As a Hardware Developer at IBM, you’ll get to work on the systems that are driving the quantum revolution and the AI era. Join an elite team of engineering professionals who enable IBM customers to make better decisions quicker on the most trusted hardware platform in today’s market.
As a Verification Engineer, you will be responsible for the pre-silicon functional and performance verification of our chipsets, covering the CPU core, cache/nest subsystem, memory hierarchy, and other on-silicon IP used in our next-generation IBM Power Systems and IBM Z Systems offerings. You will use state-of-the-art techniques to simulate and verify the designs of these custom microprocessor-based systems. The job uses both hardware and software engineering skills, and entails creating environments and methodologies for simulating the VHDL input, as well as analysis and problem debug. Verification is performed at various levels within the design hierarchy. A background in Computer Engineering or Electrical Engineering with strong programming skills is required.
Diversity and Inclusion are at the forefront of what makes IBM a successful company and we proactively recruit and encourage applicants from diverse backgrounds and experiences to help propel innovation and expand access to opportunity.
This diverse team is composed of IBM’s best-in-class chip development team responsible for delivering the latest silicon used in the IBM z17 and IBM Power11 line of systems. This team is primarily based in Austin, TX and Poughkeepsie, NY but is distributed across multiple geographies with teams across the US and the globe in Israel, India, Germany and others.
