  • Documentation: Create and maintain test plans, work with hardware teams to validate their documentation
  • Debug tooling: Build tools to debug simulations, and enable developers to debug software running on the simulator
  • Cross-functional Collaboration and Troubleshooting: Chip simulation engineers are expected to work closely with both hardware and software engineers to make sure that our simulations are accurate, and that software engineers are able to use them with a high level of productivity

Requirements:

  • Proficiency in C/C++
  • Strong understanding of low-level software engineering
  • Strong understanding of hardware engineering
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills

Nice to have:

  • Experience developing hardware or system simulations (e.g., SystemC, gem5, QEMU, or custom frameworks)
  • Experience with custom ML hardware accelerators (e.g., Google TPU)
  • Experience with firmware, kernel and driver development (e.g., Linux, FreeRTOS)
  • Experience with hardware development and verification
  • Experience with multiprocessing and multithreading
  • Familiarity with bit-accurate numerics modeling
  • Experience with performance profiling and optimization of simulation code
  • Proficiency with Python for test harness development, bazel, and git
