Engineer - Emulation and Prototyping Architect

Job Description

We are seeking highly skilled and motivated System-on-Chip (SoC) Emulation engineers to join our diverse team at Arm! Our team focuses on performance architecture and PnP analysis of Arm SoCs/SoPs (System-on-Package), System level infrastructure (SoC/SoP/Rackscale/Podscale) in pre- and post- silicon environments. Working closely with implementation teams and customers, we'develop best-in-class silicon platforms across markets such as servers, accelerators, client, infrastructure, IoT, and automotive. Responsibilities: Supporting multiple Emulation environments using the latest emulation techniques. Building early SoC platforms to facilitate performance/power analysis and debug. Able to handle/modify RTL and stitch together SoCs with standardized interfaces from scratch for bare-metal and validation OS based bringups. Collaboration with design teams to ensure the production of clean RTL code. Developing system level testbenches to implement performance and power benchmarks, simpoints and use cases in emulation platform. Integrate observation options to assemble and debug performance/power studies, correlate with pre-Si simulation/post-Si, lead larger implementation teams for emulation at later implementation phases and work with post-Si teams for analysis/tuning. Help drive innovation in model building and debugging methodologies. Collaborate with SoC Architecture team to create testplans covering all metrics for the product. Define flexible/reduced SoC configurations allowing reduction in simulation and emulation capacities, while providing accurate performance estimates. Collaborate with emulation vendors to define distributed systems to split huge SOC netlist between multiple emulation boxes. Required Skills and Experience : Experience (3-6 years) in SoC Performance verification and emulation environment bringup in the semiconductor industry. A background in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or Computer Science with an expertise in computer architecture and microarchitecture. Proficient in RTL (SystemVerilog, Verilog, VHDL), C/C++ for bare metal code, system validation using OS, test code development, strong scripting capabilities, particularly in Python, TCL, and shell scripting. Excellent communication, and interpersonal skills with ability to convey complicated solutions. Drive early and detailed performance/power analysis as an expert Emulation Architect at Arm, focusing on diverse silicon platforms Preferred experience: Experience in developing, building, and releasing large multi-billion gate hardware emulation models. In-depth knowledge of key hardware emulation vendor solutions for emulation and prototyping. Experience working with design and software teams on design verification tests, PPA workloads, and software workloads
