Senior Design Verification Engineer

Quadric has created an innovative general purpose neural processing unit (GPNPU) architecture. Quadric's co‑optimized software and hardware is targeted to run neural network (NN) inference workloads in a wide variety of edge and endpoint devices, ranging from battery‑operated smart‑sensor systems to high‑performance automotive or autonomous vehicle systems. Unlike other NPUs or neural network accelerators in the industry today that can only accelerate a portion of a machine‑learning graph, the Quadric GPNPU executes both NN graph code and conventional C++ DSP and control code. If making an impact and having a seat at the table is important to you, this is the opportunity for you. Join our small, rapidly‑growing team at Quadric to develop supercomputer technology designed for the Edge. Our preference is for a candidate located in the California Bay Area who can regularly collaborate from our Burlingame office. From time to time, the team and company gather for onsite meetings and off‑site events. These in‑person moments are an important part of how we build relationships, collaborate effectively, and align on priorities, and participation is expected for all team members. Responsibilities Architect, and develop from scratch, a novel set of test benches for a new generation of GPNPU processors Collaborate with architects, HW & SW designers to document verification test plans Implement testbenches using commercial VIPs and/or internal SW utilities Develop directed/random drivers, assembly or C++ programs to efficiently test the design Use coverage metrics to track and communicate progress on verification Requirements At least 5 years of experience in design verification for CPU or GPUs.
