JOB: AV&V Engineer At Texas Instruments In Bengaluru

APPLY HERE

Location: Bengaluru

Company: Texas Instruments

In this role, you will serve as a functional validation engineer to own/lead activities for different SoCs. You will work on different aspects of pre / post-silicon execution, FPGA prototyping, and hardware emulation to ensure our highly differentiated products meet the highest quality standards.

What you will gain from this role:

• Own/Lead SoC Validation, FPGA & Emulation for application-specific MCUs.
• Global Exposure: Opportunity to interact with worldwide teams for FPGA prototyping, emulation, post-silicon validation, and system integration.

Responsibilities

• FPGA Prototyping & Emulation: Own SoC prototyping and validation strategies using high-performance platforms, specifically FPGA (e.g., Xilinx/AMD, Intel) and Palladium hardware emulation environments.
• Silicon Bring-up: Own the execution of post-silicon bring-up, functional validation, and characterisation activities across temperature and voltage corners.
• Board-Level Concepts: Own the development of complex validation boards, custom FPGA prototyping boards, reference platforms, and test fixtures required for silicon evaluation.
• Cross-Functional Debug: Interact heavily with Test, Software/ROM, Application Engineering, and Analogue Design teams to isolate, root-cause, and debug complex silicon bugs using both lab equipment and FPGA/Emulation trace environments.
• Influence & Governance: Participate in and conduct rigorous hardware design reviews, board schematic reviews, and post-silicon/FPGA readiness gates.
• Methodology Innovation: Innovate and drive improved validation methodologies and automation frameworks, collaborating with EDA and instrument vendors to upgrade lab tools, FPGA synthesis/mapping tools, and emulation flows.

Preferred Qualifications

• Education: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical / Electronics Engineering.
• Experience: Minimum of 4+ years of experience in semiconductor validation and prototyping
• Technical Depth: Strong understanding of board-level hardware concepts, high-speed signal integrity, lab equipment (oscilloscopes, logic analysers), FPGA prototyping workflows, and emulation platforms (Palladium).
• Soft Skills: Strong verbal/written communication, time management, analytical problem-solving, and a result-driven attitude to handle evolving requirements dynamically.
