We are looking for an Sr. Electrical Design Validation Engineer to join our team, who will design,
build, and test prototype electrical systems and validation systems for future consumer VR and
AR experiences. We are looking for a candidate with a broad set of experiences, including
embedded design, analog/mixed signal design, power systems, wearables, or lower power
design.
Responsibilities
● Lead and execute validation and performance characterization by developing and
executing comprehensive test plans for programs at every phase.
● Work closely with design teams and ensure alignment of validation and characterization
plans. Define priorities and validation execution plan.
● Validate the power regulation circuits (SMPS, LDO, power gates), signal integrity, power
integrity, protocol compliance, audio, sensors, co-existing, and eco-system
interoperability.
● Provide expert root cause and corrective action support to resolve any and all issues
found
● Track validation progress, present data, draft whitepapers, and represent status at
design reviews.
● Communicate status to all stakeholders and drive closure of all issues uncovered from
validation tests in every phase of the project.
Required Qualifications
● 6+ years of experience along with a BS/MS in Digital System Design/Electrical
Engineering or Computer Engineering, or equivalent experience.
● Experience with setup and execution of automated or manual testing systems including
experience in conceptualizing the experiments or DOE
● Experience with precision testing (RF, Analog, small-signal etc.)
● Experience troubleshooting designs and the instrumentation impact on measurement.
● Experience with schematic and board design using Cadence Orcad, Altium or
equivalent.
● Experience with use of standard electrical engineering tools such as oscilloscopes, high
speed digital test equipment, logic analyzers, spectrum analyzers and function
generators
● Technical breadth in at least two consumer electronic domains such as, power
electronics, signal integrity, battery management, RF, Audio, sensors systems.
Preferred Qualifications
● Familiarity with VR/AR systems or wearable low-power or portable electronic devices.
● Experience programming in languages like Python/Java/C#/C++/C, creating initial
system bring-up, debugging, and test scripts
● Experience defining and coordinating test procedures in a lab and factory environment to
facilitate system bring-up and evaluation
● Experience designing full system prototypes independently
● Experience validating High Speed buses (USB, HDMI, PCIe, MIPI etc.)
● Understanding of hardware system coexistence and interoperability tests.
● Execute validation and performance characterization by developing and executing
comprehensive test plans for each program at every phase.
● Work closely with design teams and ensure alignment of validation and characterization
plans. Define priorities and validation execution plan.
● Validate the power regulation circuits (SMPS, LDO, power gates), signal integrity, power
integrity, protocol compliance, audio, sensors, co-existing, and eco-system
interoperability.
● Provide expert root cause and corrective action support to resolve any and all issues
found
● Track validation progress, present data, draft whitepapers, and represent status at
design reviews.
● Communicate status to all stakeholders and drive closure of all issues uncovered from
validation tests in every phase
