PSV: Mid Senior Role

Cyient; Bengaluru; On-site; INR 1,800,000 - 2,400,000; Full time

Job summary

Cyient is seeking an Experienced Post-Silicon Validation engineer to drive analog IP and PMIC validation, characterization, and bench-testing activities. You will lead validation teams, define strategies, automate bench measurements, and debug silicon issues through close collaboration with design, system, product, and test engineering teams.

You will build automated validation frameworks, develop reusable test scripts, and mentor engineers in bench validation and data analysis.

Qualifications

• Strong hands-on analog IC and PMIC post-silicon validation.
• Experience validating power-management functions such as LDOs, buck/boost converters, and battery-management circuits.
• Expertise in analog and mixed-signal measurements, characterization methodologies, and validation flows.
• Experience validating silicon against electrical specs and datasheet requirements.
• Exposure to silicon debugging, failure isolation, and engineering change recommendations.

Responsibilities

• Lead end-to-end post-silicon validation and characterization of analog IPs and PMIC devices.
• Define validation strategy, test plans, coverage matrices, schedules, and milestones.
• Own validation execution across pre-silicon readiness, first silicon bring-up, characterization, and production support.
• Review specifications, design documents, datasheets, and validation requirements.
• Develop and execute bench-validation procedures for functional validation, DC/AC characterization, power measurements, and protection features.
• Build and maintain automated validation frameworks using Python, NI PXI, TestStand, and LabVIEW.
• Develop reusable test scripts, drivers, data-logging modules, and report-generation solutions.
• Integrate oscilloscopes, power supplies, SMUs, and spectrum/network analyzers.
• Debug silicon, board, firmware, software, and measurement issues using root-cause analysis.
• Analyze characterization data, identify trends, and provide conclusions.
• Own validation reports, defect docs, failure analyses, and executive status updates.
• Coordinate with global teams and communicate risks and schedule impact.
• Mentor engineers in bench validation, automation, and data analysis.
• Drive continuous improvement in validation coverage and test quality.

Job description

Experienced Post Silicon Validation required to drive Analog and PMIC validation, characterization, and bench-testing activities. The ideal candidate will have proven experience leading validation teams, developing comprehensive validation strategies, automating bench measurements, and debugging complex silicon issues through close collaboration with Analog Design, System, Product, Applications, and Test Engineering teams.

Key Responsibilities

• Working on end-to-end post-silicon validation and characterization of analog IPs and PMIC devices.
• Define validation strategy, test plans, coverage matrices, schedules, and execution milestones.
• Own validation execution across pre-silicon readiness, first silicon bring-up, characterization, qualification, and production support.
• Review specifications, design documents, schematics, datasheets, and validation requirements.
• Develop and execute detailed bench-validation procedures for:
  • Functional validation
  • DC and AC electrical characterization
  • Power, voltage, current, and thermal measurements
  • Accuracy, efficiency, line/load regulation, and transient response
  • Protection features such as OVP, UVLO, OCP, OTP, and short-circuit response
  • Power sequencing, startup/shutdown, ramp behavior, and fault recovery
  • Corner, stress, and limit testing
• Build and maintain automated validation frameworks using Python, NI PXI, TestStand, LabVIEW, and related bench-automation environments.
• Develop reusable test scripts, drivers, measurement utilities, data-logging modules, and report-generation solutions.
• Integrate oscilloscopes, power supplies, electronic loads, SMUs, source-measure units, spectrum/network analyzers, and other laboratory equipment.
• Debug silicon, board, firmware, software, and measurement-related failures using systematic root-cause-analysis techniques.
• Analyze characterization data, identify trends and anomalies, and provide technically sound conclusions.
• Own validation reports, defect documentation, failure analysis summaries, and executive-level status updates.
• Coordinate with global engineering teams and communicate risks, dependencies, silicon issues, and schedule impact.
• Mentor engineers in bench validation, automation, debugging, data analysis, and effective documentation practices.
• Drive continuous improvement in validation coverage, automation efficiency, test quality, and execution processes.

Required Technical Skills

Analog and PMIC Validation

• Strong hands-on experience in analog IC and PMIC post-silicon validation.
• Expertise in validating power-management functions such as:
  • LDOs
  • Buck and boost converters
  • Charge pumps
