The role involves joining Apple's design verification team, focusing on the creation, deployment, and support of sophisticated emulation environments for large SoCs. You will collaborate closely with Architecture, Design, and Software teams to ensure high-quality functional products are delivered quickly. This position requires a strong understanding of emulation processes and design verification skills. You will play a key role in porting designs onto the Palladium platform and developing test plans.

• Minimum of a BS degree and 3 years of relevant industry experience.
• Understanding of the tool flow from RTL to Emulation is a huge plus.
• Good understanding of any Standard Emulator (Palladium, Veloce, Zebu) or FPGA (Xilinx, Altera) flow.
• Proven design verification skills.
• Experience in writing synthesizable SystemVerilog/Verilog code and SystemVerilog assertions.
• Experience with System Verilog verification environments including C/C++ DPI and UVM.
• Experience with writing and debugging test firmware.
• Experience in any scripting language (Perl/Python/TCL).
• Excellent analytical and debugging skills.
• Experience in UVM Acceleration is a plus.

• Collaborate closely with Architecture, Design, DV, Silicon Validation, Power, and Software teams to bring up large SoCs on the emulation platform.
• Develop and apply synthesizable monitors, checkers, and stimulus on the emulation platform.
• Prepare and complete the test plan and perform reviews with multi-functional teams.
• Perform low power testing on the emulation platform.
• Develop code for design and verification that aids with emulation activities using Verilog/System Verilog/UVM.
• Develop random stimulus infrastructure by reusing existing UVM simulation constraints.

• Employees at Apple are often offered comprehensive benefits that support physical and mental well-being—flexible medical plans, confidential counseling, onsite wellness centers at major campuses, and resources for fitness and daily life. Families typically receive fertility support, paid parental leave with gradual return, caregiving leave, and dependent-care guidance, while financial perks commonly include stock grants (with purchase discounts), 401(k) matching, and income-protection coverage.
