Silicon Validation Engineer 3

Our client, Hardware Engineering and R&D is seeking a Silicon Validation Engineer 3 to join their team. As a Silicon Validation Engineer 3, you will be part of the Silicon Validation team supporting silicon system regression execution, triage, and ongoing maintenance. The ideal candidate will have strong hands-on engineering experience in silicon validation, demonstrated debugging skills using industry-standard tools, and the ability to analyze results and communicate findings clearly.

Job Title: Silicon Validation Engineer 3

Location: Hillsboro, OR (Fully onsite, lab environment)

Pay Range: $60-64 per hour on Experis W2

Contract : 4-18 months

What's the Job?

• Run, triage, and maintain silicon system regressions to ensure reliable validation coverage.

• Execute validation test plans for SoC features and subsystems across functional, electrical, and/or power/performance areas.

• Report results of silicon system regressions, including clear summaries of outcomes, risks, and next steps.

• Analyze test results to identify, isolate, and debug issues using appropriate debugging tools and methods.

• Review and validate system updates made by other teams to confirm expected behavior and performance.

What's Needed?

• 3+ years of hands-on, engineering-level experience in silicon validation, testing, or debugging (technician-only profiles are not a fit).

• Demonstrated validation experience in one or more areas:: PCIe, CXL, IO, endpoints (network/storage), power management, and/or BIOS/FW development and debug.

• Engineering-level knowledge of high-speed IO interfaces and system-level validation principles, including SoC subsystem, SoC system-level, and platform-level functionality.

• Proficiency with scripting/software development using industry-standard languages such as Python or C/C++ (and some knowledge of Verilog is a plus).

• Experience with hardware and software debug tools such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, JTAG, BERT, and related validation equipment; strong problem-solving and communication skills.

What's in it for me?

• Work on state-of-the-art compute silicon that supports cloud infrastructure.

• Own meaningful validation outcomes by running and maintaining silicon system regressions end-to-end.

• Strengthen your debugging and analytical skills through real-time triage and issue isolation.

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams by reviewing system updates and validating expected behavior.

• Opportunity for extension based on quarterly budget planning (chance for extension: yes).
