Senior Verification Engineer in ASIC design verification at Intel Corporation. Leading verification efforts and collaborating across teams to ensure quality in semiconductor product development.
Responsibilities
Define Project Specific Verification Strategy: Defines and implement scalable and reusable verification plans, test benches, and the verification environments for blocks, subsystems, and SoCs.
Ensure meeting the required coverage levels and conform to microarchitecture specifications.
Lead Verification Execution: Create detailed test plans and drives technical reviews with design and architecture teams to validate these plans and proofs.
Executes verification plan: Implement and run block/subsystem/cluster/soc simulation models to verify the design, analyze power and performance, and identify bugs.
Investigate and Resolve Bugs: Replicates, root causes, and debugs issues in the pre-silicon environment. Finds and implements corrective measures to resolve failing tests.
Collaborate Across Teams: Work closely with SoC architects, micro architects, full chip architects, RTL developers, post-silicon, and physical design teams to improve verification of complex architectural and microarchitectural features.
Enhance Future Verification Methodologies: Continuously improves existing functional verification infrastructure and methodologies. Absorbs learnings: From post-silicon on the quality of validation done during pre-silicon development, updates test plan for missing coverages and proliferates to future products.
Lead and mentor others: inspire and guide junior engineers, fostering their growth and development. Your expertise will be instrumental in cultivating a collaborative and innovative environment where every team member thrives.
