TL;DR · ASIC Design Verification Engineer

As an ASIC Design Verification Engineer at Cisco, you will join a dynamic team focused on advancing data center solutions by architecting and developing robust DV infrastructure for complex chips. Your daily tasks include building DV environments from scratch, creating comprehensive test plans using constraint-random and directed stimulus, ensuring thorough verification coverage through code and functional implementation, and collaborating with designers and software teams to debug issues during post-silicon bring-up. You will also support design testing in emulation environments, requiring expertise in System Verilog and UVM methodology, along with hands-on experience building scalable test benches using Perl or Python scripts. Ideal candidates have additional knowledge of formal verification tools and protocols such as PCIe, CXL, Ethernet, RDMA, DDR, or TCP, enhancing their ability to contribute effectively to Cisco’s cutting-edge hardware platforms.

What you'll do

  • Architect and develop DV infrastructure for block, cluster, and top-level verification.
  • Create comprehensive test plans using constraint-random and directed stimulus methods.
  • Implement and review code and functional coverage to ensure thorough verification.
  • Qualify RTL design by conducting Gate Level Simulations on netlists.
  • Debug issues during post-silicon bring-up and integration with cross-functional teams.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor’s degree + 5 years or Master’s degree + 3 years of ASIC experience.
  • Proficient in System Verilog and UVM methodology.
  • Hands-on experience building reusable and scalable test benches.
  • Scripting skills with Perl and/or Python.
  • Experience in constraint-random and directed stimulus testing.
  • Collaboration with designers, architects, and software teams for debugging.
