In this role as a Custom Circuits DV Engineer, you will be working with the digital custom circuits team to ensure that all pre-silicon deliveries of custom IPs to all Apple SoC’s are bug-free. This requires you to review design and architecture specifications and understand the use cases and corner conditions. Furthermore, you will be required to translate these specifications into test benches that include all the respective components such as stimulus, checkers, assertions, trackers, and coverage. You will also work closely with both the custom circuit designers and RTL designers to understand the functionality and performance goals of the design. We also require additional responsibilities such as running and triaging regressions, tracking bugs, and analyzing coverage to achieve high quality results. In this highly visible role, you will be at the center of a SoC design effort collaborating with all teams, with a critical impact on getting bug-free functional products to market quickly.
