* Develop emulation testbenches in System Verilog and/or C/C++.

* Deliver emulation and prototyping models from RTL on industry standard emulation and prototyping platforms.

* Build and execute emulation test plan to ensure quality of the models and assist pre-silicon validation.

* Drive emulation methodologies for HW verification and SW development.

* Develop emulation tools, workflows and infrastructure in collaboration with RTL, verification, validation and SW teams for productivity during debug, runtime, and data analysis of results from emulation runs.

* Bringup and debug PCIe, DDR and generic SOC interfaces.

* Develop emulation validation components for validation efficiency in testing, debug and automation.

* Develop and drive improvements using the latest emulation technology from industry.

* Partner with vendors to debug issues and deploy new emulation capabilities.
