Description

About the Role & Team:
  • As part of the Design Verification Engineering Team, you will verify the critical circuitry inside our chips for the general market and specific tier-one customers. These chips utilize cutting-edge technology to facilitate high-speed data transfers. You will play a vital role in ensuring each design meets stringent customer specifications across major telecom, automotive, and technology sectors.
  • In this role, you will develop the architecture for functional verification environments including reference models and bus-functional monitors and drivers and actively contribute to the underlying verification methodologies.
Key Responsibilities:
  • Test Planning & Development: Write detailed verification test plans using random techniques and coverage analysis; collaborate with design teams to ensure plan completeness.
  • Environment Optimization: Develop targeted tests and tune the verification environment to successfully achieve coverage goals.
  • Debugging: Debug test failures and work directly with designers to resolve underlying chip issues.
  • Firmware & Multi-Core Tooling: Verify boot code and architect, develop, and maintain software tools that streamline the design of state-of-the-art multi-core SoCs.
  • Scalable Software Engineering: Transform engineering requirements into highly parallel, scalable, and user-friendly software infrastructure tools.
  • Software QA: Perform comprehensive unit and regression testing of internal software tools.
Position Requirements:
Education & Experience:
  • Education: BS, MS, or PhD in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or Computer Engineering.
  • Experience: 10 12 years of relevant professional experience in hardware verification and software/firmware development.
Required Technical Skills:
  • Methodologies: Strong proficiency with SystemVerilog and UVM.
  • Environment Building: Proven experience writing detailed test plans and building sophisticated, directed, and constrained-random verification environments.
  • Protocols: Prior working knowledge of UAL or PCIe protocols.
  • Scripting & EDA: Experience with scripting languages like Python or Perl alongside industry-standard EDA verification tools.
  • Software Design: Experience with Object-Oriented Design (OOD) and implementation.
  • Operating Systems: Good technical understanding of the Linux OS.
  • Programming: Solid programming skills, specifically in C++ and ARM assembly.
Professional & Soft Skills:
  • Diligent, detail-oriented, and highly proactive with the ability to handle complex assignments with minimal supervision.
  • Collaborative mindset with the ability to accept, process, and work with differing engineering opinions (must be an open-minded developer).
  • Dynamic learner who can adapt quickly on the fly within a fast-paced environment.
