TL;DR · R&D Engineer IC Design V

As an R&D Engineer IC Design 5, you will join the ASIC system-level verification team to develop complex verification environments and create comprehensive test plans for high-performance network switch ASICs and FPGAs. You will be responsible for hands-on implementation across all aspects of ASIC verification while collaborating with system architects and design engineers to achieve full verification closure. The role requires a proven track record of completing multiple successful ASIC design cycles from initial concept through production. You must possess strong working knowledge of object-oriented programming, modern ASIC verification flows like UVM and SystemVerilog, and mastery of Verilog for simulation. Additionally, you will utilize C/C++ and apply expertise in networking protocols such as Ethernet, PCIe, and routing or switching to solve technical challenges within the high-performance networking domain.

What you'll do

  • Develop complex verification environments for high-performance network switch ASICs and FPGAs.
  • Create comprehensive test plans to ensure full verification closure.
  • Implement hands-on verification across all stages of the ASIC design cycle.
  • Architect testbenches specifically tailored for networking applications.
  • Verify hardware designs against specifications using SystemVerilog and UVM methodologies.
  • Execute multiple ASIC tape-out cycles from initial concept through production.
  • Document technical specifications and communicate project status to cross-functional teams.

What we're looking for

  • 8+ years of ASIC design/verification experience.
  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering.
  • Proficiency in Verilog for simulation and mastery of deep sub-micron ASIC design flows.
  • Hands-on experience with C/C++ and object-oriented programming (OOP).
  • Strong working knowledge of modern ASIC verification flows, including UVM and SystemVerilog.
  • Proven track record of completing multiple ASIC tape-outs from initial concept through full production.
  • Experience with networking protocols such as Ethernet, PCIe, routing, and switching.
  • Fluency in technical and business English for documentation and cross-functional collaboration.
