knowledge of interface and communication protocols (SPI, I2C).
- Ability to diagnose and resolve silicon, board, and software-related issues.
Nice to have
- Knowledge of power-conversion circuits and mixed-signal blocks (ADC, DAC, PLL, amplifiers).
- Familiarity with I2C, SPI, I2S and related control/communication interfaces.
- Experience with Arm Development Studio (Cortex-A9).
- Familiarity with Jama, Jira, and Confluence.

How we counted: 476 open Post-Silicon Validation (Silicon Validation) roles from 68 employers tracked in the SemiconductorJobs index, counted 13 Nov 2026. Specialty figures count only roles carrying this exact specialty label, so an employer's related work in neighbouring specialties is not included there, and is counted in the wider Silicon Validation & Test family row. Days are counted from when our index first saw each posting, not from the employer's original posting date.
