Principal Engineer

About This Role

Planning and executing system-level scenarios to ensure zero-bug silicon tape-out is the core of this Principal Engineer role, with an emphasis on enhancing emulation methodology and flows. The position suits a diligent leader who can work with design and verification teams, select hardware, interface with software and platform teams, and set a high-level technical vision.

Responsibilities

• Create full chip emulation and FPGA prototype models for complex automotive SoC designs
• Create the test sanity suite to validate the models, having various integrated transactors and memory models
• Develop and apply automation aids, flows, and scripts to improve emulation ease of use for the users
• Innovate improvements to emulation methodology, working with partners across other geographies
• Train and mentor engineers to deliver high quality and increase productivity
• Build strong collaboration with other R&D teams such as Design, Verification, digital IP, Design Enablement, and Validation to achieve project milestones
• Drive SoC verification using emulation (Hardware Assisted Verification), including working with design, system-architect, and verification teams to develop and execute the test plans for system-level scenarios on emulation/prototype platform
• Work with the EDA vendors to deploy next-generation emulation technologies

Requirements

• M.Tech/B.Tech Degree in Electrical/Electronic Engineering
• Minimum of 4+ years of relevant industry experience
• Emulation experience on any/all available platforms (Palladium, Protium, Veloce, or Zebu, EP) including design bring-up, build flow, debug, performance, and throughput tuning
• Experience with Verilog, VHDL complex SoC design
