## Description

Siemens EDA is looking for a software development engineer to work in the Hardware Assisted Verification (HAV) division. HAV develops and manufactures emulators for functional verification of System-on-Chip circuit designs. In emulation systems, custom software compiles a circuit design's high level description into a low level binary representation that can be loaded and run on the emulation hardware. The individual that fills this position will become a member of emulator compiler specialists developing the compiler software for Siemens EDA's next generation emulators.
The Software Development Engineer will have responsibilities in development and improvement of the part of the compiler that analyzes the customer design in order to map it on the emulator resources. This includes analysis of clock and data networks, partitioning, placing and synthesis of logic to support the mapping of the customer design onto the emulator. The individual will participate in design and implementation of new functionality for this part of the compiler as well as support current functionality. The work will be mostly in C++ on Linux. They will write system level tests that use software simulation as well as develop new testing methods. This position will include interaction with other software teams as well as Veloce hardware teams in an international, multi-site, development environment. Candidates must be able to work on-site from our Burlington, MA office.
