With a global manufacturing footprint spanning three continents, GlobalFoundries makes possible the technologies and systems that transform industries and give customers the power to shape their markets. For more information, visit www.gf.com.\nSummary of Role:\nYou will join the Functional Safety & Cyber Security team within GlobalFoundries' IP, Software & Custom Silicon organization, working on safety architecture and safety analysis for our ARC MIPS processor IP.\nOur processor cores are certified to ISO 26262 and ship inside production automotive systems - radar, ADAS and control applications - at ASIL-B and ASIL-D. You will own the hardware safety analysis for these products, contribute to the design of safety mechanisms, and defend that work in front of automotive customers and third-party assessors.\nBeyond processor IP, you will also cover safety for Custom Silicon SoC programs, where safety analysis spans multiple IP blocks, their integration, and system-level safety mechanisms. This part of the scope is growing, and you will help shape how we approach SoC-level functional safety.\nEssential Responsibilities:\nOwn hardware safety analysis for processor IP configurations: FMEDA, DFMEA, DFA and FTA, through to external assessment.\nPerform SoC-level safety analysis for Custom Silicon programs: integration of safety elements, system-level FMEDA, and the safety concept at the SoC boundary.\nAnalyze dependent failures and freedom from interference across IP boundaries within an SoC.\nDerive and track safety metrics (SPFM, LFM, PMHF) and drive diagnostic coverage improvement together with the STL and verification teams.\nDefine and review safety mechanisms at RTL level - ECC, parity, lockstep, register protection, watchdog - and verify they meet the claimed diagnostic coverage.\nPlan and interpret fault injection campaigns, and reconcile fault simulation results against the FMEDA.\nProduce and maintain safety work products: safety manual, safety analysis reports, safety case contributions, and assumptions of use.\nMaintain traceability from safety requirements through design to verification evidence.\nSupport ISO 26262 assessments and respond to customer technical questions on safety architecture and analysis.\nOther Responsibilities:\nPerform all activities in a safe and responsible manner and support all Environmental, Health, Safety & Security requirements and programs.\nRequired Qualifications:\nMaster's or Bachelor's degree in Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Computer Engineering or a related field.\n8+ years of ASIC/SoC design or verification experience, with substantial time spent on functional safety.\nUnderstanding of FMEDA, DFMEA and DFA for complex digital IP.\nUnderstanding with SoC-level integration and system-level safety concepts.\nAbility to read and analyze RTL (Verilog/SystemVerilog) and reason about microarchitecture - pipelines, caches, register files, memories.\nUnderstanding of processor architecture, and how safety mechanisms are realized within it.\nFamiliarity with synthesis and DFT results as inputs to safety analysis (area back-annotation, test coverage).\nStrong debugging and troubleshooting skills.\nExcellent communication skills, autonomy, and the ability to run several activities in parallel.\nPreferred Qualifications:\nFunctional safety certification or formal training (ISO 26262 / IEC 61508).\nExperience as a Safety Element out of Context (SEooC) supplier, or integrating SEooC IP into an SoC safety concept.\nFault simulation tooling (VC Z01X or equivalent) - we will train you on our specific flow.\nScripting and automation (Python, TCL) - our FMEDA flow is script-driven.\nSimulation and debug tools (VCS, Verdi); FPGA design flow.\nRequirements management tooling (Jama) and safety traceability practice.\nLow-power design and UPF.\nISO/SAE 21434 cybersecurity, or IEC 61508 in industrial applications.\nExperience with automotive tier-one customers.\nRISC-V architecture.\nExpected Salary Range\nThe exact Salary will be determined based on qualifications, experience and location.\nIf you need a reasonable accommodation for any part of the employment process, please contact us by email at  let us know the nature of your request and your contact information. Requests for accommodation will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Please note that only inquiries concerning a request for reasonable accommodation will be responded to from this email address.\nAn offer with GlobalFoundries is conditioned upon the successful completion of pre-employment conditions, as applicable, and subject to applicable laws and regulations.\nGlobalFoundries is fully committed to equal opportunity in the workplace and believes that cultural diversity within the company enhances its business potential.
