Job Description

Senior Validation Engineer

We are seeking a Senior Validation Engineer with a strong focus on converter validation. This role offers the opportunity to contribute directly to the next generation of satellite communications at a time when the industry is experiencing significant technological transformation.

Responsibilities

Reporting to the Chip Validation Team Leader, the Senior Validation Engineer will:

  • Focus on validation of high-speed converters, including performance, power consumption, and frequency-domain behavior

  • Validate high-frequency analog and mixed-signal IPs

  • Verify chipsets against functional and performance metrics

  • Develop and own chip-level and system-level test plans in collaboration with design and test teams

  • Build test automation for chip and system validation using Python

  • Investigate test failures, perform root-cause analysis, and drive corrective actions with design and development teams

  • Execute, develop, and plan chip and system tests, contributing to overall product quality improvements

  • Support test management tools and continuous integration workflows

  • Perform data analysis and post-processing of collected test data

  • Test and debug ETTC-related functionality

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electronic or Computer Engineering

  • Experience testing telecommunications or satellite systems

  • Strong background in high-frequency circuits, RF systems, and high-speed communication blocks

  • Hands-on experience validating converters (ADC/DAC), including power consumption and high-speed signal behavior

  • Knowledge of high-speed time-domain links (e.g., SERDES) and associated equipment (BERT, DCA)

  • Proven programming experience in automated test environments (C/C++/Python, etc.)

  • Excellent debugging and analytical skills, with the ability to identify and root-cause complex issues

  • Experience planning, estimating, and developing system-level tests

  • Familiarity with defect-tracking and knowledge-management tools (JIRA, Confluence preferred)

  • Understanding of test methodologies

  • Proficiency with RF and high-frequency test equipment such as spectrum analyzers, VNAs/PNA systems, signal generators, power meters, and high-speed sampling oscilloscopes

  • Strong interpersonal skills

  • Knowledge of RF fundamentals and communication theory

  • Independent, self-motivated, collaborative, and capable of multitasking

  • Ability to work effectively in a fast-paced and evolving environment
