About the role

Role focused on planning, building, and executing verification of new and existing features for AMD’s graphics processor IP to ensure a bug-free final design.

Responsibilities

  • Collaborate with architects, hardware engineers, and firmware engineers to understand the new features to be verified
  • Estimate the time required to write the new feature tests and any required changes to the test environment
  • Build the directed and random verification tests
  • Debug test failures to determine the root cause; work with RTL and firmware engineers to resolve design defects and correct any test issues
  • Analyze and enhance legacy test plans to accommodate new Design for Debug feature developments
  • Perform debug triage of failures from simulation and emulation environments for CORE and sub-level regressions
  • Develop assembly tests, C++ checkers to support new features
  • Write complex Perl scripts to update simulation files in a deterministic manner
  • Recreate post-silicon failures in pre-silicon environment
  • Debug and resolve test cases in assembly language
  • Conduct silicon debug and root cause analysis with minimal logging support
  • Scope new features and execute comprehensive test planning cycles
  • Utilize JTAG protocols for debugging and validation

Qualifications

  • Bachelors or Masters degree in computer engineering/Electrical Engineering
