As part of our elite engineering organization, you'll be at the forefront of semiconductor innovation, transforming cutting-edge concepts into the silicon that drives everything from personal devices to massive data centers and emerging edge technologies. SiG is where Intel's boldest visions become reality. We're the critical bridge between breakthrough ideas and the processors that will define the next generation of computing.

Your Mission: Architect the Future of Server Computing Step into a role where your expertise directly impacts Intel's next-generation server CPUs – the engines powering cloud infrastructure, AI workloads, and enterprise computing worldwide. Working with industry-leading process technologies, you'll help deliver the performance breakthroughs that keep Intel at the forefront of the server market.

You will be responsible for, but not limited to:

• Conducts verification of IP and/or SoC microarchitecture using formal verification tools, methodologies, and technologies based on model checking and equivalence checking algorithms.
• Creates comprehensive formal verification test and coverage plans including definition of formal verification scope, strategy, and techniques.
• Creates abstraction models for convergence on the design, carves out the right boundaries for the design, and tracks, verifies, and applies abstraction techniques.
• Develops formal proofs to implement the verification plan, reviews the completed proofs, and develops new formal verification methodologies.
• Performs convergence on design by creating formal verification methodology, abstraction, and simulation techniques.
• Finds and implements corrective measures to resolve failing tests.
• Collaborates with architects, RTL developers, and physical design teams to improve verification of complex architectural and microarchitectural features.
• Documents test plans and drives technical reviews of plans and proofs with design and architecture teams.
• Maintains and improves existing functional verification infrastructure and methodology.
• Understands the binary decision diagram (BDD) and data flow graph (DFG) for data paths and resolves the BDD complexity on arithmetic.
• Applies understanding of modeling architecture to simplify and model the problem and uses tools to formally prove protocols and architectures.
