TL;DR :) Digital Design Verification - Application cores - CodAL - RISC-V ISA - Processor Microarchitecture - OOP - Linux-capable cores - CPU - Start-up culture - Soft IP Locations: Spain (Barcelona) Department: Spanish Design Center Employment Type: Full-Time Flexible working hours, including working from home Experience: Mid-Senior Level WHY WE ARE HIRING: Codasip keeps expanding, diversifying as well as improving the verification domain, so we are happy to present a vacant HW Verification Engineer position in our Spanish Design Center. Moreover, our teams are developing High-Performance RISC-V application processors, including multiple-issue and/or multi-core architectures Besides, once you join Codasip, you will act in daily concert with our Director of Verification - Philippe Luc from the French Office as well as our DV engineers from the UK, France, Greece, Czech Republic, Poland. YOUR CORE RESPONSIBILITIES WILL BE: Verify modern RISC-V processors and their components to raise the quality of our deliverables Create a pre-silicon verification environment, automated tests, and checkers Design generic solutions and process automation Hunt for bugs by creating and using smart algorithms Come up with and realize your own ideas on how to improve, automate or upgrade our technologies on even higher level (you will definitely get our support) Requirements YOU NEED TO POSSESS THE FOLLOWING KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS: Passion for electronics or embedded SW Experience with Hardware verification (VHDL/Verilog simulation, Formal or UVM) Knowledge of versioning tools (Git -preferred) Practical usage of Linux Software writing skills (C++ or Python preferred) Experience in Object-Oriented Programming Communicative English. Our team is highly distributed, so English is the main language Eagerness to think outside the box Self-organization and reliability NICE-TO-HAVES: Desire to play a role in shaping the RISC-V world of tomorrow Knowledge of HDL languages (Verilog, VHDL, or System Verilog) DIY activities related to open-source software, home automation, robotics, or similar University degree in a related field (Microelectronics, HW design, Embedded SW, Robotics or similar) Benefits HOW YOU CAN BE ENRICHED: Opportunity to work with RISC-V, computer architecture of the future Working on innovative IoT processors and unique processor optimization technology Participation in the whole development process from analysis to deployment Opportunity to collaborate with experienced developers located in the UK, France, Greece, Germany, Spain, Poland, and the Czech Republic Learn and enhance our verification methodologies, using combinations of assertions, random instruction stream generators, online and offline checkers, best-in-class formal tools, various coverage metrics, architecture compliance testing, etc. WHO IS CODASIP: Codasip was founded on a simple belief – we could bring together the brilliance of microprocessor architects and software engineers and capture it in tools that make the design simpler, faster, and less expensive. The company was created in 2014 with the mission of democratizing processor design by utilizing our own CodAL architecture description language. Nowadays Codasip is a leading supplier of processing solutions for IC designers, offering products based on open standards such as the RISC-V ISA, LLVM, and UVM. We are a founding member of RISC-V International (formerly RISC-V Foundation) and we were the first company to offer a commercial RISC-V IP core in 2015. With almost 200 employees and offices in Europe, the US, and China, we are constantly open for talents who want to work on cutting-edge processor technologies, believe in the great potential of RISC-V. WHAT IS OUR COMPANY CULTURE: We celebrate a highly professional and open environment, with a well-balanced mix of young and experienced engineers. We employ agile methodologies to bring the speed and ease of software development to hardware as well as to guarantee the high quality of our products. A perfect platform for growth, that will enable you to learn from the best and at the same time drive your own ideas - that is the Codasip DNA.
