Job Description

In this position, you will join the next generation CPU pre-silicon verification team and will be responsible for exhaustively validating the RTL implementation of new architecture and micro-architecture capabilities using a combination of standalone and top level test environments.

Your responsibilities may include, but are not limited to, the following:

·  Technical ownership of validation of a microarchitecture block, methodology, or otherwise significant aspect of CPU validation
·  Investigating new techniques to accelerate validation of CPU hardware, firmware, and software domains
·  Executing functional, performance, and power validation using dynamic, formal, and analytical approaches
·  Developing validation content like tools, test generators to match the complexity of new core and be reused in pre-si and post-si
·  Read and interpret technical specs and create high quality technical documentation like test plans, strategy documents
·  Collaborating and communicating with architecture, design, pre-si and post-si validation, and other teams to achieve project goals
·  Contributing to post-silicon debug preparation and sighting resolution
