Hardware Engineer II

Duration:  12 Months

Pay Rate: 65-75/HR. on W2

Define electrical validation methodologies for PCB and different subsystems by working with system integration EE team and technology teams.

· Define and track detailed test plans for the different modules and top level systems. Validation coverage includes SoC, low speed signal interface (I2C, I2S, PDM...etc), I/O signals, high speed differential interface, electrical performance of subsystems such as optical sensors, microphones, cameras, battery, charger, and RF.

· Drive and execute validation to meet key deadlines and priority goals.

· Own execution, interpretation, and reporting of electrical validation work status and results.

· Keep track of coverage metrics and bugs encountered and fixed

· Support system bring up and debug activities

· Clearly communicate test plans and results
