At Cadence, we hire and develop leaders and innovators who want to make an impact on the world of technology.
Role Overview:
The DV Architect is a senior technical leadership role responsible for the strategic vision and infrastructure of verification for next-generationTensilica advanced CPU coresand configurable processors. You will define the methodologies that ensure the functional integrity of highly complex instruction set architectures (ISA).
Key Responsibilities:
- Methodology Strategy:Define and own the long-term DV architecture, focusing on scalability across multiple processor variants and generations.
- Verification Infrastructure:Architect simulation testbenches in C/C++/RTL and lead the development of reusable UVM environments.
- Advanced Verification:Champion the integration of formal verification, and AI-driven coverage analysis.
- Cross-Functional Collaboration:Partner with microarchitecture, RTL design, and software teams to align verification plans with ISA requirements.
- Mentorship:Provide technical direction and set the standard for quality and metric-driven verification (MDV) across global teams.
Required Qualifications:
- B.Tech/M.Tech in ECE with 10+ years of experience in SoC/CPU/DSP verification.
- Deep expertise inSystemVerilog/UVMandC/C++for architectural modeling.
- Experience with processor integration (e.g., RISC-V or ARM) and industry-standard protocols like AMBA/PCIe.
- Expertise in scripting (Perl, Python, or Tcl) for verification flow automation.
- Proven track record in verifying complex pipelines, memory subsystems, or ISA implementations.
