We are looking for an ASIC Verification Engineer to join Bull’s innovative team.

The role involves contributing to the verification of a complex ASIC using constraint-random, coverage-driven functional verification methodologies, based on the UVM verification standard, as part of the development of ASICs such as network controllers, routers, and cache coherence controllers for high-end, high-performance Bull servers, including big data and exascale systems.

Responsibilities

• Acquire knowledge of the architecture and microarchitecture of the ASIC by studying specifications and interacting with the architecture and logical design teams.
• Participate in defining overall verification strategies and methodologies, as well as the required simulation environments.
• Develop, maintain, and publish verification specifications. Define test plans in close collaboration with the logical design team.
• Develop verification environments, test cases, and coverage models using UVM / SystemVerilog / C++.
• Track, analyze, and debug simulation errors.
• Monitor and analyze simulation coverage results and improve tests accordingly to achieve coverage targets on time.
• Submit recommendations on tools and methodologies to improve productivity.
