ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
JOB QUALIFICATIONS
KNOWLEDGE REQUIREMENTS
- FPGA and Digital Design Expertise: A strong background in FPGA and digital design is essential. This includes a deep understanding of FPGA architectures, digital circuits, and RTL (Register Transfer Level) design.
- Verification Methodology: Expertise in verification methodologies, with a focus on uVM. Experience in developing and implementing uVM-based testbenches to verify FPGA designs.
- SystemVerilog and RTL Languages: Proficiency in hardware description languages like SystemVerilog is crucial, as uVM is built on top of SystemVerilog. A principal FPGA verification engineer should be comfortable with writing and analyzing RTL code.
- Verification Tools: Familiarity with industry-standard FPGA verification tools, such as ModelSim, Questa, or VCS. These tools are used to simulate and debug the uVM-based testbenches.
- FPGA Development Tools: Experience with FPGA development tools from vendors like Xilinx or Intel (formerly Altera). Knowledge of FPGA synthesis, place-and-route, and timing analysis is beneficial.
- Test Plan Development: Ability to create detailed test plans based on design specifications and requirements. This involves defining test cases and functional coverage goals.
- Verification IP (VIP): Knowledge of Verification IP usage in uVM testbenches. VIPs are pre-built verification components that help accelerate the verification process.
- Matlab Model Integration: The ability to integrate Matlab models into the FPGA verification environment.
- Debugging Skills: Strong problem-solving and debugging capabilities are essential to identify and resolve issues in the FPGA design and testbench.
- Scripting Languages: Proficiency in scripting languages like Perl, Python, or TCL can be valuable for automation and productivity improvement.
- Communication and Leadership: As a principal engineer, the ability to effectively communicate with cross-functional teams, mentor junior engineers, and provide technical leadership is vital.
- Industry Standards: 3GPP standards LTE/5G, ORAN Standard, Ethernet protocol
- Test Automation: Experience in automating the verification process using scripts and testbenches. Automation helps speed up the verification process and allows for regression testing
- ORAN Standard Knowledge: Familiarity with the ORAN standard
- 3GPP Wireless Standards: Familiarity with 3GPP wireless standards (e.g., LTE, 5G NR)
- Digital Signal Processing (DSP): Knowledge of digital signal processing concepts and algorithms is valuable
- Able to work closely with digital designers, Test engineers, Software developers, and manufacturing test to support Radio Head testing
- Knowledge of signal processing and System Verilog Assertions
LANGUAGE SKILLS
