We bring chip design back to Europe

For a technologically more independent Europe, we aim to develop Fraunhofer IIS into a European IC Design Center for trusted and energy-efficient high-speed ICs by 2025. As a leading competence center for digital chip design, we deliver essential cutting-edge technologies in the areas of exascale high-performance computing and trusted electronics. In addition, we offer sophisticated digital design services based on RISC-V. Our target customers are design houses, semiconductor manufacturers, SMEs, and system integrators. Potential applications are areas such as high-speed data processing, blockchain or cybersecurity. Today, our »Integrated Digital Systems« business unit develops digital circuits in CMOS technologies as System on Chip, ASIC or IP.

What you will do

As a hardware developer, you will specify, design and verify hardware components of complex ASICs and SoCs with embedded microprocessors (RISC-V) in System-Verilog. You will also work with constrained random coverage-driven testbenches using the UVM Framework. In detail, this means:

  • By performing feature extraction from register-transfer level (RTL) specifications, you will produce verification plans that are supported by metrics obtained from simulation.
  • You will also generate, maintain, and expand test benches based on the UVM framework.
  • Using your profound knowledge, you will also contribute to tasks like test development and debugging.
  • When working with a device under test (DUT), you will develop precise coverage models.
  • By writing SVA assertions and scoreboard checkers, you will ensure the correct operation of the DUT.
  • Last but not least, you will prepare, execute and analyze regression runs.
What you bring to the table
  • University degree in (electrical) engineering, IT/computer science, hardware development, industrial design or another related field
  • Fundamental understanding of digital electronics principles and ability to understand HDL models of digital circuits
  • Work experience with UVM test benches
  • Proficient with the SystemVerilog language; experience working with at least one other object-oriented languages such as Python
  • Very good English and good German language skills, independence, and commitment
