Memory Front End team introduction:

At Qualcomm memory team, we specialize in front-end modeling for a wide range of memory IPs. This includes various architectures such as single-port memories, pseudo dual-port designs, register files, CPU memories, and complex custom memories developed from the ground up. Each IP development undergoes comprehensive verification—covering functional, formal, BIRA, and DFT domains—and is rigorously validated through an extensive QA suite to ensure alignment with the actual memory circuit implementation

Qualifications

Masters in Electronics and communication Engineering or Electrical Engineering or related field with 0 – 2 year's experience.

In this position candidate will be part of memory FrontEnd modelling team where he/she will be responsible for below:

Design and implement behavioral models in Verilog/System Verilog for compiler-generated and custom memory components. Maintain and enhance memory compilers to ensure accurate generation of behavioral Verilog models. Develop and support LVLIB and MASIS models for memory BIST (Built-In Self-Test) applications. Create FPGA-compatible models tailored for emulation platforms. Build DFT (Design-for-Test) and Fast Scan models to support comprehensive test coverage. Execute signoff simulations for both functional and formal verification across all compiler and custom memory models. Run comprehensive QA suites to validate that all memory models accurately reflect the intended circuit implementations. Develop and maintain signoff verification tools and QA automation frameworks for memory model validation. Conduct post-release QA checks to ensure model quality and reliability. Manage customer releases, ensuring readiness and documentation. Provide support to SoC teams, assisting with debugging and resolving memory interface issues related to the models.

In this position, candidates should have below understating and hands on experience:

Strong understanding of memory architecture and functionality. Solid grasp of CMOS low-power circuit design principles. Proficient in simulation tools such as Vsim, VCS, Finesim, and CustomSim. Deep expertise in Verilog and System Verilog coding practices. Familiarity with BIST modeling frameworks like LVLIB and MASIS. Good working knowledge of CLP and Static Timing Analysis (STA). Experience with Unix, Shell scripting, Perl, and Python is a plus. Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
