About This Role

  • As a SoC Design Verification Engineer, you will play a pivotal role in ensuring the successful delivery of high-quality integrated System-on-Chip (SoC) designs that meet stringent specifications.
  • Your contributions will directly support Intel's mission to engineer cutting-edge solutions that redefine technology's impact on the world.
  • This role offers the opportunity to collaborate across multidisciplinary teams, driving innovation and solving complex challenges in SoC verification.
  • Your work will be instrumental in shaping Intel's next-generation products, influencing industry trends, and enhancing Intel's reputation for excellence.
  • Key Responsibilities: - Define and develop scalable and reusable block, subsystem, and SoC verification plans, test benches, and environments to achieve required coverage levels and confirm adherence to microarchitecture specifications. - Execute verification plans and system simulation models to analyze power, performance, and design functionality, uncovering and resolving bugs. - Replicate, root cause, and debug issues in the presilicon environment, implementing corrective measures to address failing tests. - Collaborate with SoC architects, microarchitects, RTL developers, postsilicon engineers, and physical design teams to enhance verification processes for complex architectural and microarchitectural features. - Document test plans and lead technical reviews of plans and proofs with design and architecture teams. - Incorporate security validation activities, including regression and debug tests, ensuring comprehensive security coverage. - Maintain and refine existing functional verification infrastructure and methodologies, driving continuous improvement. - Absorb learning from postsilicon activities, update test plans for missing coverage, and proliferate improvements to future product designs.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field. - 8+ years of experience with a Bachelor's degree, 6+ years of experience with a Master's degree, or 5+ years of experience with a PhD. - Proficiency in SystemVerilog and Universal Verification Methodology (UVM). - Proven expertise in verification methodologies and strategies, including directed and random test case development. - Strong debugging capabilities for SoC, fabric, memory subsystems, and protocols such as PCIe or Ethernet. - Comprehensive knowledge of microarchitecture concepts and advanced computer architecture. - Experience in emulation and simulation tools for verification, including power and performance analysis.

Nice to Have

  • Exposure to SoC architectures, cache coherency protocols (e.g., CHI, IDI, UXI), and high-speed I/O subsystems. - Familiarity with AMBA protocols and debugging tools.
  • Exposure to DSP algorithms and validation methods using MATLAB model - Experience in security validation flows, boot flows, fuse controllers, reset and clock validation. - Knowledge of IP/Subsystem/SoC-level verification and coverage closure. - Excellent teamwork, communication, and problem-solving skills. - Enthusiasm to lead technical innovation, contributing to Intel's world-class product development.
  • We invite you to become part of Intel's journey to redefine technological excellence.
  • Apply today to make a lasting impact on the future of innovation.
