Project Role : Emulation Engineer
Project Role Description : Set up and configure emulation platforms such as Zebu, Veloce, Palladium to validate hardware designs and accelerate software testing before tape-out. Debug issues, run extensive test scenarios, and ensure the emulated system accurately mirrors the final products behavior. Collaborate with design and verification teams to optimize performance and reduce time-to-market for complex chip designs.
Must have skills : Emulation
Good to have skills : NA
Minimum 3 year(s) of experience is required
Educational Qualification : 15 years full time education

Summary:
As an Emulation Engineer, you will engage in the intricate process of setting up and configuring emulation platforms to validate hardware designs. Your typical day will involve debugging issues, running extensive test scenarios, and ensuring that the emulated system accurately reflects the behavior of the final product. You will collaborate closely with design and verification teams to optimize performance and reduce time-to-market for complex chip designs, contributing to the overall success of the project and the organization.

Roles & Responsibilities:

Virtual Platform Modeling: Develop, debug, and maintain functional simulation models for IP-level or full-system platforms using Simics.
Pre-Si Validation: Run firmware, drivers, and operating systems on virtual platforms to validate hardware functionality before tape-in.
Debugging & Troubleshooting: Use Simics capabilities (checkpoints, reverse execution, scripting) to isolate failures to either the software, firmware, or hardware model.
Performance Analysis: Analyze system performance and optimize simulation efficiency.
Automation: Create scripts (Python/Simics scripting) to automate simulation runs, regressions, and test scenarios.
Stakeholder Collaboration: Work with RTL designers, architects, and software teams to debug and verify system-level functionality.


Professional & Technical Skills:
Core Experience: 4–6 years of experience in pre-silicon verification, simulation, or emulation.
Simulation Tools: Strong hands-on experience with Intel Simics or similar virtual platform technologies (e.g., QEMU, SystemC).
Technical Knowledge: Deep understanding of computer architecture (CPU, memory controllers, IO protocols) and OS concepts.
Programming Languages: Proficiency in Python (for automation/scripting) and C/C++ (for modeling).
Debugging Skills: Proficient in using debuggers (GDB/Simics Debugger) and analyzing low-level software/hardware interactions.

Additional Information:

- The candidate should have minimum 5 years of experience in pre-Silicon (Pre-Si) Simics Simulation Engineer.
- This position is based at our Bengaluru office.
- A 15 years full time education is required.
