The division Smart Sensing and Electronics (SSE) of Fraunhofer IIS is currently looking for contractors who can provide services as digital functional verification and digital IC-design backend experts as part of the "STXMOD" project. In STXMOD the next generation of high performance computing accelerators will be developed as a System on Chip in 12 nm silicon technology.

Within the STXMOD project a high performance computing application class specific accelerator chip for very complex multi-dimensional stencil and tensor calculations will be developed in 12 nm FinFET silicon technology. To assure the correct functionality digital functional verification on block level and over the hierarchy up to system on chip top level has to be performed. The use of Universal Verification Methodology UVM and sufficient test case and result documentation is mandatory.

Therefore, one meeting per quarter shall be performed at the Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits in Erlangen-Tennenlohe.

Furthermore, flexibility of working hours is required in order to be able to react promptly to urgent adjustments.
