GPU IP Verification Engineer

Job Title

GPU IP Verification Engineer

Role Summary

Develop and execute verification plans, testbenches, and system simulations to validate graphics IP (3D graphics and media). Collaborate with architects, RTL developers, and physical design teams to find and fix pre-silicon issues and improve verification methodology.

Work contributes directly to the reliability and performance of Intel's GPU technologies.

Experience Level

Entry-level / Early career - approximately 2–3 years of relevant experience (per posting).

Responsibilities

Key responsibilities include:

• Design, develop, and implement scalable, reusable IP verification plans and testbenches aligned to graphics microarchitecture specifications.
• Execute system-level simulations to analyze power, timing, and functionality; identify and resolve bugs.
• Debug presilicon issues, perform root-cause analysis, and implement corrective actions.
• Collaborate with GPU architects, RTL developers, and physical design teams to improve verification methodologies.
• Document verification plans, run technical reviews, and maintain functional verification infrastructure.
• Define verification infrastructure and methodologies for complex architectural and microarchitectural features.

Requirements

Must-have skills and experience:

• Proficiency in RTL design using Verilog or VHDL and UVM concepts for testbench development (sequences, drivers, scoreboards).
• Strong foundation in digital electronics, embedded systems, computer architecture, and microprocessor fundamentals.
• Experience with scripting languages such as Python, Perl, or Ruby.
• Demonstrated problem-solving, debugging, and technical analysis skills in presilicon environments.

Nice-to-have:

• Familiarity with verifying media IPs (video codecs: HEVC, AVC, AV1), memory fabric validation, or GPU sub-IPs.
• Awareness of media industry trends and related technologies.
• Strong communication and teamwork skills to collaborate across technical teams.

Education Requirements

Bachelor's degree in Electronics, Computer Science, Embedded Systems, or a related technical field is stated. The posting also allows skills to be demonstrated via internships, academic projects, coursework, or hands-on training; it specifies ~2–3 years of relevant experience. No explicit Master's or PhD requirement is mentioned.
