Staff R&D Engineer

Our Silicon Design & Verification business is all about building high-performance silicon chips—faster. We’re the world’s leading provider of solutions for designing and verifying advanced silicon chips. We enable our customers to optimize their chips eliminating months off their project schedules.

R&D HW Verification Engineer

Modern IP/SoC designs pose unique challenges for the verification of large multi-core processor subsystems. There is a growing need to further advance test-generation technologies, such that test sequences are not only correct-by-construction, but moreover they cover the immense state space of the design and able apply a directed stress on the design to reveal deep hardware defects.

Synopsys is uniquely positioned in this space to drive innovation and build leading solutions across the industry.

In this role you will become part of a fast-growing team of engineers working with leading chip makers on test-generation technologies and innovative solutions.

You will become an expert in all R&D aspects of our test-generation technologies by taking part in developing the core solution architecture, participating in research-oriented initiatives, expanding to advanced CPU architectures and features, implementing test scenarios, and engaging with customer through field adoptions.

Key Qualifications

* Hands-on experience (5 years or more) in CPU/SoC verification on Hardware Platforms such as Emulation/FPGA.

* Bring-up of verification platform, implementing and running tests, driving debug work with design teams.

* Knowledge with DV methodologies and specifically with test-generation tools.

* Passion for technology innovation - exploration and engineering of new concepts/patents in this emerging technology.

* Knowledge in low level software (embedded, kernel, OS, Assembly, C) and other programming languages: C++, Python, etc.

* Effective teamwork and excellent communication with global teams and 3rd parties

Preferred Experience
