• You will work across the entire product lifecycle, from pre-silicon test planning to supporting post-silicon bring-up and debug when needed. This role is highly cross-functional, bridging CPU and SoC teams, and is critical to delivering robust, low-power, high-performance CPU designs.• Work closely with architecture and RTL designers on verifying the functionality correctness of CPU Power Management, clock control, and debug logic• Develop and execute test plans and schedules• Write and debug tests in Assembly, SystemVerilog, SVA, C++, and scripting languages to validate functionality in simulation, emulation, and FPGA environments• Build and maintain verification infrastructure, including checkers, transactors, and coverage monitors.• Analyze functional coverage to ensure test plan completeness• Identify, root-cause, and document design issues and collaborate with RTL teams to drive fixes• Support SoC-level debug for clock and power integration issues• Work with silicon bring-up teams to develop tests and debug issues across emulation, FPGA, and silicon. Contribute to post-silicon debug, using waveform and trace tools to diagnose complex system issues.
- Minimum BS and 3+ years of relevant industry experience
- Experience with digital logic and micro-processor architecture or power management architecture
- Experience with digital design verification including experience using Verilog and System-Verilog-based testbenches and transactors checkers
- Programming skills in scripting languages in one of the following: Perl or Python
- Experience in processor or power management architecture and verification
- Experience with system fabric protocols such as AXI
- In-depth knowledge in design verification environments like random constraint verification and/or UVM base testbenches
- Experience in System Verilog assertions or silicon bringup or UPF and low power simulation
- Experience in processor debug features including hardware trace is a plus
- Experience with advanced verification techniques such as formal verification is a plus
- Advanced programming skills such as object orientated programming or CPU assembly language is a plus
- Should be an extraordinary teammate with excellent communication skills with the ability to articulate complex design issues during verification effort
- Be able to create and follow detailed work schedules and work independently on the verification efforts for a block/area of the design
These jobs might be a good fit
