CPU Debug and Power Management Verification Engineer

About the role

We are seeking a highly motivated Design Verification Engineer to join our silicon engineering team focused on the auxiliary features of a high-performance ARM-based CPU. These features include Power Management, Clock Control, Debug Infrastructure, Resets, and Special-Purpose Registers-spanning both ARM-standard capabilities and Apple-specific innovations. - You will work across the entire product lifecycle, from pre-silicon test planning to supporting post-silicon bring-up and debug when needed. This role is highly cross-functional, bridging CPU and SoC teams, and is critical to delivering robust, low-power, high-performance CPU designs. - Work closely with architecture and RTL designers on verifying the functionality correctness of CPU Power Management, clock control, and debug logic - Develop and execute test plans and schedules - Write and debug tests in Assembly, SystemVerilog, SVA, C++, and scripting languages to validate functionality in simulation, emulation, and FPGA environments - Build and maintain verification infrastructure, including checkers, transactors, and coverage monitors. - Analyze functional coverage to ensure test plan completeness - Identify, root-cause, and document design issues and collaborate with RTL teams to drive fixes - Support SoC-level debug for clock and power integration issues - Work with silicon bring-up teams to develop tests and debug issues across emulation, FPGA, and silicon. Contribute to post-silicon debug, using waveform and trace tools to diagnose complex system issues.
