Job Description

Do Something Wonderful.

In this role you will be part for the Server SoC Design Validation team, working on next-generation Xeon server product SOCs and IPs.

Who You Are

Your responsibilities include but are not limited to:

• Performs functional logic verification and emulation validation of an integrated SoC to ensure design will meet specifications.
• Defines and develops scalable and reusable block, subsystem, and SoC verification plans, test benches, and the verification environment to meet the required level of coverage and confirm to microarchitecture specifications.
• Executes verification plans and defines and runs emulation and system simulation models to verify the design, analyze power and performance, and uncover bugs.
• Replicates, root causes, and debugs issues in the pre-silicon environment. Finds and implements corrective measures to resolve failing tests.
• Collaborates and communicates with SoC architects, micro-architects, full chip architects, RTL developers, post-silicon, and physical design teams to improve verification of complex architectural and microarchitectural features.
• Documents test plans and drives technical reviews of plans and proofs with design and architecture teams.
• Incorporates and executes security activities within test plans, including regression and debug tests, to ensure security coverage.
• Maintains and improves existing functional verification infrastructure and methodology.
• Absorbs learning from post-silicon on the quality of validation done during pre-silicon development, updates test plan for missing coverages and proliferates to future products.

Behavioral traits that we are looking for:

• Robust understanding of fundamental principles of cache coherency in multi-processor SOCs, and experience with layered protocols - transaction layer, data link layer, and PHY layer.
• Strong debug skills and self-reliance in taking an issue to closure with internal and external partners. Takes ownership of assigned tasks.
• Keen problem solver, strong communicator, quick learner, effective team player and open to learning and teaching new and more efficient validation execution techniques to meet time-to-market.

Minimum qualifications are required to be initially considered for this position. Preferred qualifications are in addition to the minimum requirements and are considered a plus factor in identifying top candidates.
