TL;DR · CPU Processor Power Management Verification Engineer

The CPU Processor Power Management Verification Engineer joins the processor verification team to focus specifically on Power Management and Clock Control verification. In this role, you will collaborate with architecture and RTL designers to verify functionality correctness of power management and clock control logic. Your daily responsibilities include developing and executing test plans, creating tests in Assembly, Scripts, SystemVerilog, or vectors for simulation and emulation environments, and developing coverage monitors. You will also develop checkers, write assertions, apply formal verification, and assist the silicon bringup team with FPGA and emulation testing. The role requires expertise in digital logic, microprocessor architecture, and power management techniques. Required skills include experience with Verilog/SystemVerilog based testbenches, UVM environments, Perl or Python programming, and advanced techniques like UPF and low power simulation to solve complex design verification problems.

What you'll do

  • Verify the functionality correctness of Power Management and Clock Control logic with architecture and RTL designers.
  • Develop and execute test plans and schedules for power management and clock control logic.
  • Create tests in Assembly, Scripts, SystemVerilog, or vectors to drive simulation and emulation environments.
  • Root cause failures and propose potential solutions to the design team.
  • Develop tests for emulation and FPGA environments to support silicon bringup and debug.
  • Develop coverage monitors and analyze results to ensure all test cases are covered.
  • Create checkers and SystemVerilog-based transactors to verify the design.
  • Write assertions and apply formal verification techniques to the design.

What we're looking for

  • Minimum BS degree and 10+ years of relevant industry experience.
  • Experience in digital logic, micro-processor architecture, or power management architecture.
  • Experience with digital design verification including Verilog/System-Verilog based testbenches, transactors, and checkers.
  • Experience with design verification environments like random constraint verification or UVM base testbenches.
  • Programming skills in Perl or Python.
  • Master’s degree (preferred).
  • In depth knowledge of power management architecture and design techniques (preferred).
  • Experience with SystemVerilog assertions, silicon bringup, UPF, low power simulation, formal verification, or object-oriented programming (preferred).
