PnP System Validation and Integration Engineer
Intel, Israel, Haifa
The role
Job Description
The PnP SV (Power and Performance System Validation) group is responsible for the functional (logical) integrity of the processor, from the first silicon stage through to mass production.
In the period before the first silicon, the group is responsible for defining the processor testing methodology and its environment, defining test plans, and developing some of the software and hardware tools required to perform the tests.
In the period between the first silicon and readiness for mass production, the group focuses on running the defined tests and performs DEBUG of failures in order to ensure that all logical bugs have been found. After approval for mass production, problems and bugs that were missed (from customers) arrive, and work is done on them (as each processor has many derivatives).
