SOC Design verification engineer

Job Summary

The focus of this role is to plan, build, and execute the verification of new and existing features for pre-silicon verification for full chip, blocks, multi-chip and system-level verification, resulting in no bugs in the final design.

The Person

You have a passion for modern, complex processor architecture, digital design, and verification in general. You are a team player who has excellent communication skills and experience collaborating with other engineers located in different sites/timezones. You have strong analytical and problem-solving skills and are willing to learn and ready to take on problems.

Key Responsibilities

• Collaborate with architects, hardware engineers, and firmware engineers to understand the new features to be verified

• Build test plan documentation, accounting for interactions with other features, the hardware, the firmware, and the software driver use cases

• Estimate the time required to write the new feature tests and any required changes to the test environment

• Build the directed and random verification tests

• Debug test failures to determine the root cause; work with RTL and firmware engineers to resolve design defects and correct any test issues

• Review functional and code coverage metrics - modify or add tests or constrain random tests to meet the coverage requirements

Preferred Experience

• Proficient in ASIC design verification with 8+ years of experience

• Must have excellent knowledge of ASIC design flow and SOC architecture

• Excellent debugging skills in functional simulations are must.

• Proficient in developing and using UVM testbenches, flows and working in Linux and Windows environment

• Experienced with Verilog, SystemVerilog, C, C++ and SystemC

• Automating workflows in a distributed compute environment

• Exposure to simulation profile, efficiency improvement, acceleration, HLS tools/process

• Scripting language experience: Perl, Python, Makefile, shell preferred.

• Exposure to leadership or mentorship is an asset

• Experience in hardware security features verification or SoC level boot flow is good to have.

Academic Credentials

• Bachelors or Masters degree in computer engineering/Electrical Engineering
