MatX's mission is to make the world’s best AI models run as efficiently as allowed by physics, bringing the world years ahead in AI quality and availability. MatX is seeking silicon verification engineers to join our team as we create best-in-class silicon for high-performance and sustainable GenAI. Successful candidates for these roles will be responsible for delivering performant and functionally accurate silicon for MatX products across compute, memory management. High-speed connectivity and other key technologies.
Responsibilities include:
- Contribute to MatX’s verification methodology with a scalable solution across blocks, subsystems, fullchip and system-level validation
- Own portions of verification execution at subsystem and chip-level and create testbenches, tests and related artifacts to achieve structural and functional coverage closure
- Plan and drive intermediate and sign-off reviews on verification test plans, execution progress and verification closure towards various silicon milestones including design freeze and tapeout
Requirements:
- Concept-to-silicon experience in driving verification from an architecture and/or design specification to production silicon
- Experience with SystemVerilog, Python, C/C++, Bluespec and similar scripting and programming languages for verification and silicon modeling
- Production experience with advanced verification methodologies such as UVM, assertion-based verification (ABV); experience and comfort with formal and simulated verification are required
- Production experience with creating portable tests and drivers for verification that apply to silicon validation and post-silicon debug
- Strong understanding of silicon micro-architecture and design concepts used in high-performance compute (CPUs, GPUs, accelerators), high-speed connectivity, memory management and related functionalities
- Familiarity with emulation and prototyping platforms and methodologies is a plus
- Hands-on experience with participation in silicon debug and bring-up is a plus
Compensation: The US base salary for this full-time position is $120,000 - $400,000 + equity + benefits
