As a Validation/Hardware Engineer at Montage Technologies, you will play a crucial role in the engineering characterization and failure analysis of DDR memory, CXL, PCIe, and PMIC systems. This position is integral to ensuring the reliability, performance, and compatibility of our enterprise-class components and technologies. You will collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to develop and execute comprehensive validation plans, build necessary validation hardware, and implement automation processes to guarantee that our system solutions adhere to the highest quality standards. Your responsibilities will include developing innovative tools and methods for programming, training, and validating DDR, CXL, PCIe, and PMIC hardware. You will conduct engineering characterization, provide customer support, and perform failure analysis to understand the performance characteristics of these systems. This involves designing and executing experiments, analyzing the resulting data, and effectively presenting your findings to team members. In this role, you will also be responsible for testing and validating early silicon against industry specifications, analyzing the performance and behavior of security, DDR, CXL, PCIe, and PMIC hardware to ensure compliance with required specifications. You will investigate and resolve issues identified during testing, working closely with design and development teams to identify root causes of failures and implement effective solutions. Additionally, you will evaluate the performance of DDR, CXL, PCIe, and PMIC hardware by measuring data transfer rates, latency, power consumption, and other relevant parameters. Your analysis of performance data will help identify areas for improvement. You will conduct failure analysis of system hardware to understand the roots of bugs and develop methods for preventing future system debugging and margin or training failures. Maintaining detailed test plans, test reports, and documentation of validation procedures will be essential, as will documenting any issues encountered along with the steps taken to reproduce and resolve them. Cross-functional collaboration is key, as you will work with hardware and software teams to address and resolve validation and performance issues, ensuring product readiness for market release.
