Job Description

RISC-V International is looking for a Sail Developer to help develop the RISC-V Formal Model codebase. Part of the acceptance criteria for ratification of a RISC-V hardware specification includes the completion of the formal model deliverables for the extension seeking ratification. RISC-V has chosen Sail from the University of Cambridge as its formal modeling. RISC-V Sail both uses and depends upon the associated tools including the simulator generator.

This role will develop the Sail formal model support for the RISC-V ISA extensions and augment the Sail infrastructure to support formal model development; work with the RISC-V ISA specification document creation so that the formal model is consistently integrated into the specification and in the formal model files. Collaborate with the RISC-V Staff, with the Task Groups, Development Partners, and Cambridge Sail staff.

The expected salary range will be $12,000 to $15,000 per month based on experience.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Develop Sail Formal Model code for extensions and upstream to the RISC-V Sail repository
  • Develop assembly tests to demonstrate proper Sail implementation of the extension and/or feature as compared to the text of the specification.
  • Enhance Sail infrastructure (e.g. simulator generator functionality) to support the RISC-V Formal Model
  • Work with the RISC-V Sail ecosystem including: the RISC-V Sail maintainer, Cambridge Sail staff, RISC-V Architectural Tests efforts, RISC-V Task Groups, and RISC-V Development Partners to develop the RISC-V Sail Formal Model.
  • Work with the RISC-V Sail repository maintainer to provide priorities and oversight of RISC-V Sail development throughout the ecosystem
  • Maintain the RISC-V Sail Formal Model community including mailing lists, informational meetings, and developer training
  • Communicate status to the RISC-V Task Group Chairs and inform the greater RISC-V community of updates as appropriate

Qualifications

The following qualifications are required for consideration:

  • 5+ years software or hardware development experience
  • BS/BA in Electrical or Computer Engineering or equivalent years of experience
  • Understanding of computer architecture, privilege levels, virtual memory, formal verification, and design verification
  • Experience with strongly typed programming, such as Rust, Haskell, OCaml, F#, Scala.
  • Experience developing open source code
  • History of successful completion and maintenance of software projects
  • Experience as a hardware or software products developer with knowledge of assembly, HDL code, and RTL abstractions
  • Experience with a scripting language (preferably Python) is required.
  • Experience with SW development tools and processes (assemblers, compilers, revision control systems). Experience with git and GitHub is required.
  • Experience with measuring coverage (functional and code) of a software application.
  • The ability to respond and adapt to a highly interrupt-driven environment while maintaining focus on long-term objectives
  • Effectively manages time, sets goals, and effectively communicates status in a remote team environment
  • High level of written and verbal skills, must be concise, articulate and understandable
  • High level of attention to detail, content, and form

The following skills are preferred:

  • 10+ years software development experience
  • 5+ years developing open source code
  • Experience as an open source code base maintainer
  • Experience with the Sail programming (the ISA specification)
  • Advanced degree in CS / ECE / EE or equivalent
  • Understanding of compilers
  • Understanding of modern, automated, constrained random testing
  • Understanding of modern verification tools like Z3
  • Proficient with GitHub, Google/MSFT Suites, and Atlassian tools
  • Experience with assertion-based verification methodologies (SystemVerilog Assertions etc.)
