The role provides exciting challenges of creating and implementing test/validation methodologies using the latest design-for-test (DFT)/BIST capabilities in different areas including SOC/Platform/System Test as well as automated test equipment. Structured ASIC team: This is a structured ASIC team under Intel's Programmable Solutions Group targeting 5G, cloud computing and high-end consumer application space. Intel eASIC devices are structured ASICs, an intermediary technology between FPGAs and standard-cell ASICs bridging the gap between FPGA and Custom ASIC. Structured ASIC team in Intel's PSG group is the strategic acquisition of eASIC (the de facto leader in structured ASICs). Due to the proven success with our current and previous products (eASIC-N5X and eASIC-N3XS), we are building out our team to support the growth of new product families and rapidly expanding customer base. This success is an outcome of a close-knit integration of technologists across architecture, design and verification/validation, and deep customer engagement.
