About the role
The candidate for this position will be expected and able to complete the following responsibilities: Establish yourself as an integral member of a pre-silicon SoC verification team, owning aspects of performance verification, and aligning with architecture, design, firmware, and emulation. Become knowledgeable on the overall SoC architecture, including tradeoffs that effect power and performance. Develop verification strategy, test plans, requirements, environments, tools, and methodologies. Apply your knowledge of performance verification principles and techniques and your judgement to write test plans and implement them by developing tests, test generators, test benches, checkers, coverage, and other verification collateral. Run tests, correlate results with architecture, debug failures to root cause, recommend fixes. Apply your growth mindset to learn and adapt in a complex and dynamic environment. Engage with partners to drive continuous improvement to the architecture, design, and verification plans/collateral, and to methodology to prevent, reduce, and/or find bugs sooner, more easily, or more reliably. Mentor and coach team members Embody our culture and values. 14+ years of pre-silicon SOC or subsystem or IP verification experience. Candidate must have at least a bachelor's or master's degree in electrical, Electronics, Computer Engineering, Computer Science or a related degree 8+ years of verification experience working on CPU/Fabric/DDR/IO designs verification, with 6+ years of performance verification experience 14+ years of experience as part of a CPU, SoC and/or IP development team focusing on performance Performance verification ARM architecture CPU architecture Memory Controller/PHY IPs, DDR protocols Coherent and non-coherent fabric IPs and protocols PCIe/CXL Controller/PHY IPs and protocols ACE lite or CHI bus protocols Working knowledge of C/C++ Experience with emulation, constraints, and implications on performance verification Proficient communication, collaboration and teamwork skills and ability to contribute to diverse and inclusive teams. This role will require access to information that is controlled for export under export control regulations, potentially under the U.S. International Traffic in Arms Regulations or Export Administration Regulations, the EU Dual Use Regulation, and/or other export control regulations. As a condition of employment, the successful candidate will be required to provide either proof of their country of citizenship or proof of their US. residency or other protected status (e.g., under 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3)) for assessment of eligibility to access the export-controlled information. To meet this legal requirement, and as a condition of employment, the successful candidate's citizenship will be verified with a valid passport. Lawful permanent residents, refugees, and asylees may verify status using other documents, where applicable.
