Senior Staff Digital Verification Engineer

MaxLinear is seeking a Senior Staff Digital Verification Engineer to join our Analog Mixed-Signal (AMS) group. The AMS team develops a diverse portfolio of integrated circuits spanning Interface (serial transceivers, bridges, isolators) and Power Management solutions. Our Power Management portfolio includes PMICs, point-of-load (PoL) converters, and power management controllers, designed to simplify system power architectures across a broad range of end markets. Our Interface portfolio includes RS-485 and RS-232 transceivers, USB-to-UART, USB-to-Ethernet, and PCIe-to-UART controllers, and Digital and Power Isolators, enabling robust, high-reliability communication across industrial control, networking, and multi-market applications.

Responsibilities:

• Architect and drive digital verification strategy for complex AMS products
• Ensure first-silicon success through robust verification methodologies, comprehensive coverage, and close collaboration with design and system teams

Qualifications:

• Bachelor's in Electrical/Electronics Engineering or Master's degree in Electrical/Electronics Engineering and/or 7+ years of related experience
• Architecting block and full-chip verification environments using HVLs (UVM) and constrained random techniques for SoCs with embedded CPUs, serial interfaces, and mixed-signal interfaces
• Experience verifying blocks/clusters/full chip level for ASIC
• Construct testbench components like scoreboards, agents, sequencers, and monitors
• Debugging RTL and gate simulations and working with design engineers to verify fixes
• Converting verification tests to test patterns and assisting test engineers on ATE vector bring-up
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
• Specialization in power management and/or serial interface systems such as USB controller, USB-UART, USB-Ethernet, GPIO expanders, AXI bus, embedded microcontroller-based design
• Passion for learning and engineering great solutions
• Proven written and verbal communication skills that demonstrate clarity of thought and conviction
• Working knowledge of one or more scripting languages (Perl, Python) and ability to use them to automate/accelerate verification and analysis tasks
