About the role
The Intel Data Center and AI group drives Intel's latest AI SoCs in the world's leading process technologies, delivering data center solutions. The team develops SoC/Sub-System pre-silicon functional verification environments spanning end-to-end verification from architecture definition through PRQ and customer support. This role owns scalable testbench and verification plan development, functional logic verification, root-cause debug, and mentoring of junior engineers, including driving AI-assisted engineering workflows.
What you will do
- Define and develop scalable and reusable Block/Sub-System/SoC Test Bench and Verification Environment
- Create SoC verification plans to meet the required level of coverage and confirm to microarchitecture specifications.
- Performs functional logic verification of an integrated SoC to ensure design will meet specifications.
- Execute verification plans and defines and runs emulation and system simulation models to verify the design, analyze power and performance, and uncover bugs.
- Replicate, root cause, and debugs issues in the Pre-silicon environment. Find and implement corrective measures to resolve failing tests.
- Collaborate and communicate with SoC Architects, Micro architects, full chip architects, RTL developers, Post-silicon, and physical design teams to improve verification of complex architectural and microarchitectural features.
- Document test plans and drives technical reviews of plans and proofs with design and architecture teams.
- Maintain and improve existing functional verification infrastructure and methodology.
- Absorb learning from Post-silicon on the quality of validation done during Pre-silicon development, updates test plan for missing coverages, and proliferates to future products.
- Mentor and technically lead junior engineers.
- Incorporate and execute security activities within test plans, including regression and debug tests, to ensure security coverage.
- Drive adoption of AI-assisted engineering workflows using AI tools, MCP infrastructure, and AI-powered development methodologies.
Skills used in this role
What the employer is looking for
- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, VLSI, or Computer Engineering with 10+ years of hands-on experience in complex SoC/IP pre-silicon verification OR Master's degree in a relevant field with 8+ years of experience OR PhD with 6+ years of experience.
- Proficiency in RTL design, Verilog, and simulation/debug tools such as Verdi.
- Strong expertise in System Verilog-based verification techniques and methodologies, including UVM or OVM.
- Solid understanding of computer architecture, SoC design principles, validation tools, and methodologies.
- Knowledge of SoC high-speed IO protocols, fabric, memory coherency, and system-level flow verification.
- Proficiency in scripting languages such as Make, Perl, Python, or similar utilities.
Preferred qualifications
- Detailed knowledge on SoC Fabric Verification at SoC/Sub-System level is added advantage.
- Experience with advanced SoC verification methodologies, including emulation models and power analysis tools.
- Strong initiative, analytical problem-solving skills, and ability to multitask in a dynamic team environment.
- Excellent communication and teamwork skills to collaborate effectively across diverse groups.
