TL;DR · ASIC Verification Engineer

The ASIC Verification Engineer will join the global IP team to verify hardware across multiple product lines including consumer graphics, self-driving cars, HPC, cloud computing, and AI. The role involves partnering with design and architecture teams to make implementation choices, crafting verification test plans, maintaining regressions, and closing coverage to ensure functional correctness and performance. Key responsibilities include developing verification infrastructure, automating flows for generated RTL, and building components using SV/UVM methodology. Candidates must utilize SystemVerilog, UVM, Perl, and Python while employing tools like VCS, dc_shell, Debussy, and GDB. The position requires solving complex pre-silicon verification problems, identifying corner cases, and driving coverage-based closure for global IP. This role demands strong debugging skills and experience in ASIC design and implementation flows.

What you'll do

  • Develop test plans, tests, and verification infrastructure for global IP across multiple products.
  • Define, develop, and automate flows and methodologies to verify generated RTL.
  • Build verification components using SV/UVM methodology.
  • Ensure code and functional coverage of all verified RTL.
  • Drive coverage-based verification closure for design sign-off.
  • Maintain regressions and verify both functional correctness and performance expectations.
  • Identify corner cases and resolve verification-related issues with design teams.

What we're looking for

  • BS/MS in Electrical or Computer Engineering or equivalent experience.
  • 2+ years of proven design verification experience.
  • Experience in pre-silicon verification using UVM and SystemVerilog.
  • Experience in ASIC design/implementation flow and design automation.
  • Programming and scripting experience in Perl or Python.
  • Exposure to design and verification tools such as dc_shell, VCS, Debussy, or GDB.
  • Previous experience automating tasks in the design verification process (preferred).
  • Hands-on experience in object-oriented programming (preferred).
