Programmable IP Design Validation Engineer

Job Description
Intel PSG offers a large selection of intellectual property IP cores optimized for Intel FPGA devices, all of which are developed for highest performance, lowest cost, ease of use and fastest time-to-market.The Programmable IP Engineering group is responsible for High Speed Protocol IP development, which includes participating in high-level product specifications, logic/RTL design and implementation, RTL verification, IP FPGA emulation prototyping and hardware validation using Quartus Development Kit.As an IP Design Engineer focusing on IP Verification & Validation, you will be responsible for carrying out design validation for Intel next generation IP's across the Intel FPGA IP product portfolios. The charter of IP verification & validation team is to verify and validate the IP for robust functionality from functional simulation, FPGA emulation prototyping, hardware to complex system level environment. The verification and validation areas encompass IP's for external memory interface protocols eg. DDR, HBM and high-speed transceiver protocols eg. PCIe, Ethernet, Interlaken, JESD204, UPI, Serial Lite, Serial Rapid IO. Your specific responsibilities and career experience may include but are not limited to the following:1 Create comprehensive verification and validation plan based on IP/FPGA architecture specifications and carry out all the IP validation tasks. The plan encompasses functional, system level and hardware verification and validation perspectives.2 Developing IP/subsystem/system level testbench, create tests, and necessary coverage goals based on specification to verify the implementation.3 Review verification and validation results against the coverage goals. Writing, analyzing and achieving coverage metrics with failures debugging as well as bug filling and closure.4 Work with cross-functional teams and prepare/support IP functional validation tests for IP bring-up on actual FPGA development kits using Quartus.5 Build IP FPGA emulation prototypes, creating and establishing IP subsystem/solution validation coverage strategy and standardized framework, drive system test design implementation and overall IP system validation on HW, maximize FPGA hardware capability to bring substantial improvement to IP quality & usability for Intel FPGA IP product portfolios.6 Developing verification and validation tools and flows, as needed.7 Interfacing with 3rd party vendors for latest industry tool and methodology or VIP exposure and evaluation.8 Participate in IP roadmap planning with product marketing as well as support interface to IP customer support team. 9 Apply advanced techniques to achieve verification and validation with the highest quality, productivity, and time-to-market.10 Provide practical, innovative solutions to complex problems.11 Participating in technical paper writing and publication.
