Descripción del empleo

The validation team works closely with architects, designers, verification engineers, software engineers, and customers. The team is currently seeking candidates specifically in SOC validation and integration in pre-silicon emulation and post-silicon regression, PVT test areas. Technical disciplines, languages and methodologies included in this team are:

Key Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, and optimize validation tests for multi-processor systems with a focus on system level concurrency.
• Develop and maintain bare-metal software, including low-level hardware interfaces, register and interrupt programming, and clock and power management.
• Collaborate with hardware and software teams to define and validate system level software use cases.
• Debug and troubleshoot System-On-Chip with limited visibility, using development boards and lab equipment.
• Implement and optimize algorithms for performance, power efficiency, and memory footprint.
• Support pre-silicon validation efforts, working with simulation, emulation, and FPGAs.
• Conduct post-silicon bring-up, validation, system level use cases, and system integration.

Required Qualifications:

• Strong understanding of operating systems concepts, caching, virtual memory, and embedded software fundamentals.
• Experience with bare-metal software development and low-level hardware interfaces.
• Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work in a dynamic, collaborative environment.
• Experience programming in C, Assembly language.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with developing and applying machine learning models for system validation.
• Familiarity in reading and understand the RTL code (e.g. Verilog, VHDL) and use the knowledge in the context of silicon validation.

Minimum Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Science, Engineering, or related field and 2+ years of ASIC design, verification, validation, integration, or related work experience.
• Master's degree in Science, Engineering, or related field and 1+ year of ASIC design, verification, validation, integration, or related work experience.
• PhD in Science, Engineering, or related field.
