Job description

Job Overview:

Join our dynamic FPGA Prototyping verification team, a key part of Arm’s Solutions Engineering group! We are a dedicated group of engineers providing a robust platform to build and test software on Arm’s brand-new subsystems and System-on-Chips (SoCs).

Our mission is to accelerate the development process by offering a versatile and high-performance prototyping environment that enables seamless software integration and validation. These solutions target a wide range of market segments including mobile, server, IoT, automotive, and more.

As a member of this team your day-to-day work will consist primarily of driving verification of SoC (System on Chip) RTL designs that are modified for FPGA implementation, developing and maintaining SoC verification testbench, integrating third party VIPs, writing Testcases in C, reusing C Testcases from internal IP/ SoC frontend team, creating test-plans, developing tools using scripting languages like
Python, Perl, Shell for automation of tasks.

If you are looking for a role that combines hardware and software skills in an environment where you can make a meaningful contribution, we’d love to hear from you! Join our committed team that builds innovative FPGA solutions and collaborates closely to achieve great results.

Responsibilities:
·Implement and execute verification strategies to ensure detailed testing of the assigned Subsystem or SoC module.
·Work closely with design engineers, architects, and other verification engineers to understand design requirements and plan verification.
·Apply excellent verbal and written communication skills to report verification progress, issues, and results to customers.
·Automate test cases and regression suites to improve verification efficiency and coverage.

Required Skills and Experience:

·Solid understanding of SoC Verification (using C Testcases), hardware description and verification languages e.g. SystemVerilog, Verilog, VHDL.
·Understanding of Computer architecture, bus protocols (e.g., AXI, AHB), and peripherals.

·Experience with Tcl, Python or other scripting languages.

“Nice To Have” Skills and Experience:
·Experience with ARM-based designs and/or ARM System Architectures.
·Familiarity with ARM debugger and trace features e.g ARM DS, DSTREAM.
·Experience with verification methodologies – UVM/OVM.
·Knowledge of PCIe and CXL will be a plus.
