JOB TITLE: Lead Pre-Silicon Verification & Post-Silicon Validation Architect
The Lead Pre-Silicon Verification & Post-Silicon Validation Architect joins the validation architecture team to define verification methodologies, validation strategies, and automation-ready test frameworks for next-generation server and accelerator platforms. This role involves developing coverage models, identifying validation gaps, and building scalable test content for EPYC CPUs and Instinct accelerators. Key responsibilities include implementing end-to-end test flows for firmware functionality across boot and runtime, generating requirements for simulation platforms, and executing tests to drive defect resolution. The position requires proficiency in C, C++, Python, Perl, or Bash, alongside knowledge of BIOS/UEFI, RAS features, and high-speed I/O like PCIe and CXL. Candidates must leverage generative AI tools, engineering copilots, and data-driven validation frameworks to improve productivity across the firmware verification lifecycle.
