We are seeking a talented and detail-oriented Engineering - Verification Engineer to join our team in Bengaluru, India. You will focus on the functional verification of x86 microprocessor cores. This role offers the unique opportunity to work on cutting-edge micro-architectural designs and create verification models and plans for verifying the architecture of the X86 CPU core. Your contributions will impact products that span the global x86 market from server to desktop and laptop designs.

Responsibilities

• Collaborate with design engineers and other verification engineers to understand new CPU features to be verified.
• Build test plan documentation, accounting for interactions with other features, various design sub-units within CPU, SOC, and also hardware, firmware, and software use cases if applicable.
• Estimate time required to write new feature tests and any required changes to the test environment and tools.
• Develop directed and random verification tests.
• Understand the existing test bench setup and look for opportunities to improve it.
• Debug test failures to determine the root cause; work with RTL design engineers to resolve design defects and correct any stimulus or testbench issues.
• Use scripting and internal AI tools to come up with innovative solutions to day-to-day problems and to improve individual as well as the team's productivity.
