Job Description:
The Architecture Co-Verification team (ACOV) is an exciting, fast paced team responsible for enabling HW/FW development and co-verification of state-of-art System-On-Chip (SoC) devices using industry leading HW emulators (such as Cadence Palladium and Protium). The team is deployed in all aspects of SoC development phases from architectural exploration to post-silicon validation, HW/FW co-development, pre-silicon functional co-verification, pre/post-silicon performance testing, power analysis, and critical post-silicon investigations.
We are looking for an Emulation Engineer to join our high-energy team. This is an exciting opportunity to work at the forefront of cutting-edge System-on-Chip (SoC) development, where hardware and firmware come together in perfect harmony.
This role is perfect for you if you:
Thrive in a fast-paced, technically challenging environment
Love solving complex system-level problems that span both hardware and firmware
Enjoy working with state-of-the-art emulation and FPGA platforms
Want to build broad, deep expertise and high visibility across the organization
Responsibilities but are not limited to the following:
Port complex SoC RTL designs onto leading hardware emulators and FPGA platforms
Design and develop emulation-specific hardware to enable robust pre-silicon subsystem and full-system co-verification
Build a scalable, common test ecosystem that bridges pre-silicon and post-silicon environments
Develop firmware and test content for system-level hardware/firmware co-verification
Debug and resolve challenging issues in embedded multi-core, real-time systems running on emulators
Leverage advanced protocol analyzers for deep-dive analysis, error injection, and performance optimization
Track verification progress and product quality using industry-standard test and defect management tools
Clearly communicate technical findings and solutions to engineering teams
Requirements/Qualifications:
BS/MS degree or higher in Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field
5+ years of relevant work experience in hardware/firmware development or verification
Hands-on experience with one or more serial storage protocols (SAS, SATA, or NVMe) and strong knowledge of PCIe
Solid understanding of server and storage system architectures, including Windows and Linux host driver models
Proficient Linux user with strong programming and scripting skills in C, Python, Tcl, and Bash
Strong digital design and RTL coding experience using Verilog, SystemVerilog, or VHDL
Experience creating and managing system validation test schedules and executing them effectively
Good knowledge of processor architectures such as MIPS, ARM, or RISC-V , including JTAG, I2C, and firmware development
Demonstrated ability to learn quickly in a fast-paced environment and a proactive, organized self-starter mindset
