Core Technical Skills
Proven industry experience in ASIC/SoC design and verification with multiple successful tape-outs.
Expert Languages: Mastery of SystemVerilog, Verilog, and UVM (Universal Verification Methodology).
Digital Logic: Strong foundational knowledge in digital logic design, finite state machines (FSM), FIFO architectures, and clocking concepts.
Processor Knowledge: Strong understanding of CPU/GPU architectures, cache coherency, and memory controllers (e.g., DDR4/DDR5, HBM) is highly desirable."
Tools: Expert proficiency with industry-leading EDA simulators, debuggers (e.g., Synopsys VCS, Siemens QuestaSim, Cadence Xcelium/Verd), and emulation platforms.
Protocols: Deep, authoritative knowledge of high-speed protocols (e.g., SPI, I2C,PCIe, NVMe, Ethernet, USB) or complex bus architectures (e.g., AMBA AXI/CHI/ACE)."
Scripting: Advanced capability in Python, Tcl, or Perl to create custom automation infrastructure for regressions and metrics tracking.
Soft Skills
Strategic Thinking: Ability to foresee technical risks weeks or months in advance and proactively implement mitigation strategies.
Influence: Strong leadership and communication skills to guide cross-functional teams and align stakeholders on technical directions.
