Full Job Description

We are seeking a strong technical R&D contributor to join the Xcelium team, which develops Cadence’s industry-leading logic simulator. Our team builds advanced multi-core technologies within Xcelium, including Distributed Simulation, Multi-Core Checkers, and Xcelium multi-core technology for gate-level verification.

This role will focus primarily on Xcelium Distributed Simulation and Multi-Core Checker technologies, delivering solutions for top-priority customers and generalizing them into scalable, production-quality capabilities for broader customer adoption. The successful candidate will work on core simulator infrastructure and multi-core simulation technologies, with a strong emphasis on performance, correctness, and predictability.

Xcelium Distributed Simulation Development

Design, implement, and maintain Xcelium Distributed Simulation capabilities that enable a single simulation to be distributed across multiple processes running on different machines while communicating and behaving as one coherent simulation.
Improve usability and optimize performance for distributed simulation by simplifying configuration, setup, and diagnostics, and by implementing targeted optimizations for top-priority customer scenarios.

Multi-Core Technologies

Contribute to the development and integration of Multi-Core Checkers, a technology that speeds up simulation by offloading checker modules to different cores while preserving simulation correctness.
Participate in enhancements to Xcelium multi-core technology, including critical bug fixes, performance optimizations, and usability improvements.
Contribute to Xcelium multi-core RTL technology for extending the existing technology to accelerate RTL designs.

Customer-Driven R&D and Productization

Translate requirements from top-priority customers into robust, scalable technical solutions that address real-world simulation challenges and are suitable for a wide range of Xcelium users and design environments.
Collaborate closely with product engineering, field application engineers, customer-facing teams, and senior R&D stakeholders to analyze issues, define solutions, and drive successful adoption.

Performance, Scalability & Usability

Analyze performance bottlenecks in distributed and multi-core simulation flows and implement optimizations that improve runtime, scalability, and resource utilization.
Improve user experience through clear error reporting, practical defaults, automation opportunities, and documentation-friendly workflows.

Quality, Debuggability & Production Readiness

Develop high-quality code with attention to correctness, maintainability, diagnostics, regression coverage, and long-term product support.
Investigate complex functional, performance, and customer-reported issues across distributed simulation, Multi-Core Checkers, and related Xcelium multi-core technologies.
Work with product validation teams to define meaningful test coverage and regression strategies.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

Partner with local and global R&D teams to align architecture, implementation, and delivery plans across Xcelium multi-core technologies.
Participate in technical reviews, design discussions, debugging sessions, and customer-driven planning activities.

Technical Ownership

Take ownership of significant feature areas from investigation and design through implementation, validation, delivery, and follow-up support.
Contribute to technical documentation, internal knowledge sharing, and best practices for distributed simulation, Multi-Core Checkers, and Xcelium multi-core development.
Stay current with advanced verification workloads, large-scale SoC simulation requirements, and emerging needs in high-performance simulation technology.

Task Management & Agile Execution

Coordinate team-level task management through Jira boards by organizing work, maintaining priorities, tracking progress, and ensuring alignment with project and release objectives.
Drive sprint execution by facilitating planning, prioritization, and progress reviews, while helping identify risks, remove blockers, and improve team predictability and delivery efficiency.

Requirements:

Bachelor’s or master’s degree in computer science, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related technical discipline.
10+ years of hands-on software development experience in complex C/C++ systems, preferably in EDA, simulation, compilers, runtime systems, or high-performance computing.
Strong understanding of multi-threaded, multi-process, or distributed software architectures, including synchronization, communication, debugging, and performance analysis.
Experience developing performance-sensitive infrastructure where scalability, correctness, reliability, and usability are critical.
Good knowledge of Linux development environments, debugging tools, source control, build systems, and regression-driven development practices.
Familiarity with SystemVerilog, Verilog, UVM, logic simulation, or semiconductor verification flows is highly desirable.
Experience with EDA simulation technologies, distributed or multi-threaded systems, and inter-process communication is a strong advantage.
Strong analytical and debugging skills, with the ability to investigate complex technical issues across large codebases and customer environments.
Excellent communication skills in English, with the ability to collaborate effectively with global R&D, product engineering, field, and customer-facing teams.
Self-motivated, detail-oriented, and comfortable taking ownership of challenging technical problems from concept to production deployment.

Pay: $100,000.00 – $180,000.00 per year
