Full Description
Job Overview
Experience: 2-8 years
Responsibilities
You’ll be part of a team that builds complete reference systems around Arm IPs and use it for and Arm IP stress verification, giving you exposure far beyond traditional DV roles.
Integrate Arm CPU and system IPs into full reference platforms Bring up systems across simulation and emulation Debug real system issues spanning hardware + low-level software Develop system-level tests (C/C++/Assembly driven) Work closely with design, architecture, and global teams Contribute to improving verification flows, tools, and efficiency
Why This Role Stands Out
🔧 Early System-level exposure – go beyond UVM/testbench work 🧠 Strong learning curve – CPU architecture, AMBA, memory systems 🚀 High ownership – own IP integration, features, debug, and bring-up 🌍 Global collaboration – work with teams across UK, US, and Europe ⚡ Real impact – your work directly influences quality of Arm IPs.
Required Skills And Experience
2–4 years of experience in SoC/IP development or verification Solid understanding of verification fundamentals & debug Experience with C/C++ or Assembly-based testing Exposure to pre-silicon environments (simulation/emulation) Basic understanding of CPU or SoC architecture
Good to Have
Knowledge of Arm architecture / AMBA protocols Experience in embedded software or firmware bring-up Exposure to SoC integration or system-level validation Scripting in Python/Perl Familiarity with Verilog/SystemVerilog
Who You’ll Fit In Best As
You enjoy debugging and figuring out system integration problems You want to work close to real hardware and full systems You’re looking to move beyond pure DV into system understanding You take ownership and can drive tasks end-to-end
