Job Description

The team that built the innovative Silicon IP AZ1 Neural Edge that is powering the latest generation of Echo devices is looking for an SoC Emulation Engineer to continue to innovate on behalf of our customers. We are a part of Amazon Lab126 that revolutionized reading with our Kindle family of products and reimagined user experience through Echo and Alexa. We want you to help us build on the success of our first generation of ML accelerator at edge.

Work hard. Have fun. Make history.

As an SoC Validation Engineer, you will be responsible for enabling the pre-silicon and post-silicon validation verification of next generation SoCs on multiple platforms such as emulation, prototyping and early silicon. You will develop and execute test plans, design test environments and help build emulation and prototype models while working closely with architects, RTL designers, SoC and software development teams.

In this role, you will:

Develop/review subsystem testplans and help create the SoC Verification and Validation plan.
Implement tests and scenarios on multiple platforms.
Develop and deploy baremetal drivers to configure SoC subsystems
Pre-silicon activities:
Develop test benches, transactors and monitors to work with Emulation systems (ex. Zebu) and Prototyping systems (ex. HAPs)
Develop infrastructure for build and runtime of SoC emulation and prototyping models using vendor tools and
Providing training, failure debug support and improving debug capabilities
Maximize efficient utilization of the platforms through automation and other innovations
Debug and resolve issues, pioneer and deploy new platform capabilities
Post-silicon activities:
Continue pre-silicon efforts to seamlessly intersect and bring up early silicon
Port emulation and prototyping testplans to post-silicon activities
Write tests and infrastructure to ensure Performant and Functional compliance of Silicon

Basic qualifications

Bachelor’s degree or higher in EE, CE, or CS
