System high-speed I/O validation Engineer - Apple Mac
Job Description
This is a system-level validation role within the Mac Hardware organization, specifically in the SerDes I/O validation for Mac Platforms. The candidate’s responsibilities include setting up and executing I/O electrical compliance flow bringups for Mac platforms, testing Mac platforms to stress-test I/Os in systems, and collecting metrics. Additionally, they will be involved in high-speed validation and electrical compliance testing of I/Os for form-factor systems. The candidate will collaborate closely with cross-functional teams, such as system signal integrity, silicon design, or system design teams. While the role primarily focuses on lab validation activities related to system-level signal integrity, there are also validation responsibilities for high-speed cables and fixtures. Come join us! In this role you will: Execute high-speed serial I/O electrical compliance tests Organize compliance data reports for comparison against specs and approval by certification Orgs Troubleshoot and triage issues with compliance test hardware, fixtures, software, and the DUT (Device Under Test) Failure analysis feedback for iterative HW design/SW Tunable improvements Define and develop methods for stress testing to identify design operating limits of Serial IOs post system integration Validation of high-speed fixtures, connectors, cables, and Mac IOs Develop python based scripts to speed up automation and data collection.
