Job Description

As a member of the High-Speed System Design and Application engineering team in Intel’s Programmable Solutions Group, you will be responsible to ensure the best SERDES performance and the testability of the integrated circuits from the component architecting stage to production ramp stage. The role provides exciting challenges of creating and implementing test/validation methodologies using the latest design-for-test (DFT)/BIST capabilities in different areas including SOC/Platform/System Test as well as automated test equipment.

Structured ASIC team:

This is a structured ASIC team under Intel’s Programmable Solutions Group targeting 5G, cloud computing and high-end consumer application space. Intel® eASIC™ devices are structured ASICs, an intermediary technology between FPGAs and standard-cell ASICs bridging the gap between FPGA and Custom ASIC.

Structured ASIC team in Intel’s PSG group is the strategic acquisition of eASIC (the de facto leader in structured ASICs). Due to the proven success with our current and previous products (eASIC-N5X and eASIC-N3XS), we are building out our team to support the growth of new product families and rapidly expanding customer base. This success is an outcome of a close-knit integration of technologists across architecture, design and verification/validation, and deep customer engagement.

Responsibilities

• Provide hands-on applications leadership to internal and external customer programs pre and post silicon. Drive a new SERDES IP bring up, software tools development, debug to root cause and provide resolution.
• Develop collateral such as application note and device handbook/datasheet. 
• Define test methodology for high-speed SERDES (PMA & PCS), I/O, PLL, core logic block and influence the test chip design implementation and characterization/evaluation board design.
• Work on improving validation/debug infrastructure including: Equipment automation, scripting.
• Customer issue debug support.
• Functional test vector generation and debugging.
