TL;DR · Design Verification Engineer

As a Design Verification Engineer, you will join the silicon design group to ensure the quality and reliability of next-generation cellular systems. You will be responsible for constructing detailed test plans, creating coverage-driven verification plans from specifications, and architecting reusable UVM-based test benches featuring components like stimulus, checkers, VIPs, and reference models. Your daily work involves implementing test plans from RTL simulation bring-up to sign-off while managing regressions and reporting progress against coverage metrics. You will utilize SystemVerilog, UVM, SystemC, C/C++, Python, Perl, and SVA to validate complex IP and subsystem designs. Additionally, you will leverage Large Language Models and ML-driven workflows to enhance verification efficiency. This role focuses on the technical challenges of high-throughput cellular baseband modems, transceiver link controllers, and advanced fabric protocols like AXI and AHB.

What you'll do

  • Construct detailed test plans including use cases and coverage targets from technical specifications.
  • Architect reusable UVM-based test benches featuring stimulus, checkers, VIPs, and reference models.
  • Develop and implement ML-driven workflows to increase verification productivity and quality.
  • Utilize Large Language Models (LLMs) to enhance verification processes and efficiency.
  • Execute test plans from RTL simulation bring-up through final sign-off while debugging failures.
  • Maintain regression suites and report progress against coverage metrics.
  • Develop Python-based automation solutions to streamline design verification tasks.

What we're looking for

  • Minimum requirement of a bachelor's degree.
  • Knowledge of System Verilog and UVM.
  • Experience with System C, C/C++, Python, or Perl.
  • Ability to develop and establish DV Methodologies.
  • Ability to use LLMs and MCPs for verification processes.
  • Ability to develop Python-based automation solutions.
  • Understanding of constraint random testing, SVA, and coverage-driven verification.
  • Knowledge of 4G/5G cellular physical layer operation (3GPP) and bus architectures like AXI or AHB.
