About the role

Meta Infra Silicon team handles silicon bring-up, validation, and characterization across pre- and post-silicon stages for data center ASICs, focusing on validation, lab automation, and scalable characterization across process, voltage, and temperature corners.

Responsibilities

  • Execute validation and PVT characterization test plans on emulation platforms and on silicon in the lab
  • Bring up boards and systems and set up test environments and instrumentation
  • Validate your domain's feature sets and report results against expected behavior
  • Run and interpret domain measurements
  • Write and maintain Python test scripts, automation, and analysis tooling; contribute to the team's shared validation framework
  • Triage and debug failures hands-on — narrow down whether an issue is silicon, firmware, driver, board, or test setup — and document findings clearly
  • Use schematics and platform documentation to probe the right signals or nets and interpret results correctly
  • Produce clean, reproducible characterization data and summaries for design, firmware, and manufacturing partners
  • Support lab infrastructure: bench, rack, and power setup; instrument calibration; switch and traffic-generator configuration; and keeping test environments running

Qualifications

  • Currently has, or is in the process of obtaining a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience. Degree must be completed prior to joining Meta
  • 2+ years of relevant industry experience in ASIC validation, hardware bring-up, or a related silicon engineering discipline
  • Hands-on lab experience with hardware bring-up, debug, and measurement
  • Experience with test and measurement instrumentation in a lab environment
  • Ability to read schematics and platform documentation
  • Proficiency in Python for test development and automation
  • Experience with pre-silicon (emulation/FPGA) or post-silicon validation
