Job Description

Key Qualifications

  • Preferably BE/B.Tech/ME/M.Tech in EEE/ECE/CSE with 5-12 years of relevant industry experience.
  • Should have experience in verification methodology.
  • Architecting and development of testbench, test-bench components for ISA features, clock/reset/power features of processor.
  • Strong assembly and CPU (x86/ARM/RISC-V) architecture knowledge.
  • Strong in C, C++, Verilog, and scripting (Perl, Python) languages.
  • Ability to work independently and across geographies

Requirement

Role and Responsibilities

  • Work with CPU architects to get understand processor micro-architecture
  • Develop detailed test and coverage plans for ISA and micro-architecture features
  • Design and develop component, block and core level testbenches including stimulus engines, microarchitectural models, checkers
  • Build architectural tools for ISA level verification
  • Develop stimulus generators that scale from pre-silicon to emulation and post-silicon domain
  • Execute verification plans, including DV environment bring-up, regression enabling for all features under your care, debug of the test failures
  • Track and report DV progress using a variety of metrics, including bugs and coverage

Preferred Qualifications

  • Deep knowledge in processor verification function and architecture, in areas such as cache coherence, memory ordering and consistency, prefetching, branch prediction, renaming, speculative execution, and memory translation
  • Knowledge in Random Instruction Sequencing (RIS) and testing associated as block/unit and chip level for proving correctness
  • Have lead a small team of verification engineers doing CPU verification
  • Advanced techniques such as formal, assertions, and silicon bring up a plus
  • Experience in writing test plans, portable benches, transactors, and assembly
  • Experience with many different verification methodologies and tools such as simulators, coverage collection, gate level simulation
  • Able to develop test bench and work independently on a block/unit of the design
