About the Role
We are seeking a highly motivated CPU verification engineer to join our design team. In this role, you will be responsible for driving and executing the functional correctness of CPU logic designs through rigorous pre-silicon verification methodologies.
Responsibilities
- Develop and execute comprehensive verification plans to validate CPU logic against architectural specifications.
- Build scalable UVM-based testbenches and define robust functional coverage models.
- Run system-level simulations to uncover design bugs and ensure functional integrity.
- Debug and root-cause issues in the pre-silicon environment; implement corrective actions to resolve test failures.
- Collaborate closely with CPU architect and RTL designers to verify complex architectural and microarchitectural features.
- Document verification strategies and lead technical reviews with design and architecture teams.
- Maintain and enhance existing verification infrastructure and methodologies.
- Contribute to the definition and refinement of CPU architecture and microarchitecture features.
