About the job
Job Requirements Post-Silicon Validation Architect (Display Team) Role Overview The Post-Silicon Validation Architect defines the validation strategy, test plans, and automation frameworks to bring up and qualify next-generation display chips. This role bridges hardware design, FPGA prototyping, and production software to ensure the silicon meets all functional, performance, and reliability targets before mass production.
Key Responsibilities
- Architecture & Strategy : Define the post-silicon validation architecture, methodologies, and test strategies for display chipsets.
- Bring-up & Debug : Lead the bring-up of silicon, reference boards, and FPGA prototypes, isolating complex hardware and software defects.
- Test Development : Create comprehensive test plans covering display protocols, frame buffer management, pixel pipelines, and image processing algorithms.
- Automation : Design and scale automated test frameworks to interface with high-speed validation equipment.
- Cross-functional Collaboration : Partner with Design, Pre-Silicon Verification (SV/UVM), Emulation, and Firmware teams to root-cause chip bugs.
Required Technical Skills Display, Video, & Pixel Processing · DSI2 & MIPI : Deep knowledge of MIPI DSI-2 physical and protocol layers for high-speed mobile and automotive displays. · Pixel Formats & Formats : Mastery of raw pixel data formats, including PACKED YUV444 and RGB data streams. · Bit Depth & Color : Expertise in validating variable bit depths (e.g., 8-bit, 10-bit, 12-bit per channel) and their impact on color fidelity. [ 1 ] · Scaling & Processing : Strong understanding of image processing pipelines, specifically upscale and downscale filtering engines. · Display Technologies : Deep knowledge of display panels, display drivers , demura (mura correction) algorithms, and color management systems. Hardware Validation & Equipment · Introspect Technology : Hands-on experience using Introspect SV series systems (or similar MIPI protocol analyzers/exercisers) for protocol conformance and physical layer testing. · FPGA Prototyping & Emulation : Experience using FPGA platforms (Xilinx/AMD, Intel, or Zebu environments) for pre-silicon development and early post-silicon software alignment. · Lab Instrumentation : Mastery of high-speed oscilloscopes, multimeters, logic analyzers, and bit error rate testers (BERT). Silicon Characterization & Verification Methodologies · Bitstream Verification : Experience developing and executing bitstream verification methodologies to validate code compliance and pipeline robustness. · SV/UVM Understanding : Strong understanding of SystemVerilog and UVM (Universal Verification Methodology) to effectively bridge pre-silicon testbenches with post-silicon test plans. · PVT Testing : Experience characterizing silicon performance across Process, Voltage, and Temperature corners. · Frame Buffer : Expertise in validating memory interfaces, frame buffer bandwidth, display refresh rates, and power-saving modes. · Functionality : Full-stack functional validation of chip configuration, register maps, interrupts, and power management states. Software, OS, & Automation · Python Programming : Advanced Python programming skills for building, scaling, and maintaining automated test scripts, with tools and frameworks. · Low-Level Software : Experience writing and debugging firmware in baremetal environments and RTOS platforms. · OS Ecosystems : Familiarity with display subsystem pipelines within host operating systems, specifically Android (SurfaceFlinger/HWC) and Linux (DRM/KMS drivers). · Excellent problem-solving abilities and attention to details · Good software debugging skills using tools like gdb, Valgrind etc. · Experience in Continuous Integration tools like SVN, Git, Jira etc. Soft Skills: · Strong communication skills for clearly communicating ideas and concepts to team/customer
Qualifications
- Education : Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
- Experience : 8+ years of experience in post-silicon validation, specifically within display, multimedia, or high-speed SoC environments.
