Position Summary
You will work closely with architecture, RTL design, analog/mixed-signal, firmware, FPGA, emulation, and program teams to deliver high-quality silicon. In this role, you will serve as both a hands-on technical contributor and a verification leader, helping establish best practices and guiding other engineers through challenging verification efforts.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead verification strategy, planning, and execution for complex ASIC, SoC, subsystem, IP, and FPGA designs.
- Define verification architecture, testbench structure, verification plans, coverage models, and signoff criteria.
- Develop and maintain scalable verification environments using SystemVerilog, UVM, assertions, constrained-random testing, and directed testing.
- Create and review verification plans, functional coverage models, scoreboards, monitors, checkers, sequences, and reusable verification components.
- Drive verification closure using functional coverage, code coverage, assertion coverage, regression results, and bug metrics.
- Lead debug of complex failures across RTL, testbench, firmware, gate-level simulation, emulation, and system-level environments.
- Collaborate closely with architects, RTL designers, analog/mixed-signal engineers, firmware developers, and project leads to ensure complete and efficient verification.
- Serve as the verification technical authority in customer architecture and signoff reviews.
- Provide effort estimation and verification staffing input for proposals and new program pursuits.
- Mentor junior and senior verification engineers through technical reviews, methodology guidance, and hands-on debug support.
- Improve verification productivity through automation, scripting, reusable infrastructure, and methodology enhancements.
- Evaluate and apply industry-standard tools and methodologies, including simulation, formal verification, emulation, FPGA prototyping, and verification management tools.
- Support project planning by estimating verification scope, identifying risks, tracking progress, and communicating status to technical and program leadership.
Qualifications
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field.
- Typically 12+ years of ASIC, SoC, or FPGA design verification experience, with demonstrated ownership of complex verification efforts.
- Expert-level experience with SystemVerilog and UVM.
- Strong background developing block-level, subsystem-level, or SoC-level verification environments.
- Experience creating verification plans, coverage models, constrained-random tests, directed tests, assertions, and regression strategies.
- Strong understanding of verification closure, including functional coverage, code coverage, assertion coverage, bug triage, and signoff methodology.
- Hands-on debug experience with complex RTL and testbench issues.
- Proficiency with scripting and automation using languages such as Python, Perl, Tcl, shell scripting, or Make.
- Experience with industry-standard EDA simulation, debug, coverage, and verification management tools.
- Strong technical leadership skills, including experience mentoring engineers and guiding verification execution.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
- Ability to collaborate effectively across architecture, design, verification, analog, firmware, FPGA, and program teams.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience with high-speed interfaces and protocols such as PCIe, CXL, DDR, LPDDR, Ethernet, USB, MIPI, AMBA, AXI, CHI, or UCIe.
- Experience contributing to proposals, scoping, or technical pre-sales in a design-services context
- Experience with formal verification, assertion-based verification, or property checking.
- Experience with gate-level simulation, low-power verification, UPF/CPF, reset verification, or X-propagation analysis.
- Experience with emulation, FPGA prototyping, hardware/software co-verification, or post-silicon bring-up support.
- Familiarity with mixed-signal verification methodologies.
- Experience working in customer-facing engineering environments or design services organizations.
