Job Description and Requirements

We Are:

At Synopsys, we drive the innovations that shape the way we live and connect. Our technology is central to the Era of Pervasive Intelligence, from self-driving cars to learning machines. We lead in chip design, verification, and IP integration, empowering the creation of high-performance silicon chips and software content. Join us to transform the future through continuous technological innovation.

 

You Are:

You are an enthusiastic and detail-oriented SoC RTL Performance Verification Engineer with a passion for developing and deploying verification solutions for System on Chip (SoC) designs. With a strong background in RTL hardware design and verification, you excel in using industry-standard languages like Verilog and SystemVerilog. Your expertise in developing ZeBu emulation-based verification IP (transactor) and solutions makes you a valuable asset to any team. You thrive in dynamic environments, tackling complex problems creatively while adhering to company policies and procedures. Your communication skills are exemplary, allowing you to work effectively with both internal teams and external clients. With a deep understanding of protocols like AMBA AXI/CHI and proficiency in UNIX and scripting, you bring a comprehensive skill set to the table, ready to make an impact in the rapidly evolving field of SoC performance verification.

 

What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Developing SoC Performance Validation (PV) flow and components (transactor model and CI/CD automation) on ZeBu emulator.
  • Creating emulation-based transactor and solutions using SystemVerilog and C++.
  • Providing technical support and guidance to customers during the deployment of the ZeBu emulator.

 

The Impact You Will Have:

  • Ensuring the reliability and performance of customer SoC designs through rigorous validation processes.
  • Enhancing the capabilities of the ZeBu emulator transactor to meet evolving industry standards and customer needs.
  • Contributing to the development of innovative SoC PV solutions that set Synopsys apart from competitors.
  • Supporting customers in achieving their design and performance goals, thereby strengthening Synopsys' market position.
  • Driving continuous improvement in SoC PV methodologies, leading to more efficient and effective processes.
  • Fostering collaboration and knowledge sharing within the team, enhancing overall performance and innovation.

 

What You’ll Need:

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field (RTL design/verification) with a minimum of 12+ years of experience.
  • A solid understanding of the SoC architecture among HW IPs, AMBA system buses, and LPDDR memory controllers in a mobile AP.
  • Proficiency in developing emulation-based transactor models and solutions using SystemVerilog and C++.
  • Proficiency with UNIX and scripting.

 

The Team You’ll Be A Part Of:

You will be part of a dynamic and innovative team focused on developing and deploying cutting-edge verification solutions for SoC designs. The team values collaboration, continuous learning, and a commitment to excellence, working together to drive technological advancements and deliver exceptional results for our customers.
