TL;DR · GPU Design Verification Engineer

JOB TITLE: GPU Design Verification Engineer The GPU Design Verification Engineer joins the GPU ASICS Engineering team to architect, design, implement, and verify the structure and performance of GPU hardware, drivers, features, applications, and tools. This role involves performing pre- and post-silicon verification to ensure correctness and meet performance and power goals. Key responsibilities include creating and maintaining verification test benches, developing advanced testing frameworks to recreate real-world system integration conditions, and building automation for continuous integration. The candidate must utilize System Verilog, UVM, Verilog, VHDL, and C/C++ to perform constrained random testing and functional coverage development. Required skills include simulation, problem solving, and debugging, with preferred experience in emulation platforms like Veloce or Palladium, as well as GFX APIs such as Vulkan and DX12.

What you'll do

  • Architect, design, implement, and verify the structure and performance of GPU hardware, drivers, and features.
  • Create and maintain verification test benches and environments using System Verilog and UVM.
  • Develop advanced testing frameworks to recreate real-world system integration conditions.
  • Execute system-level test content including directed test cases, gaming benchmarks, and standards compliance suites.
  • Build automation for continuous integration and testing based on the latest GPU IP.
  • Analyze test results using statistics and data predictions to track benchmarks and identify issues.
  • Write technical documentation and feature descriptions for projects under the direction of a supervisor.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field and 4+ years of relevant work experience.
  • Master's degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field and 3+ years of relevant work experience.
  • PhD in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field and 2+ years of relevant work experience.
  • Proficiency in System Verilog, UVM, Verilog or VHDL, and C/C++ is required.
  • Experience in constrained random, functional coverage development, and design debug is required.
  • Skills in test planning, scripting, simulation, problem solving, and debug are required.
  • 2+ years of relevant GPU experience (either external or internal) is required.
  • Experience in GPU based verification, system/sub-system level verification, or GFX API exposure is preferred.
