CPU Pre-Silicon Verification Engineer

Develop and execute pre-silicon validation plans to verify Intel CPU core designs before manufacturing. Validate CPU functionality and microarchitecture behavior across simulation, emulation, and FPGA environments, create validation content and coverage-driven test scenarios, and review design changes for validation impact. You’ll perform debug and root-cause analysis, enhance automation frameworks and validation tools, and publish results to improve future processor designs—collaborating closely with architecture, RTL, verification, and platform teams.
