About the job
Proves correctness of MatX hardware designs and compiler transformations using formal verification, model checking, and interactive theorem provers.
What you'll do
- Apply model checking and property verification to RTL blocks, memory subsystems, and interconnects.
- Develop machine-checked proofs for compiler transformations and build theorem-prover embeddings of hardware languages and simulator models.
- Collaborate across architecture, compiler, and silicon verification teams, and integrate formal tools into existing practices.
What they ask for
- Hands-on hardware model-checking experience, including writing SVA/PSL properties and completing block- or subsystem-level verification targets.
- Practical experience with at least one interactive theorem prover.
- Comfort working across RTL microarchitecture and compiler IR design.
- Ability to work in a small team with broad, shifting ownership.
Nice to have
- Experience embedding an existing language or IR into a theorem prover.
- Experience with compiler correctness proofs or verified compilation.
