Sr. ASIC Design Verification Engineer (Silicon Engineering) joins a cross-disciplinary team to develop next-generation ASICs for space and ground infrastructure. This role focuses on digital ASIC verification at both the block and system levels, where the engineer will write and review test plans, develop test harnesses and sequences, and execute regressions to achieve code and functional coverage closure. The position involves critical pre-silicon verification, chip bring-up, and post-silicon validation for hardware supporting global connectivity. Key technical requirements include expertise in UVM, OVM, or VMM methodologies, strong object-oriented programming knowledge, and experience with constrained random verification. Candidates should possess skills in scripting languages like Python for automation, along with RTL design capabilities. The work addresses the technical challenge of building reliable, high-performance hardware components to expand the functionality and performance of a global satellite network.
