• Debug test failures to determine the root cause; work with RTL and memory engineers to resolve design defects and correct any test issues
• Review functional and code coverage metrics – modify or add tests or constrain random tests to meet the coverage requirements

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:

• Proficient understanding of SRAM/ROM/ECC architecture, operation, and requirements
• Debugging RTL and creating/modifying testbenches
• Comfortable with scripting/programming languages, such as C-shell, Makefile, Perl, Python, and TCL in a UNIX environment
