We value collaboration, curiosity, and a commitment to solving hard problems. We are growing our team and looking for contributors of all seniorities.
In this role, you will learn Functional verification of high-performance CPUs going into industry leading AI/ML architecture. You will be mentored by and work alongside a group of highly experienced engineers across various domains of the AI chip.
This role is on-site, 40 hours, based out of Santa Clara, CA or Austin, TX.
This is for our Fall 2026 Semester
- Passionate about computer architecture and curious about how cutting-edge CPUs actually work.
- Enrolled in a BS, MS, or PhD program in EE, CE, CS, or a related field, with a strong academic record.
- Experienced with C++, SystemVerilog, or scripting languages through coursework or personal projects.
- Comfortable thinking at both the software and hardware level—including assembly and RTL.
What We Need
- Contribute to the functional verification of high-performance CPUs designed for general purpose and AI/ML applications.
- Help develop DV test plans and testbenches for both ISA and microarchitecture-level features.
- Debug RTL code and assist in making real design changes that impact chip development.
- Build tools and write stimulus code that can scale across pre-silicon to post-silicon environments.
What You Will Learn
- Get hands-on experience verifying state-of-the-art AI/ML hardware with guidance from experienced engineers.
- Explore how performance, RTL, and DV tools come together in a full-chip environment.
- Deepen your understanding of CPU design, ISA-level verification, and system-level debugging.
- Work in a real-world engineering team and gain exposure to industry-standard workflows and toolchains.
