Job Description
The Role and Impact
As an Electrical Validation Engineer, you will play a pivotal role in ensuring the reliability and performance of Intel's next-generation silicon products. You will actively validate circuit analog performance, analyze electrical signal integrity compliance, and ensure system-level margins for stable operation. This hands-on role directly contributes to the development of high-quality products that delight customers while meeting production and industry standards.
Business Group
The Electrical Validation team is part of Intel Corporation, supporting Intel's commitment to delivering innovative and high-performing silicon solutions. This team works on validating and debugging integrated products, leveraging state-of-the-art laboratory equipment to ensure product quality and reliability. Their focus on multidisciplinary research and collaboration plays a vital role in supporting Intel's broader mission to deliver cutting-edge technology.
Key Responsibilities
•Define electrical validation strategies for IO interfaces to achieve optimized analog performance and meet product production goals.
•Validate circuit analog performance, electrical signal integrity compliance to industry-standard specifications, and system-level margins for stable operation.
•Conduct multidisciplinary research in the design, testing, and validation of IO and mixed-signal architectures, including datacom applications, custom Intel interfaces, and RF systems.
•Develop procedures, analyses, and designs for validation infrastructure and systems margin validation.
•Perform root cause analysis and resolve functional and triage failures for electrical issues.
•Test interactions between various electrical design features using validation infrastructure.
•Apply knowledge of Design for Testability (DFT) and Design for Manufacturability (DFM) to collaborate with architecture, design, and pre-silicon validation teams.
•Prepare validation specifications, evaluate intellectual property (IP), and generate comprehensive test reports.
•Analyze internal and external customer returns to enhance yields and drive test escape closure.
