Sr Formal Verification Engineer

Position: Senior Formal Verification Engineer (BB80FT RM 4341)

Role Overview
We are looking for a Senior Formal Verification Engineer to own formal sign-off for complex, highspeed IP blocks and subsystems. The ideal candidate combines deep formal methodology expertise with strong hands-on SystemVerilog/UVM verification experience on complex protocol IPs such as
DDR, PCIe, and Ethernet.

Key Responsibilities
Own end-to-end Formal Property Verification (FPV) for complex IP and subsystem blocks - from test plan and property/assertion development through proof convergence and sign-off
Perform formal connectivity checking, X-propagation, CDC/RDC-adjacent formal analysis, and register/CSR formal verification
Apply advanced formal techniques - abstraction, case-splitting, cut-points, and complexity reduction - to achieve convergence on large, complex designs
Develop and review SystemVerilog Assertions (SVA) for protocol compliance, data integrity, and corner-case behavior on DDR, PCIe, /or Ethernet IP
Complement formal sign-off with strong SV/UVM simulation-based verification where needed - testbench architecture, VIP integration, coverage closure
Collaborate closely with RTL design and architecture teams to debug counterexamples, refine specifications, and drive verification closure
Mentor junior verification engineers and contribute to formal verification methodology and best practices across the team

Required Skills Experience
8+ years of verification experience, with substantial hands-on Formal Verification (FPV) ownership
Strong expertise with industry-standard formal tools - Cadence JasperGold and/or Synopsys VC Formal
Proven experience verifying complex, high-speed protocol IP - DDR, PCIe, and/or Ethernet strongly preferred
Strong System Verilog and UVM expertise, with the ability to work across both formal and simulation-based verification flows
Solid understanding of AMBA protocols (AXI/AHB/APB) and general SoC-level verification concepts
Experience with assertion IP (AIP) development and formal connectivity/architectural verification is a strong plus
Excellent debugging skills and ability to work directly with design/architecture teams to resolve complex issues

Good to Have
Experience with high-speed SerDes or PHY-layer verification
Exposure to low-power verification and UPF-based formal flows
Prior experience mentoring teams or leading formal verification efforts on a project
