TL;DR · Senior ASIC Verification Engineer

As a Senior ASIC Verification Engineer, you will join the team to verify global IP across multiple product lines including consumer graphics, self-driving cars, HPC, cloud computing, and AI. You will partner with design and architecture teams to make implementation choices, craft and implement verification test plans, maintain regressions, and close coverage for functional correctness and performance. Your daily responsibilities include developing test plans and infrastructure, automating flows for generated RTL, and building verification components using SV/UVM methodology. To succeed, you must possess expertise in pre-silicon verification, SystemVerilog, UVM, and ASIC design flow. You will utilize tools such as VCS, dc_shell, Debussy, or GDB while utilizing Perl or Python for scripting. The role focuses on solving complex technical challenges by ensuring code and functional coverage of RTL across various hardware blocks.

What you'll do

  • Develop test plans and verification infrastructure for global IP across multiple product lines.
  • Build verification components using SystemVerilog and UVM methodologies.
  • Define and automate flows to efficiently build, deploy, and verify generated RTL.
  • Ensure full code and functional coverage of all verified RTL.
  • Drive coverage-based verification closure to ensure functional correctness and performance.
  • Identify corner cases and resolve complex verification issues in collaboration with design teams.
  • Maintain regressions and sign off on designs for production readiness.

What we're looking for

  • BS/MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or equivalent experience.
  • 5+ years of proven design verification experience.
  • Experience in pre-silicon verification using UVM and SystemVerilog.
  • Knowledge of ASIC design/implementation flow and design automation.
  • Programming and scripting experience in Perl or Python.
  • Proficiency with tools such as dc_shell, VCS, Debussy, or GDB.
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills to work across functional teams.
  • Experience in object-oriented programming and automating verification tasks.
