About the role
MediaTek is hiring a Design Verification Engineer for its processor/CPU development team in Bengaluru, focused on verifying ISA and micro-architecture features of CPU designs. The work spans testbench and DV environment development, stimulus and coverage generation, and verification across pre-silicon, emulation, and post-silicon domains. This role partners with CPU architects to build test and coverage plans, execute verification plans, and track DV progress using bugs and coverage metrics.
What you will do
- Work with CPU architects to get understand processor micro-architecture
- Develop detailed test and coverage plans for ISA and micro-architecture features
- Design and develop component, block and core level testbenches including stimulus engines, microarchitectural models, checkers
- Build architectural tools for ISA level verification
- Develop stimulus generators that scale from pre-silicon to emulation and post-silicon domain
- Execute verification plans, including DV environment bring-up, regression enabling for all features under your care, debug of the test failures
- Track and report DV progress using a variety of metrics, including bugs and coverage
Skills used in this role
What the employer is looking for
- Preferably BE/B.Tech/ME/M.Tech in EEE/ECE/CSE with 5-12 years of relevant industry experience.
- Should have experience in verification methodology.
- Architecting and development of testbench, test-bench components for ISA features, clock/reset/power features of processor.
- Strong assembly and CPU (x86/ARM/RISC-V) architecture knowledge.
- Strong in C, C++, Verilog, and scripting (Perl, Python) languages.
- Ability to work independently and across geographies
Preferred qualifications
- Deep knowledge in processor verification function and architecture, in areas such as cache coherence, memory ordering and consistency, prefetching, branch prediction, renaming, speculative execution, and memory translation
- Knowledge in Random Instruction Sequencing (RIS) and testing associated as block/unit and chip level for proving correctness
- Have lead a small team of verification engineers doing CPU verification
- Advanced techniques such as formal, assertions, and silicon bring up a plus
- Experience in writing test plans, portable benches, transactors, and assembly
- Experience with many different verification methodologies and tools such as simulators, coverage collection, gate level simulation
- Able to develop test bench and work independently on a block/unit of the design
Benefits and support
- Compensation and benefits are detailed in the job posting
