- Contribute to future silicon development with learnings and optimizations from silicon based debug activities
- Regularly audit silicon inventory and ensure security requirements are complied with
Qualifications
Here’s what you need:
- Able to work in a lab setting taking all requisite precautions
- Experience with silicon bring-up and debug of chips of at least the complexity of ARM CPUs
- Experience with lab equipment for high speed silicon chips
- Hands on experience using a JTAG debugger to enable deeper testing of silicon - e.g. T32 Lauterbach
- Lab skills like soldering, working knowledge of lab equipment, calibration of lab equipment, license requirements and inventory management
- API based programming to automate measurements and manage test suites is preferred.
WHAT´S IN IT FOR YOU
- Competitive benefits, including a fair and balanced parental leave policy.
- Fantastic opportunities to develop your career across industries with local and global clients.
