TL;DR · wSoC Design Verification Engineer

As a wSoC Design Verification Engineer, you will join the silicon design group to verify complex, large-scale wireless SoCs. You will be responsible for pre-silicon RTL verification of both blocks and top-level systems, focusing on high-efficiency architecture and standard peripherals like SPI, I2C, UART, DMA, and memory management. Your daily work involves creating coverage-driven verification plans from specifications, architecting highly reusable UVM testbenches, and integrating complex multi-instance VIPs into the SoC level. You will utilize UPF simulations for power management designs and address low-power scenarios. The role requires expertise in UVM/OVM methodologies, formal verification, and high-speed protocols including PCIe, NOC, AHB, and AXI. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams to solve complex wireless protocol requirements while improving verification flows and ensuring tape-out readiness for sophisticated multi-processor systems.

What you'll do

  • Create coverage-driven verification plans from specifications and refine them to meet target goals.
  • Architect highly reusable UVM-based testbenches and integrate complex multi-instance VIPs into the SoC level.
  • Perform pre-silicon RTL verification for both individual blocks and top-level SoC designs.
  • Execute power management verification using low-power methodologies and UPF simulations.
  • Verify high-speed protocols including PCIe, DDR, USB, and various bus architectures like AXI and AHB.
  • Validate firmware-hardware interactions and complex multi-chip SoC debug architectures.
  • Collaborate with architecture and software teams to integrate and verify overall SoC designs.
  • Work with methodology architects to improve and optimize the verification flow.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering or equivalent degree.
  • Dedicated and hands-on ASIC Design Verification experience (preferred).
  • Advanced knowledge of HVL methodology, specifically UVM (preferred).
  • Experience with formal verification (preferred).
  • Proven track record of working a full ASIC cycle from concept to tape-out (preferred).
  • Experience taping out large SoC systems with embedded processor cores (preferred).
  • Hands-on experience verifying PCIe, Bus Fabric, NOC, AHB, and AXI architectures in UVM environments (preferred).
  • Knowledge of low power design, UPF integration, and HW/FW interaction verification (preferred).
