H-1B Visa Design Verification Jobs
Design Verification engineers validate that hardware performs to specification before production, making the role a strong fit for H-1B sponsorship as a specialty occupation requiring at least a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering or a related field. Semiconductor, aerospace, and consumer electronics employers sponsor regularly, and the 85,000-slot annual cap means timing your search to the April registration window matters.

Our vision is to transform how the world uses information to enrich life for all.
Micron Technology is a world leader in innovating memory and storage solutions that accelerate the transformation of information into intelligence, inspiring the world to learn, communicate and advance faster than ever.
The Heterogeneous Integration Group (HIG) sits within the Technology and Products Group (TPG). We are developing High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) solutions for AI and ML applications! We stack multiple DRAM chips on a high-speed memory controller using TSV (Through Silicon Via) technology, dramatically increasing memory density and bandwidth. Our designs span custom digital and RTL2GDS flows, and we are targeting the lowest power per bit in the industry.
Join us as a Senior Verification Engineer and contribute to modular, scalable verification solutions for next-generation HBM DRAM products! You will work independently within a multi-functional team of technical domain experts, spanning both IP-level and SoC-level verification. You will collaborate with Design Engineering, Product Engineering, and Business Units to complete the HBM verification roadmap. You will apply your solid understanding of testbench architecture, custom or SoC verification methodologies, and 2.5D & 3D package integration to evaluate issues, define solutions, and broaden your expertise.
Responsibilities:
- Develop and implement verification plans and architecture collateral across IP-level and SoC-level verification for current and future HBM designs
- Support co-verification of the overall system and participate in customer interactions to gather feedback and provide recommendations for future HBM solutions
- Build and improve verification methodology components and GenAI applications aligned to HBM design cycles, broadening cross-disciplinary knowledge across custom digital and RTL2GDS flows
- Evaluate and debug pre-silicon and post-silicon issues in current HBM products, and contribute to exploration of new HBM verification architectures
MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS:
- Bachelor's degree or higher in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field
- 4+ years of relevant verification engineering experience, including over 3 years in digital (Verilog), analog (FastSpice), or mixed-signal verification (co-sims or real number modeling)
- Over 2 years working in custom design verification (schematic-based) or RTL design verification flows
- Ability to independently evaluate technical issues and define solutions, with good verbal and written communication skills
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS:
- Master's in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field, or equivalent experience, accompanied by more than 6 years in verification engineering roles

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding H-1B Visa Sponsorship in Design Verification
Map your degree to specialty occupation
USCIS requires a direct relationship between your degree field and the Design Verification role. Document how your coursework in digital logic, VLSI, or embedded systems maps to your job duties before your employer files the I-129.
Target employers with active LCA filings
Use Migrate Mate to filter Design Verification roles by employers who have filed Labor Condition Applications for this occupation code, so you're targeting companies already set up to sponsor rather than educating new ones.
Check prevailing wage before negotiating your offer
Your employer must pay at least the DOL prevailing wage for your specific location and job level. Run your title and metro area through the OFLC Wage Search before accepting an offer to confirm the salary structure supports a compliant LCA filing.
Register in March, not after a verbal offer
H-1B registration opens in March and the lottery selection happens before April 1. If you receive an offer in May, you've missed that fiscal year's cap. Build your job search timeline so you have a signed offer ready before registration closes.
Confirm your role's SOC code with your employer
Design Verification roles get filed under different SOC codes depending on whether the work is classified as hardware engineering, electrical engineering, or quality assurance. The wrong code can trigger an RFE. Ask your employer's immigration counsel which SOC code they plan to use before the LCA is filed.
Use O*NET to strengthen your specialty occupation case
If your job duties are broad or your title is non-standard, pull the O*NET profile for your occupation code and match your responsibilities to the listed tasks. This documentation supports your employer's specialty occupation argument if USCIS issues an RFE.

Find Design Verification JobsDesign Verification H-1B Visa: Frequently Asked Questions
Does Design Verification qualify as a specialty occupation for H-1B purposes?
Yes, Design Verification qualifies as a specialty occupation when the role requires at least a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, or a closely related field. The key is demonstrating that the degree requirement is tied to the specific job duties, not just listed as a preference. Roles involving formal verification, hardware functional testing, or FPGA validation consistently meet this standard.
Which industries sponsor H-1B visas most often for Design Verification roles?
Semiconductor companies, defense contractors, consumer electronics manufacturers, and automotive chip suppliers are the most consistent H-1B sponsors for Design Verification engineers. These employers run structured engineering hiring pipelines and are accustomed to filing LCAs for this occupation. You can browse verified sponsoring employers on Migrate Mate, filtered specifically by this role.
Can my employer file for H-1B sponsorship while I'm on OPT doing Design Verification work?
Yes, and the timing is critical. If you're on standard OPT and your employer files before the April 1 cap-subject deadline, USCIS's cap-gap rule extends your work authorization through September 30 if you're selected in the lottery. STEM OPT holders have more runway, but you should confirm your OPT end date and coordinate with your employer's immigration team before March registration opens.
What should I expect from the LCA filing step for a Design Verification position?
Your employer files the LCA with DOL before submitting the I-129 petition to USCIS. The LCA certifies that your offered wage meets or exceeds the prevailing wage for the role in your work location and that your employment won't adversely affect similarly employed U.S. workers. DOL typically certifies LCAs within seven business days. You're entitled to see a copy of the certified LCA upon request.
How does a Request for Evidence affect a Design Verification H-1B petition?
RFEs for Design Verification petitions typically challenge specialty occupation status, often arguing that the role doesn't require a specific degree field or that the duties are too general. Your employer's response needs to connect your exact job tasks to the degree requirement using the O*NET profile, internal job documentation, and any prior approvals for the same role. Response deadlines are strict, usually 87 days, and missing them results in denial.
