Space Exploration Technologies Corp. Sr. SOC Emulation Engineer (Silicon Engineering) in Redmond, Washington

SpaceX was founded under the belief that a future where humanity is out exploring the stars is fundamentally more exciting than one where we are not. Today SpaceX is actively developing the technologies to make this possible, with the ultimate goal of enabling human life on Mars. SR. SOC EMULATION VERIFICATION ENGINEER (SILICON ENGINEERING) At SpaceX we're leveraging our experience in building rockets and spacecraft to deploy Starlink, the world's most advanced broadband internet system. Starlink is the world's largest satellite constellation and is providing fast, reliable internet to millions of users worldwide. We design, build, test, and operate all parts of the system - thousands of satellites, consumer receivers that allow users to connect within minutes of unboxing, and the software that brings it all together. We've only begun to scratch the surface of Starlink's potential global impact and are looking for best-in-class engineers to help maximize Starlink's utility for communities and businesses around the globe. We are seeking a motivated, proactive, and intellectually curious engineer who will work alongside world-class cross-disciplinary teams (systems, firmware, architecture, design, validation, product engineering, ASIC implementation). In this role, you will be developing cutting-edge next-generation FPGAs and ASICs for deployment in space and ground infrastructures around the globe. These chips are enabling connectivity in places it has previously not been available, affordable or reliable. Your efforts will help deliver cutting-edge solutions that will expand the performance and capabilities of the Starlink network. RESPONSIBILITIES: Architect, create, deploy and maintain verification testbenches to apply hardware based emulation in finding pre-silicon bugs at subsystem and SoC levels Port ASIC and IP RTL code to prototyping and emulation platforms Develop all aspects of emulator implementation, emphasizing on design partitioning, synthesis, PnR, timing, and making tradeoffs between capacity and performance Debug and root-cause failures efficiently in a time-constrained environment. Identify emulation hardware and environment issues from silicon design issues Work closely with multi-disciplinary teams - RTL designers, DV folks, system architects, SW teams to bring up the SoC in emulation Apply knowledge in developing methodologies and strategies for automated debug and performance measurement, working closely with tool vendors as needed Integrate and debug external target interfaces like UART/JTAG/SPI/I2C Integrate 3rd party Accelerated VIPs and Fast Models into emulation platform Integrate 3rd party IP for post-silicon debug support and verify functional correctness Leverage emulation capabilities for post-silicon validation bring up and production ramp Develop and maintain automation/build scripts (Python, Make, JSON) BASIC QUALIFICATIONS: Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering or computer science 5+ years of experience with design verification or emulation PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE: Experience with emulation technologies and methods e.g. simulation acceleration, in-circuit emulation, speed bridges, virtual prototyping, hybrid methods Experience with hardware emulation/FPGA Platforms and tools (Veloce, Palladium, Zebu, and/or proFPGA, Protium, HAPS) Experience with design verification and SystemVerilog, UVM, and C/C++ verification environments Working knowledge of DDR, PCIe, SPI, Ethernet, UART, eMMC, I2C Knowledge of ARM processors and standard Bus protocols such as AXI, ACE, CHI, APB and AHB Experience with SystemVerilog and C++ to model RTL components and transactors Experience with post-silicon bring up, debug and reproducing issues on emulator Experience with high performance SystemC/TLM modeling for emulation acceleration (UVM acceleration, C/
