About The Position

APPLE INC has the following available in Austin, Texas. Debug reasons for failure for failed tests. Review weekly fails to find out the failing reason. Work with designers to revise tests in order to hit corner cases and to expose any potential bugs. Improve and add scripts to automate verification flows based on requests from the team. Work closely with the design team and run tests to verify the RTL design of the GPU is functionally correct and bug-free. Run numerous tests and look into waveforms and logs to pinpoint why any test is failing. Collect test data to ensure the tests are covering all the codes to ensure full design coverage. Create verification plans based on architectural specifications, improve overall verification workflow and automate whenever possible. 40 hours/week.
