Jr. Bench AMS Validation Engineer
Location: San Diego
Experience: 0-3 years
Summary:
Tessolve is looking for a Junior Bench AMS (Analog Mixed-Signal) Validation Engineer to join our silicon validation team in San Diego. You’ll help bring up, characterize and validate analog and mixed-signal ICs on the lab bench, and work with design, test and product teams to get silicon to production.
About the Role:
In this role you will validate AMS silicon on the bench, building and running test setups to measure device performance against specifications. It’s a strong entry point for an engineer who wants hands-on lab experience in analog, power and mixed-signal validation.
What You’ll Do:- Perform bench bring-up and characterization of AMS ICs (e.g., power management, ADC/DAC, PLL, amplifiers, interfaces)
- Set up and debug lab test boards, probe stations and instruments
- Measure and verify key parameters across process, voltage and temperature (PVT) conditions
- Use lab equipment such as oscilloscopes, DMMs, power supplies, source-measure units, function generators and spectrum analyzers
- Write and run automated test scripts (Python, LabVIEW or similar) to speed up data collection
- Analyze data, spot anomalies and help root-cause silicon or board issues
- Prepare test plans, characterization reports and summaries for design teams
- Work with design, test and applications teams, and follow lab safety and documentation practices
- What You BringBS/MS in Electrical or Electronics Engineering (or a related field)0-3 years of experience in bench validation, lab characterization or analog circuit testing (internships and academic projects count)
- Solid fundamentals in analog circuits: op-amps, regulators, references, data converters, filters
- Hands-on experience with standard lab instruments
- Basic scripting skills (Python preferred) and an interest in automation
- Strong debugging, analytical and communication skills
