About the Role

Samsung Austin Research and Development Center (SARC) and Advanced Computing Lab (ACL) is building a center of excellence for Intellectual Property (IP) applied to high-performance computing devices. This role will shape the verification of GPU subsystems for next-generation mobile GPUs, ensuring functional correctness, performance integrity, and architectural intent.

Responsibilities

• Contribute to the verification strategy and hands-on validation of complex subsystem designs.
• Develop comprehensive verification plans, defining verification goals, coverage metrics, and sign-off criteria.
• Architect and implement advanced verification environments using SystemVerilog, UVM, and C++.
• Design, develop, and maintain scalable verification testbenches.
• Develop test code in parallel with RTL, applying constrained-random testing, coverage-driven verification, and assertion-based techniques.
• Advance verification methodologies, tools, and automation to improve efficiency and quality.
• Create targeted and scalable test scenarios that stress interactions across multiple blocks, interfaces, and data paths.
• Analyze failures spanning blocks within a subsystem, identify root causes, and collaborate with design and architecture teams.
• Mentor engineers and exemplify a culture of ownership and innovation.
• Stay ahead of emerging verification technologies and methodologies.

Requirements

• 10+ years of experience with a Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science/Engineering, or 8+ years of experience with a Master’s Degree, or 6+ years of experience with a Ph.D.
• 8+ years of hands-on experience in GPU, CPU, or advanced semiconductor design verification.
• Strong understanding of computer architecture and GPU subsystem design, including block-level and subsystem-level integration.
• Strong programming skills in C/C++, Python, Perl, or equivalent.
• Strong expertise in SystemVerilog and UVM, including constrained-random testing, functional coverage, and assertions.
• Experience with building configurable UVM testbenches for reuse across design hierarchies.
• Proven track record of achieving multiple first-pass silicon success.
• Experience with contributing to verification strategy and execution for multiple subsystem blocks and verification closure across interfaces.
• Excellent debugging, analytical, and problem-solving skills.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to navigate ambiguity and influence in a fast-paced, global team environment.
• Ability to access information subject to U.S. export control restrictions or be eligible to receive government authorization.
• Agree not to disclose to Samsung any confidential or proprietary information (including trade secrets) belonging to any current or previous employer or other person or entity.
