TL;DR · Design Verification Engineer

As a Design Verification Engineer, you will join the team responsible for cutting-edge server memory products to drive verification efforts for DDR interfaces. You will develop and execute verification plans for DDR5, LPDDR5, and DFI memory systems while ensuring that firmware, BIOS, and software are aligned with hardware features. Your daily work involves engaging in cross-functional discussions regarding RTL and micro-architecture, contributing to verification methodologies, and supporting post-silicon teams with performance, power, and functional debugging. You will utilize SystemVerilog, UVM, C/C++, Python, and Perl to build testbenches, simulation environments, and functional coverage models. The role requires expertise in systemverilog assertions, constraints, and formal verification methods. You will also build VIPs and BFMs from scratch while navigating complex memory protocols across various DIMMs to solve critical integration issues within the server product domain.
