Pre-Silicon SoC Validation - Technical Lead

Job Details: Job Description: Role Summary: Seeking an experienced SoC Validation Engineer to define, drive, and execute validation strategies across the full silicon lifecycle, from architecture definition and pre-silicon planning through silicon power-on, post-silicon debug, stepping readiness, and PRQ quality convergence. The role requires deep expertise in complex SoC validation, security validation, coherency flows, firmware and hardware interaction, disaggregated architecture, and cross-functional technical leadership. The engineer will be responsible for ensuring early risk identification, high-quality milestone readiness, predictable silicon bring-up, rapid sighting debug, and continuous feedback from post-silicon learnings into earlier validation phases. Key Responsibilities: Define and drive end-to-end SoC validation strategy across the full lifecycle, including architecture definition, pre-silicon validation planning, RTL milestone readiness, silicon power-on preparation, post-silicon debug, stepping readiness, and PRQ quality convergence. Develop comprehensive validation plans, execution strategies, coverage goals, debug plans, and sign-off criteria aligned to program milestones and product quality targets. Drive validation of critical SoC flows across security, coherency, memory, fabric, IO, and cross-die interactions in disaggregated architectures.
