Responsibilities:

THE ROLE:

As a member of verification team, you will work with leading industry tools and design & verification concepts to achieve full functional, performance & power verification closure on a variety of digital design blocks which are a part of the Graphics Core IP (GFXIP). You will work closely with architects, designers and other design verification engineers to author test plan for pre-silicon verification, planning & development of test benches to exercise the design, write detailed test plans to cover new blocks and features, drive the development of test-cases and cove points or assertions to achieve verification closure.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Work closely with the architect, RTL designers and other verification engineers to achieve verification closure within project schedules
• Be responsible for functional, power and performance verification of a block, including verification planning, execution and DV closure
• Develop and execute test and coverage plans to ensure the functional, performance and power completeness
• Create, reuse and debug test benches, verification components and tests for verification of the design
• Be expected to adopt the evolving verification methodologies used in the industry to functionally verify increasingly more complex SoC designs within aggressive, market-driven schedules, and work within the existing verification infrastructure on currently active projects

Besides a passion for modern, complex processor architecture, digital design, and verification in general, these personal qualities are essential to success in this role:

• Excellent analytical and organizational skills; Outstanding verbal & written communication
• A self-starter who excels at driving tasks to completion and enabling collaboration amongst team members
• You have strong analytical and problem-solving skills and are willing to learn and ready to take on problem
