E-Core/Quark CPU Pre-Silicon Validation Design Engineer

Responsibilities

• Performs functional verification of CPU logic to ensure design will meet specification requirements.
• Develops IP verification plans, test benches, and the verification environment to ensure coverage and confirm CPU microarchitecture specifications.
• Executes verification plans and defines and runs system simulation models to verify the design, analyze power and timing, and uncover bugs.
• Replicates, root causes, and debugs issues in the presilicon environment.
• Finds and implements corrective measures to resolve failing tests; collaborates with CPU architects, RTL developers, and physical design teams to improve verification of complex architectural and microarchitectural features and to meet functional, performance, and power goals.
• Documents test plans and drives technical reviews of plans and proofs with design and architecture teams.
• Maintains and improves existing functional verificatio...
