Job Description
Title: Pre-Silicon Functional Validation Engineer - SIMICS
Location: San Jose, California
Duration: 18 Months
Onsite to start and can go remote after ramping up
Required Skills:
- Possess a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering and/or Computer Engineering and/or Computer Science with 4 years of experience in the area of either hardware design or verification.
