Job Description: 

We are a fast-growing group of ASIC design and verification engineers, involved in the development of key components of Intel chips. Our team works on the most advanced solutions and future Intel products. Within the team, we have very experienced engineers covering most of the ASIC design and verification topics (from a microarchitecture definition, through design, silicon implementation, formal verification up to an advanced pre-silicon functional validation). Thanks to this, our new joiners can develop their skills in different areas and learn a lot of different methodology aspects.

Our team is split between different locations in Poland. We work based on on-site, hybrid, and fully remote models. Our team makes use of the Gdansk office, as well as a coworking space in Katowice, where everyone can meet other team members, discuss technical problems, brainstorm at a whiteboard, and feel the common goal atmosphere.

This role involves comprehensive engineering tasks related to pre-silicon validation, including verification plan creation, UVM testbench and tests development, coverage definition, and closure. You will work with the latest tools and cutting-edge methodologies powered by AI.

Key Responsibilities:

• Functional Verification: Perform functional verification of IP logic to ensure designs meet specification requirements.
• Verification Planning: Develop IP verification plans and UVM verification environments to ensure comprehensive coverage and confirm microarchitecture specifications.
• Execution and Analysis: Execute verification plans, define and run simulation models to verify designs and identify bugs.
• Debugging: Replicate, root cause, and debug issues in the pre-silicon environment, implementing corrective measures to resolve failing tests.
• Collaboration: Work closely with architects, RTL developers, and physical design teams to enhance verification of complex architectural and microarchitectural features.
• Documentation: Document test plans and lead technical reviews of plans and proofs with design and architecture teams.
• Infrastructure Improvements: Maintain and improve existing functional verification infrastructure and methodology.
• Infrastructure Definition: Participate in defining verification infrastructure and related TFMs needed for functional design verification.

Qualifications:

Minimal Qualifications:

• Master's degree in Electronics, or Electrical engineering or Computer Science engineering
• At least 4-5 years of experience in hardware pre-silicon verification for IP or SoC

• Extensive knowledge and experience with Verilog, System Verilog and UVM
• Experience with standard interfaces, e.g. AMBA-AXI/AHB/APB
• Experience with hardware features understanding, verification plan creation, coverage definition and closure
• Scripting proficiency in at least one scripting language (e.g. python, perl, bash, tcl)
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English and Polish
• Familiarity with Git revision control system

Nice to have:

• Experience with System Verilog Assertions and Formal Verification methodology
• Experience with C++/Python or other object-oriented programming language
