Dynamic Neural Accelerator AI processor IP verification for AI SoCs.
About the role
This role is part of the Artificial Intelligence Hardware Team at EdgeCortix, working closely with design and architecture teams on IP, performance, and SoC verification. The work focuses on verification environments for AI SoCs incorporating the Dynamic Neural Accelerator AI processor IP.
What you'll do
- Develop verification infrastructure including VIPs, memory models, monitors, and configurable testbenches in SystemVerilog/UVM. - Write, maintain, and debug SystemVerilog assertions. - Develop functional coverage and perform functional and code coverage analysis using coverage-driven verification methodology. - Execute ASIC power estimation and power-aware verification. - Run gate level simulations, delay modeling, and work with emulators. - Automate tool flows and the creation of result reports.
What you'll need
- 6-7 years of experience in functional verification of blocks or systems using SystemVerilog/UVM. - Experience developing full verification infrastructure from scratch and applying constraint random verification. - Experience verifying systems involving high-speed buses such as AXI4. - Verification experience with PCIe, DDR, UCIe, Ethernet, or RISC-based CPUs. - Working knowledge of emulator-based verification, gate level simulations, and delay modeling. - Strong experience debugging RTL and testbenches.
Nice to have
- Prior experience working with VIPs and verification environments that involve VIPs. - Prior experience verifying IPs or systems that include PCI-E or DDR protocols. - Experience with SoC level verification. - Experience using Continuous Integration tools such as Jenkins, Gitlab CI, or Circle CI. - Experience with formal verification techniques. - Experience with scripting languages such as Perl or Python.
