Description
At Cadence, we hire and develop leaders and innovators who want to make an impact on the world of technology.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and develop system-level AVIP solutions for emulation/prototyping platforms (Palladium, Protium)
- Build and integrate Accelerated Verification IP environments for complex SoC and subsystem validation
- Develop end-to-end verification flows including:
- AVIP integration
- Testbench and system modeling
- Bare-metal / driver-level validation
- Architect scalable solutions for multi-protocol system validation across multiple clock domains
- Optimize solutions for performance, scalability, and emulation efficiency
- Develop custom test cases, tools, and automation to enable advanced use models (embedded / co-emulation / hybrid flows)
- Work closely with cross-functional teams (PE, AE, customers) to debug and resolve system-level issues
- Contribute to next-generation AVIP methodology evolution, including integration with AI/ML-based verification flows
- Support customer enablement, including bring-up, debug, and solution deployment
Required Qualifications
