About us

MangoBoost, Inc.

MangoBoost is a start-up company that develops groundbreaking new data processing units (DPUs). MangoBoost’s novel DPUs can be customized and flexibly integrated in server systems to address myriad of system overheads, and make other devices (such as SSDs, GPUs, NICs, etc.) smarter. As a result, MangoBoost DPU offers a dramatic boost in system efficiency, performance, scalability, and cost effectiveness. MangoBoost leverages ~10 years of prior world-leading research done in academia, which has produced extensive full-system patent-pending prototypes published at premier conferences in computer architecture and systems areas (for example ISCA and OSDI). MangoBoost has received $10M seed fund in 2022, $55M series A fund in 2023 and is actively growing in the US and Korea.

MangoBoost is comprised of the world's top computer system developers. The founder is currently one of the world's leading computer system architects, and other members are also experts with outstanding careers in various aspects of computer system development. Most team members have conducted research and worked at top-tier universities and companies worldwide. Since 2014, our team has been developing the world's top-level DPU, and we are the only start-up capable of designing a DPU that can compete immediately with giants like Amazon and NVIDIA.

Position Overview

MangoBoost is actively seeking skilled DV (Design Verification) engineers to join our Seoul office in Korea for IP/FPGA/SoC (System-on-Chip) developments. The role involves a wide range of responsibilities, including verifying in-house accelerator IPs and performing comprehensive verification for complex systems encompassing commercial IPs and in-house IPs. DV engineers need to understand the functionalities of the DPU IPs and construct robust verification environments, develop workflows and verification methodologies, all activities are aimed to develop bug-free hardware IPs to make MangoBoost DPU solutions a lot more valuable.

Responsibilities & Opportunities

• Lead comprehensive system-level software/hardware verification and troubleshooting for MangoBoost DPUs using RTL simulation, ensuring robustness and reliability
• Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams (IP Design, Software, Architecture, SoC, etc.) to meticulously validate the functionality and performance of DPU systems and applications
• Evaluate system workflow and performance, providing recommendations for enhancements based on user feedback, complaints, and bug reports from other teams
• Opportunity to spearhead the development and implementation of innovative HW-focused verification methodologies to enhance DPU product quality and efficiency
• Engage in continuous learning and professional development to stay updated with the latest DV techniques and technologies

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor, Master, or PhD in Electrical or Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field, with 2+ year industry experience
• Experience in RTL simulation with Verilog/System Verilog
• Experience in digital HW verification flow

Preferred Qualifications

• Ability to write UVM testbench code from scratch
• Familiarity with protocols and standards in the AMBA, Ethernet, PCIe and NVMe domains
• Ability to establish comprehensive and concrete verification plans
• Experience in HW IP-level verification
• Working experiences in coverage driven constraint random verification
• Ability to model a system with OOP (Object-Oriented Programming) paradigm
• Strong background on computer architecture and operating system
• Experience in performance verification (measuring and analyzing DUT performance metrics)
• Proficiency in scripting languages such as Python or Perl, to automate DV processes
