Job summary

Centific Global Solutions (M) Sdn Bhd is seeking a Senior Verification Engineer to own electrical and system verification for assigned subsystems, from Proto to MP stages. You will develop test plans, set criteria, and drive test quality.

You will collaborate with EE design, FW, thermal, mechanical teams and mentor junior verification engineers while ensuring traceability and robust documentation across regional labs.

Qualifications

• Experience in electrical and system verification for hardware subsystems.
• Ability to create high-level test plans and define entry/exit criteria per build.
• Strong debugging and root-cause analysis skills.

Responsibilities

• Own electrical and system verification for assigned subsystems: develop high-level test plans, define test priorities and coverage, and set entry/exit criteria per build (Proto, EVT, DVT, PVT, MP).
• Take operational and technical ownership of verification activities at CM and vendor labs ensure adherence to measurement techniques, setup integrity, and quality of documentation.
• Execute and oversee bring-up, characterization, and debug of prototype hardware across power, signal integrity, memory/storage, sensors, thermal, and system coexistence domains.
• Drive failures to root cause and classify them as product, test, environment, config, or handling issues; file high-quality bugs with repro steps, build/config IDs, artifacts, and gate impact.
• Capture complete metadata for every test run (unit SNs, OS build, FW version, tool build, chamber ID, ambient conditions) and maintain traceability to requirements.
• Serve as the communication bridge between engineers in the US and verification teams in-region; represent verification status in daily triage, bug syncs, and build readiness reviews.
• Partner with EE design, FW, thermal, mechanical, and TPM counterparts to close verification gaps and influence design for testability.
• Improve verification capability over time — test procedures, reporting, and automation of repetitive measurements.
• Mentor junior and contingent worker verification engineers in region.
• Domestic and regional travel as needed (up to ~30%).
