工作职责
• Join the NPI (New Product Introduction) build support activities on the ground to get familiar with the hardware. • HW validation hands on once being familiar with iPhone hardware. • Lead a CM HW validation team and review their deliveries daily. • Communicate validation progress/status with US VPM (Validation Program Manager) and Hardware Leads to prioritize project tasks and identify and mitigate technical risks. • Build relationships with multi-functional development teams in the US and China in order to integrate their feedback into the daily validation tasks. • Invent and implement creative improvements on validation tools and process
• Perform electrical design review, including system schematics and I/O connection diagrams. • Perform system bring-up and debug, failure analysis, and triage. • Perform tests and measurements using lab instruments to debug and validate end-to-end interfaces and interconnection designs. • Hands-on experiments on SOC high-speed/low-speed interfaces characterization, including TX/RX Phys setting and tuning. • Support factory engineering build activities, including traveling to different sites. • Develop and bring up factory test stations, develop test scripts, analyze test data, and provide design feedback.
Bring up iPhone/iPad modem systems in close collaboration with other baseband teams and hardware teams. Build, develop and optimize firmware control and adaption algorithm to improve field performance, factory yield and testability. Making validation plan and validate the cellular firmware on different platforms.
Drive system-level optimization of SoC power, thermal, and performance to push the boundaries of iPhone design. Hands-on involvement in SoC silicon bring-up, debugging, testing, and validation at the system level. Design and development of diagnostic SW to exercise SoC functionality and performance at system level. Collaborate with cross-functional hardware and software teams to support system validation, failure analysis (FA), and factory testing. Play a key role in all stages of the project lifecycle, from concept to production, solving sophisticated challenges with creativity and enthusiasm. International travel opportunities will be available to support different stages of development and production.
