About This Role

  • We are looking for a highly skilled Arithmetic Formal Verification Engineer to join our silicon design team.
  • This role focuses on the formal verification of complex arithmetic hardware blocks, including fixed-point and floating-point datapaths.
  • You will play a critical role in ensuring the mathematical correctness and corner-case robustness of arithmetic-intensive designs used in next-generation compute architectures.
  • Key Responsibilities: Develop and execute formal verification strategies specifically targeting arithmetic logic units (ALUs), floating-point units (FPUs), dividers, multipliers, and custom math blocks.
  • Develop formal verification testbenches and properties for arithmetic hardware designs.
  • Collaborate with RTL designers to understand microarchitectural details and identify verification targets.
  • Write and debug formal arithmetic specifications.
  • Use formal tools (e.g., JasperGold, VC Formal, OneSpin) to prove correctness or find corner-case bugs.
  • Analyze counterexamples and work with design teams to resolve issues.
  • Contribute to the development of verification methodologies and best practices.
  • Document verification plans, results, and coverage metrics.

Requirements

  • You must possess a B.S. in Computer Engineering/ Electrical Engineering or any STEM Degree with 6+ years of experience listed below; OR a M.S. in Computer Engineering/ Electrical Engineering or any STEM Degree with 4+ years of experience listed below; OR a PhD in Computer Engineering/ Electrical Engineering or any STEM Degree with 6+ months of experience listed below.
  • The experience must include the following areas: • Strong understanding of digital design fundamentals, especially arithmetic circuits (e.g., adders, multipliers, dividers, floating-point units). • Hands on experience with industry standard formal verification tools such as JasperGold, Questa Formal, VC Formal. • Experience with formal abstractions and other complexity reduction techniques. • Experience with a hardware modeling language, such as Verilog, VHDL, or SystemVerilog and industry standard logic simulation tools. • Experience in assertion writing, checker development, coverage analysis, failure debug, root cause analysis.

Nice to Have

  • Knowledge of arithmetic computational formats. • Knowledge of theorem proving, model checking, or SAT/SMT solvers. • Knowledge of Intel Architecture ISA and system architecture, x86 assembly language. • Experience working in large-scale SoC or IP development environments. • Computer architecture knowledge with emphasis on out of order processor execution, memory hierarchy, and memory management. • Post-silicon debug and analysis.
