With Professional Experience

1 / 23 / 26

The Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft currently operates 75 institutes and research institutions throughout Germany and is the world’s leading applied research organization. Around 32 000 employees work with an annual research budget of 3.4 billion euros. The Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits IIS, located in Erlangen, is the largest institute of the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft with more than 1 200 employees.

Welcome to the Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits IIS , headquartered in Erlangen! As the largest institute within the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft, we have been conducting research for over 30 years in diverse fields such as artificial intelligence, microelectronics, sensor systems, data acquisition, signal processing, and signal transmission. Talented individuals from various engineering and natural science disciplines will find a wide range of exciting research topics under one roof. A few highlights that reflect our innovative strength include neuromorphic computing, 5G / 6G mobile communication technologies, generative AI in speech and signal processing, and X-ray imaging for e-mobility. And that’s just the beginning!

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 2026. 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.

Here's how you will make a difference

As a SoC Verification Engineer, you will play a key role in pre-silicon RTL verification of block and top-level SoC designs utilizing RISC-V architecture. Working closely with cross-functional teams, you will help shape a modern, reusable verification environment using state-of-the-art methodologies and metric-driven approaches.

Your key responsibilities :

• Understand the nuances of RISC-V architectures and industry-standard low-power architectures to build block / chip level testbenches using best-in-class verification methodologies
• Translate design specifications into comprehensive verification plans in collaboration with system architects
• Develop and maintain reusable testbenches for IP / block-level verification and support IP integration verification
• Create smart, constraint-random and directed test cases tailored to RISC-V SoCs
• Build and analyze coverage models, and refine tests to close coverage gaps
• Debug test failures, manage bug tracking, and ensure coverage closure
• Lead verification reviews to uphold coding quality and best practices in SoC verification
• Prepare, run, and evaluate regression runs
