[Permanent position] Emulation engineer

[Permanent position] Emulation engineer ❓ About SiPearl… SiPearl is the European fabless designer of sovereign secure high-performance energy-efficient CPUs for HPC, AI and data centres. These CPUs will help address strategic challenges in the fields of security, defence, medical research, energy, climate and engineering with a reduced environmental footprint. In June 25, SiPearl completed the design of the most complex CPU ever designed in Europe, Rhea1. Featuring 80 Arm Neoverse V1 cores, with 61 billion transistors, it is currently in production at TSMC. Sipearl CPUs will equip the two first European exascale supercomputers belonging to EuroHPC JU: Rhea1 will be integrated into the JUPITER machine based in Germany and Rhea2 will be part of Alice Recoque in France. Incubated within the European Processor Initiative (EPI) consortium and seed-funded by the European Union, SiPearl employs almost 200 people in : France (Maisons-Laffitte, Grenoble, Massy, Sophia Antipolis), Spain (Barcelona) and Italy (Bologna) Following a €130 million Series A, the company has launched its Series B round. 💻 About the role At SiPearl, we are developing highly complex multi-chiplets/multi-sockets CPUs, based on latest technologies for processors, NoCs and overall architecture. Those need best in class emulation platforms, and that's what our team is proud to provide. SiPearl owns one of the biggest emulation platform in Europe (in-house), a dual Veloce StratoM+, with a total capacity of 128 boards (6BGates) and up to 30 concurrent users 24/7. We even model our physical evaluation board (BMC) to shift left the Firmware and Software development pre-silicon and validate pre-tape-out the entire software stack.
