We are looking for Principal Design Verification Engineers with a flair for being a code breaker, ability to come up hybrid mechanisms for verification of complex ASICs. Experience with System Verilog, C, C++, Python or other scripting languages would be a plus. Using your coding and problem-solving skills, you will contribute to the functional verification of the designs. You'll be responsible for the full life cycle of verification, from planning to writing tests to debugging, collect and closing coverage. You’ll also work with the software and system validation teams to come up with test plans and executing them in emulation platforms.

  • ≥8 years’ experience verifying and validating complex SoC for Server, Storage, and Networking applications.
  • Knowledge of industry-standard simulators, revision control systems, and regression systems.

Required Experience

  • Experience with full verification lifecycle based on System Verilog/UVM/C/C++.
  • Proven ability to mix and deploy hybrid techniques as in both directed and constrained random.
  • Experience with different ways to bug and coverage hunting. Experience in formal methods is a plus.
  • Must be able to work independently to develop test-plans, and related test-sequences to generate stimuli and work collaboratively with RTL designers to debug failures.
  • Identify and write all types of coverage measures for stimulus and corner-cases. Close coverage to identify verification holes for high quality tape-out.

Preferred Experience

  • Working experience with scripting tools (Perl/Python) to automate verification infrastructure.
  • Prior experience using Verification IPs from 3rd party vendors with one or more communication protocols such as PCI-Express (Gen-3 and above), Ethernet, InfiniBand, DDR4/5, NVMe, USB, etc.
  • Working experience with scripting tools (Perl/Python) to automate verification infrastructure.
  • Experience with directed test based methodologies, cache verification and formal methods.

The base salary range is USD 170,000.00 – USD 250,000.00. Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and the pay of employees in similar positions.
