Product Validation Engineer

Product Validation Engineer II At Cadence, we hire and develop leaders and innovators who want to make an impact on the world of technology. Job Title: Product Validation Engineer II ( Solver) Location: Noida - India Job Overview: Join the Test & Validation team to design and scale automated performance and accuracy validation for our CFD/thermal Solver and end-to-end workflows used in electronics cooling and data-centre simulation. You’ll work within Agile SDLC, expand regression coverage as features land, and partner with developers to ensure trustworthy physics, robust performance on HPC/Rescale, and smooth release Software rollouts. Job Responsibilities Own performance & accuracy suites for the mathematical Solver: Create, maintain, and evolve automated tests that exercise steady-state and transient scenarios, comparing results across versions and hardware profiles (multi-core/HPC/Rescale). Grow coverage as features ship: add targeted cases for airflow, temperature and heat-transfer modelling in electronics assemblies and enclosures; verify sensible results under natural/forced convection and liquid-cooling conditions. Scenario libraries & data-center workflows: curate 3D and 1D flow-network cases (e.g., raised floors, external wind/humidity effects, power-network schedules, failure scenarios) to validate end-to-end platform behavior. Automation & tooling : implement Python-based harnesses and automation where appropriate; integrate suites with CI; track trends and defects in JIRA. Defect lifecycle : identify, minimize, and triage issues with clear details in JIRA follow through to fix and release readiness; ensure reproducibility across Windows and Linux. Release & quality signals: contribute to go/no-go decisions; prepare concise internal test documentation with repeatable steps. Agile collaboration: participate in sprint planning, estimation and feature/design reviews with cross-functional teams. Job Qualifications Engineering degree (Mechanical/Aerospace or similar). 2+ years in an automation testing role with experience building or extending test automation frameworks (Python or equivalent). Strong CFD/thermal fundamentals with hands-on validation for electronics cooling and/or data-center airflow/thermal behavior Confident on Windows and Linux Comfortable running jobs across multi-core/HPC clusters and Rescale Practiced in Agile testing and JIRA for defect tracking. Nice to have but not essential Experience of running performance benchmarking tests on known versions. Visual studio experience Data center IT experience ISTQB (Foundation) We’re doing work that matters. Help us solve what others can’t. Experience Level Mid Level
