Senior Lead IC Validation & Characterization Engineer

ams Italy S.r.l.; Linate; In loco; EUR 90.000 - 140.000; Tempo pieno

Descrizione del lavoro

ams OSRAM is seeking an experienced validation lead to drive bring-up and validation of RF, HF, analog, mixed-signal, and high-speed digital ICs in a fast-paced environment. You will develop and execute plans, characterize across PVT, and mentor junior engineers.

The role requires a Master’s in a related field and 8+ years in semiconductor validation, with proven track record from first silicon to production and deep expertise in high-speed optical links and SerDes interfaces.

Competenze

• Master's degree required.
• 8+ years of experience in semiconductor validation, characterization, test, or product engineering.
• Proven track record supporting IC developments from first silicon through production.
• Broadband optical communication systems and IC validation, including high-speed optical links, SerDes-based interfaces, and mixed-signal subsystems.
• RF, HF, analog, mixed-signal, and high-speed digital characterization methodologies.
• Laboratory instrumentation including high-bandwidth oscilloscopes, VNAs, spectrum analyzers, BER testers, signal generators, and automated test equipment.
• Silicon bring-up, characterization, debugging, and correlation of measured and simulated performance.

Mansioni

• Lead bring-up and validation of RF, HF, analog, mixed-signal, and high-speed digital ICs.
• Develop and execute validation plans to verify compliance with product specifications.
• Characterize device performance across process, voltage, and temperature conditions.
• Drive root-cause analysis and resolution of silicon issues.
• Define validation methodologies, measurement strategies, and best practices.
• Support design reviews and provide technical guidance during product development.
• Establish correlation between simulations, models, and silicon measurements.
• Analyze system-level performance including signal integrity, jitter, BER, noise, power consumption, and reliability.
• Collaborate with architecture, design, verification, layout, packaging, product engineering, and manufacturing teams.
• Support customer evaluations, qualification activities, and technical presentations.
• Mentor junior validation and test engineers.
