CPU Verification Fellow, RISC-V High-Performance Processor

Highlights

• Lead verification strategy for next-gen RISC-V high-performance processors.
• Guide processors from early design through tapeout to post-silicon validation.
• Verify advanced CPU features like coherency, virtual memory and vectors.

Ideal candidate

A seasoned CPU verification leader who loves complex microarchitecture and guiding large teams from early design to silicon while mentoring engineers and driving best practices.

Requirements

• Deep experience verifying high-performance superscalar CPUs, including out-of-order and speculative processors
• Strong knowledge of RISC-V architecture including ISA compliance, privileged architecture, virtual memory, atomics, vector extensions and memory model
• Highly proficient in SystemVerilog, UVM, constrained-random verification, assertions, functional coverage and advanced debug
• Hands-on experience with CPU reference models, instruction generators, ISS-based checking or differential testing
• Practical expertise with formal verification and large-scale CPU verification environments
• Ability to own verification strategy and partner across architecture, RTL, SoC, firmware, compiler and validation teams while mentoring engineers
