* Job Description:

** The FPGA Emulation team in the MCU division is looking for a pre-silicon FPGA validation engineer.

As an experienced validation engineer, you will interact with design engineers in charge of different parts of our microcontrollers, define test plans and implement tests. Having good debugging and investigation skills is crucial in this role. You will also need to have a system approach and therefore consider the  microcontroller as a whole rather than the sum of its constituents.  In this role, you will work with members of other R&D disciplines (architecture, design, verification, validation, and applications) to improve the quality of our microcontrollers.

Detecting errors so early in the design phase allows them to be corrected and therefore moves towards our goal of a correct final design by construction before mass producing our microcontrollers on silicon.

What’s attractive about this opportunity:
* This position will allow you to actively participate to the design and development of new 32bits microcontrollers.
* You will deepen your knowledge on how modern microcontrollers function internally as you will have a full view on how the functional blocks are integrated together.
* You will also experience a strong international cooperation within the FPGA validation team as well as with the other design teams of the product development department.
* You get to work on communication, security, and edge AI verticals

Key job responsibilities/duties include:
* From the specifications of a microcontroller, develop the test strategy and the test plans within the framework of a SoC (System-on-Chip) or an IP
* Suggest design changes as they fit customer and market needs
* Implement system level tests for specific macros
* Execute and debug tests on an FPGA prototype of a microcontroller,
* Specify and develop complex embedded firmware including RTOS such Free RTOS or Zephyr.
** Requirements/

Qualifications:

*** Bachelors with 15+ years of industry experience in software development for embedded systems.
* Strong knowledge of the C coding language, Electronics: knowledge of classic circuits, knows how to use an oscilloscope, knows how to solder on cards, comfortable reading electronic diagrams
* Working using IDEs (integrated development environment) such as MPLABX, Visual Studio Code, Keil, and IAR
* Good practical knowledge and use of one or more TCL/Perl/Python Scripting languages for the maintenance and evolution of our workflows and automation
* Fluent English (read, written, spoken): daily use
* Good ability to communicate and work closely with peers in a multi-site, multicultural organization
*
* Preferred Qualifications:

*** Knowledge of the ARM Cortex-M core family appreciated.
* Experience in the field of testing.
* Knowledge of Verilog and System Verilog languages.
* Able to run an RTL simulation.
* Experienced in using git.
* Already worked in a Linux environment.
