Senior CPU Design Verification Engineer – CPU / SoC / SystemVerilog / UVM
We are currently partnered with a semiconductor technology organisation developing CPU and SoC architectures. They are looking to hire a Senior CPU Design Verification Engineer to work closely with CPU and SoC architects, validating microarchitectural concepts and ensuring selected areas of CPU design are thoroughly verified and ready for product launch.
The role covers verification planning, methodology development, testbench and verification environment development, regression execution, debug, and coverage tracking across a defined functional domain.
Key responsibilities
- Work closely with CPU and SoC architects to understand architectural concepts and high-level system requirements
- Develop detailed test and coverage plans based on CPU architecture and microarchitecture
- Develop scalable and portable verification methodologies across different environments
- Develop verification environments and their associated components
- Develop stimulus, checkers, assertions, trackers, and coverage mechanisms
- Develop verification plans and testbenches for the assigned functional domain
- Execute verification plans throughout the design verification lifecycle
- Perform design bring-up and verification environment bring-up
- Enable regressions covering features within the assigned area
- Debug test failures and support resolution of verification issues
- Track and report design verification progress using metrics including bugs and coverage
- Support validation of CPU and SoC microarchitectural concepts through to launch readiness
