What are the responsibilities and job description for the IO Electrical Validation Engineer position at UANDWE, Inc.?
Job Description:
IO Electrical Validation engineers focus on either IO validation or MEMS validation etc. They need have experience in high-speed protocols like HDMI, Display Port, PCI2 Gen3 and above
Electrical validation of different IOs (PCIe, USB3, UFS, DP, HDMI, etc.) in different chips (GPU/SOC).
Requirements: -
Educational Qualification: -
B.E degree with Electrical/Electronic as major subjects
Work Experience: -
2 to 5 years of relevant work experience
Technical Skills: -
Required -
o Clarity on signal integrity concepts (e.g., insertion loss, reflections, cross talk, etc.
o Clarity on signal quality parameters (e.g., eye diagram, jitter, frequency ppm, duty cycle, etc.) and how to measure those parameters.
o Familiarity of working in lab environment and have strong knowledge of using different equipment like DSO, Multimeter, Power supplies. (e.g., idea about ESD, minimum oscilloscope/probe BW required for measurement, etc.)
o Knowledge to understand board design from schematics (*.pdf file) and layout (*.brd file - using Cadence Allegro tool) (e.g., should be able to understand signal/power topology from schematics, should be able to locate test points in PCB for signal of interest, etc.)
o Knowledge to assemble a x86 motherboard (e.g., connect SMPS, DRAM cards, PCIe AIC, display, other peripherals, etc. to x86 motherboard)
o Knowledge of board/chip bring-up flow (e.g., idea on list of items to verify before/after attaching chip to board like verifying No-Stuff components, impedance of voltage rails, etc.)
o Proficiency in Windows & Linux OS and in Microsoft Office tools (e.g., In Linux – navigate folders, edit text files, move/copy files, SSH, execute scripts, etc.)
o Familiarity with scripting languages like Python/Perl (e.g., idea about installing different python modules, execute python scripts, etc.)
Desirable -
o Knowledge and hands-on experience on high speed SERDES IO (like PCIe, USB3, UFS, Ethernet, etc.) validation (e.g., eye measurement, JTOL testing, etc.).
o Knowledge and hands-on experience of using equipment like BERT (Bit Error Ratio Tester), PCIe/USB3/UFS Logic Analyzer, etc.
o Knowledge and hands-on experience on Silicon PVT characterization. o Knowledge and hands-on experience on board bring-up and testing
