  • Experienced in writing test plans, building infrastructure, and debugging hardware/software flows.
  • Comfortable working with remote mentorship and distributed teams.
  • Familiar with AI-assisted tools like Copilot, Cursor, and Claude to accelerate verification.

What We Need

  • Develop and maintain SMC tests and supporting DV infrastructure.
  • Write, execute, and track test plans for chiplet and multi-chip SoC designs.
  • Use C/C++ to develop tests compiled, loaded, and executed directly on the DUT.
  • Triage, analyze, and debug issues in close collaboration with design and architecture teams.

What You Will Learn

  • Build deep expertise in system management and multi-die SoC verification.
  • Gain hands-on exposure to advanced interconnect standards like UCIe and BoW.
  • Explore co-simulation methodologies including Cocotb.
  • Learn how AI tools can accelerate test generation, infrastructure, and debug workflows.
