TL;DR · Senior ASIC Verification Engineer

As a Senior Verification Engineer at NVIDIA, you will join a dynamic team dedicated to advancing consumer graphics, autonomous vehicles, and AI technologies by ensuring the integrity of our leading SoCs and GPUs. Your responsibilities include verifying ASIC designs using UVM methodologies, collaborating with architects and designers to drive comprehensive coverage, and innovating with AI-driven workflows to enhance testbench generation and debug productivity. You will need a strong background in electrical or computer engineering, 8+ years of experience in ASIC verification at both IP and SoC levels, expertise in C/C++, Python scripting, and deep knowledge of low-speed IOs, AXI/APB interconnects, and memory controllers. This role demands proficiency in assertion-based design checks, formal test plan documentation, and a forward-thinking approach to leveraging AI tools for engineering tasks.

What you'll do

  • Lead the verification of ASIC design using UVM methodologies.
  • Define verification scope and develop robust infrastructure for complex logic.
  • Collaborate with architects and designers to drive comprehensive coverage.
  • Innovate by integrating AI-driven workflows into the verification cycle.
  • Develop architectural golden models and co-verification tests in C/C++.

What we're looking for

  • 8+ years of experience in ASIC verification at both IP and SoC levels.
  • Proven expertise in building UVM testbenches and applying constrained random methodology.
  • High proficiency in C/C++ for developing architectural golden models and co-verification tests.
  • Deep knowledge in Low-Speed IOs, AXI/APB interconnects, DMA controllers, and Memory Controllers.
  • Expert skills in assertion-based design checks (SVA), code coverage, functional coverage, and formal test plan documentation.
  • Strong debugging and analytical skills for resolving complex SoC-level issues.
  • Professional scripting abilities in Python, Perl, or TCL for automation tasks.
