Hardware Lab Technician - Silicon Validation

Responsibilities

• Full Setup Lifecycle Ownership —
• Own board receipt, pre-enablement checks, thermal attachment, peripheral bring-up, and sanity validation for assigned programs; provide ongoing post-enablement support.
• Hardware Diagnostics & Root Cause Analysis — Troubleshoot device-under-test (DUT) failures beyond surface-level symptoms, trace issues to true root cause, and make informed calls on whether a setup is recoverable.
• Thermal Attachment Expertise — Execute thermal attachment procedures across varying cooler head configurations, applying mechanical adjustments as needed to achieve reliable thermal performance.
• Independent Program Ownership — Carry assigned chip programs end-to-end with minimal supervision, including issue triage, sanity runs, and full closure documentation (failure analysis summaries and issue/bug filing).
• Process Improvement — Proactively identify gaps in lab setup, preparation, or validation procedures, and contribute to process improvements that strengthen farm readiness.
• Lab Safety —
• Identify and report safety hazards or incidents promptly to prevent hardware damage or injury.
• Cross-Team Collaboration — Work closely with Farm Engineers, Program Leads, and functional validation teams to align on setup requirements and technical escalations.
