Key Responsibilities 

Component, System and User Acceptance Validation 

• Develop comprehensive validation plans, test strategies, and test coverage matrices for embedded firmware and system-level functionality based on but not limited to FPGA firmware and hardware specifications, requirements from marketing/product planning team, and more importantly from deep diving into customer usage scenarios and use conditions 

• Analyse product requirements, customer workflows, and functional specifications to derive end‑to‑end use cases 

• Define acceptance criteria and validation coverage for each use case 

• Design, implement, and successfully execute automated test cases  

• Perform regression testing, functional testing, stress testing, negative testing, and integration testing and end-to-end customer use-case testing 

Debug & Root Cause Analysis 

• Diagnose, reproduce, and root-cause complex firmware/system issues 

• Triangulate failures across firmware, software, and hardware boundaries 

• Work with firmware engineers, hardware designers, and system architects to root-cause issues 

• Track defects, document findings, and drive issue resolution to closure 

• Collaborate closely with firmware, hardware, and architecture teams to isolate defects and drive resolution 

Automation & Infrastructure 

• Develop or enhance automation frameworks using Python, Perl or scripting tools 

• Improve log collection, test orchestration, and result reporting systems 

• Contribute to continuous integration/continuous validation (CI/CV) infrastructure 

• Maintain test equipment, lab setups, and test environments 

Documentation & Reporting 

• Provide detailed test reports, defect logs, and validation summaries 

• Document test procedures, configuration details, and validation outcomes 

• Participate in design reviews, risk assessments, and release readiness evaluations
