CPU Design / Verification - Intern

Cpu Design / Verification - Intern

Positions are open for Co-op / internship in the areas of CPU RTL design and verification from unit level to chip level. We are looking for candidates who have taken modern CPU microarchitecture related courses.

Responsibilities

• Microarchitecture development and specification - from early high-level architectural exploration through micro architectural research and arriving at a detailed specification
• Development, assessment, and refinement of RTL design to target power, performance, area, and timing goals
• Validation - support test bench development and simulation for functional and performance verification
• Performance exploration and correlation - explore high performance strategies and validate that the RTL design meets targeted performance
• Design delivery - work with multi-functional engineering team to implement and validate physical design on the aspects of timing, area, reliability, testability and power
• Work closely with architecture and RTL designers on verifying the functionality correctness of the design
• Reviewing Architecture and Design Specifications
• Develop test plans and test environments
• Develop tests in assembly, C / C++, or vectors according to test plans
• Develop coverage monitors and analyze coverage to ensure all the test cases in the plans are covered
• Develop checkers in SystemVerilog or C-base transactors to verify the design
• Write assertions and apply formal verification to the designImplementing test benches, generating directed / constrained random tests
• Debugging failures, running simulations, tracking bugs
• Handling schedules and supporting multi-functional engineering effortAssisting in verification flows, automation scripts and regressions
