Life at Intel

We're looking for a motivated and talented engineer to join the US CPU verification team. In this role you will be critical to the development of next generation CPU's designed to power the AI revolution.

You will join the team responsible for exhaustively verifying the architecture and micro-architecture changes implemented in the CPU using a combination of dynamic and formal verification methods.
Job responsibilities include writing verification test plans, and then writing tests to execute those plans. Development of pre-silicon verification collateral (such as behavioral checkers, coverage monitors, test generators or score-boards) is often required to enable test plan execution.
On Formal front, responsibilities may include technical ownership of formal verification of a microarchitecture block, methodology, or otherwise significant aspect of the Big Core CPU, Understand and contribute to micro-architecture specification and define the formal verification strategy for a significant portion of the design, Lead ROI analysis and recommend appropriate use of formal verification vs dynamic validation techniques for relevant parts of the CPU.
Candidates will need to debug failing tests, then work with designers and architects to resolve bugs. Successful verification engineers can anticipate failure modes, and write punishing test content to stress the design and identify bugs. Candidate will analyze coverage gaps and devise strategies to fill coverage holes. The quality of the design and the final product is directly proportional to the quality of the design verification work. The job involves working with Global RTL, Arch DV and Formal teams to define verification strategy, planning and execution, driving verification methodologies etc.
Behavioral traits for this position include:
- Strong problem solving
- Tolerance of ambiguity
