Who We Are

The Server Emulation CoE (Center of Excellence) Team is seeking a motivated and highly skilled Emulation Engineer to enable, validate and support emulation models and testbenches for validating the next generation of complex server SoCs.

Hardware emulation has become an indispensable validation tool for large and complex SoCs targeting data center, networking, AI, and supercomputing applications. Our team has an opportunity for you to participate in creating and using leading edge validation technology related to emulation.

In this role, you will work with cross-functional teams - including model builders, RTL developers, software tools team and BIOS developers to gain a deep understanding of SoC micro-architecture and architecture in order to define emulation platform requirements and to develop and scope test plans, bring up SOCs on emulation, root cause SoC/Processor test fails and emulator environment issues. You will also be involved in executing test plans, which include content/tool development, test failure debug, and ensuring functionality as per specifications.

Who You Are

Your solid design, debug, communication, and teamwork skills will be essential. Additionally, you will be responsible for inventing solutions to improve the effectiveness of the Emulation platform with respect to stimuli, debug and stress.
