Job Description:

Responsibilities

• Lead verification planning, execution, and sign-off for complex FPGA/ASIC IPs, subsystems, and SoC-level designs.
• Define verification methodologies, test strategies, coverage goals, and closure criteria for project deliverables.
• Architect and develop advanced SystemVerilog/UVM verification environments, reusable verification components, scoreboards, assertions, and coverage models.
• Drive verification closure through functional coverage, code coverage, regression analysis, and risk assessments.
• Lead debug of complex RTL, integration, low-power, timing, and gate-level simulation issues.
• Collaborate with architects, RTL designers, validation engineers, firmware teams, and program managers to ensure successful product execution.
• Provide technical leadership for verification methodologies, automation, infrastructure, and best practices across projects.
• Mentor and guide verification engineers, perform design and verification reviews, and drive team technical excellence.
• Support silicon bring-up, failure analysis, and root-cause investigations as required.
• Drive continuous improvements in verification productivity, quality, and reusability.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.
• 8+ years of ASIC/FPGA functional verification experience.
• Strong expertise in SystemVerilog, UVM, and assertion-based verification.
• Proven experience leading verification of complex IPs, subsystems, or SoCs from planning through sign-off.
• Strong debugging skills in RTL, gate-level, and system-level verification environments.
• Experience with constrained-random verification, coverage-driven verification, and regression management.
• Proficiency in Python, Perl, Shell, or other scripting languages.
• Excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration skills.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with PCIe, USB, MIPI CSI/DSI, Ethernet, SerDes, USB, or similar high-speed protocols.
• Experience with low-power verification (UPF/CPF).
• Experience with GLS, timing validation, and post-silicon debug.
• Experience driving verification methodology and infrastructure improvements across multiple projects.
• Proven ability to mentor engineers and lead technical initiatives.
