Pre-si Systems Intern

Intel Intel · Semiconductors · Guadalajara, Mexico

This is an internship role focused on the pre-silicon functional logic verification of silicon designs for data centers. The intern will contribute to verification plans, test benches, and environments, working with experienced engineers on validation methodologies, simulation, emulation, and debug. The role involves learning industry-standard verification flows and tools, and collaborating with design and architecture teams.

What you'd actually do

  1. Contribute to the functional logic verification of silicon designs to ensure compliance with specifications.
  2. Support the development of verification plans, test benches, and verification environments targeting full architectural coverage.
  3. Assist in simulation and emulation activities to validate functionality, analyze power and performance behaviors, and identify defects or inconsistencies.
  4. Participate in debug and root-cause analysis, helping implement corrective measures to resolve design issues.
  5. Collaborate closely with architecture and design teams to ensure functional correctness and implementation efficiency.
