About the role

We are looking for an adaptive, self-motivative design emulation engineer to join our growing team. As a key contributor, you will be part of a leading team to drive and improve AMD's abilities to deliver the highest quality, industry-leading technologies to market. The Emulation Engineering team furthers and encourages continuous technical innovation to showcase successes as well as facilitate continuous career development.
An engineer who takes ownership, thrives in fast-paced development cycles, and is eager to work at the intersection of hardware and software. You are a team player who has excellent communication
Responsibilities:
- Build and bring up emulation models (RTL cleanup, synthesis, compilation, partitioning).
- Develop and integrate transactors/BFMs using C/C++, DPI, SCE-MI.
- Bring up PCIe and Ethernet interfaces in emulation (link training, enumeration, protocol debug).
- Debug emulation failures using waves, logs, and hardware traces.
- Work closely with design/DV/software teams for SoC bring-up and test execution.
- Modify/extend verification testcases when required and execute them in simulation/emulation.
- Required Skills
- Hands-on experience with Veloce and familiarity with ZeBu emulation flows.
- Solid knowledge of Verilog/SystemVerilog RTL and verification flows.
Qualifications:
- collaborating with other engineers located in different sites/timezones. The candidate should be motivated to dive deep into emulation flows, debug complex protocol issues, update/extend verification environments when required, and ensure smooth bring-up of PCIe, Ethernet, and SoC components.
- We are looking for an experienced Emulation Engineer with strong, hands-on expertise in Mentor Veloce and familiarity with Synopsys ZeBu to support complex SoC/IP validation
