AI Solutions Engineer – Debug Tools

The Role:

We are looking for a highly motivated AI Solutions Engineer to help transform how semiconductor debugging and tool readiness are delivered through AI-powered solutions. In this role, you will work directly with debug tools developers, architects, and SoC engineers to identify high-impact engineering problems and rapidly develop AI-driven solutions that improve productivity, accelerate bring-up activities, and shift-left debug readiness.

The Person:

You will serve as the bridge between engineering teams and AI technologies, turning complex debugging workflows into scalable AI-enabled experiences. The ideal candidate combines strong technical problem-solving skills, software development expertise, and a passion for applying modern AI technologies to real-world challenges.

Key Responsibilities:

• Partner with debug tools leads, debug teams/key users to identify engineering bottlenecks and automation opportunities.
• Design, prototype, and deploy AI-powered solutions that improve debug efficiency, reduce manual effort, and accelerate root-cause analysis.
• Develop agentic workflows, copilots, MCP integrations, RAG systems, and AI assistants for semiconductor debugging use cases.
• Build proof-of-concepts and production-ready solutions using LLMs, AI agents, and automation frameworks.
• Translate semiconductor debug workflows into scalable software and AI solutions.
• Analyze logs, reports, register data, validation results, and other engineering artifacts to develop intelligent troubleshooting capabilities.
• Drive shift-left initiatives by enabling earlier defect detection, readiness validation, and automated diagnostics.
• Work closely with software, firmware, validation, and silicon teams to deploy solutions into daily engineering workflows.
• Measure business impact through productivity improvements, cycle-time reduction, and readiness acceleration.
• Evangelize AI best practices and help engineers adopt AI-first workflows.

Required experience:

• •  Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field.
• 5-8 years of software engineering, automation, validation, or semiconductor engineering experience.
• Strong programming skills in Python.
• Experience developing enterprise applications, automation solutions, or engineering tools.
• Hands-on experience with Generative AI technologies including:
• LLMs (OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, Llama, etc.)
• Agentic AI frameworks
• MCP (Model Context Protocol)
• Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG)
• Vector databases and embeddings
• Prompt engineering and evaluation
• Experience building APIs, automation workflows, and integrations.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management abilities.

Preferred Experience

• Experience in semiconductor debugging, silicon validation, bring-up, or DFT/debug environments.
• Familiarity with scan, JTAG, registers, validation logs, silicon debug, or post-silicon workflows.
• Experience with SoC architecture, debug tools, firmware validation, or hardware/software co-debug.
• Knowledge of GitHub Copilot, AI coding assistants, and developer productivity tools.
• Experience deploying AI solutions in production environments.

Familiarity with data engineering, knowledge graphs, and search technologies.
