TL;DR · Senior Memory Controller Verification Engineer

The Senior Memory Controller Verification Engineer joins the GPU Memory Subsystem IP verification team to ensure functional correctness and performance for complex design units. In this role, you will partner with design and architecture teams to make implementation choices, craft verification test plans, and maintain regressions to close coverage. Daily responsibilities include developing verification infrastructure such as testbenches, BFMs, checkers, monitors, and randoms while driving test plan execution for planned features. You will utilize SystemVerilog and UVM based methodology alongside tools like VCS, Debussy, and GDB. Candidates should possess experience with dynamic memory controllers including DDR, LPDDR, HBM, or GDDR. The work involves verifying RTL, enabling FPGA and software teams, and participating in post-silicon verification and debug for GPU and AI technology.

What you'll do

  • Develop verification infrastructure including testbenches, BFMs, checkers, monitors, and random generators.
  • Create and drive the execution of test plans for planned IP features.
  • Develop and execute performance test plans to meet specific IP requirements.
  • Ensure full code and functional coverage of all verified RTL.
  • Coordinate with FPGA and software teams to ensure comprehensive software testing.
  • Plan for and participate in post-silicon verification and debugging activities.
  • Sign off on design functional correctness and performance expectations.

What we're looking for

  • BS / MS or equivalent experience.
  • 6+ years of ASIC verification experience of complex design units.
  • Background with System Verilog and UVM based methodology for ASIC verification.
  • Exposure to design and verification tools such as VCS, Debussy, or GDB.
  • Strong C/C++ programming experience (preferred).
  • Prior Design or Verification experience of dynamic memory controllers (preferred).
  • Scripting knowledge in Python, Perl, or shell (preferred).
  • Strong debugging and problem solving skills (preferred).
