Our technology powers intelligent edge devices across automotive, industrial, robotics, and embedded systems.\nFounded by technologists from MIT and Carnegie Mellon, Quadric is a well-funded growth-stage semiconductor IP company with a growing licensing business.\nThe Opportunity\nQuadric is building a revolutionary new processor-based SoC architecture. As a Senior Design Verification Engineer, you will join the ground floor of our chip design team, taking technical leadership in architecting and building our SoC-level verification environment from scratch. You will collaborate closely with architects, hardware engineers, and software teams to ensure high quality and complete verification coverage for our next-generation GPNPU-based SoCs.\nWhat You'll Do\nTestbench Architecture & Test Plan Development\nArchitect and build novel, scratch-built testbenches for SoC-level verification of our GPNPU-based SoCs. \nCollaborate cross-functionally with architects, HW designers, and SW teams to document comprehensive verification test plans. \nImplement scalable testbenches using commercial Verification IP (VIP) and/or internal software utilities. \nTest Execution & Verification Coverage\nDevelop directed and random drivers, as well as assembly or C++ programs, to efficiently stress-test SoC subsystems and integration. \nVerify complex SoC subsystems, including 3rd-party IP (e.g., NoC, PCIe/UCIe, DDR). \nLeverage VCS and Verilog/C Co-Simulation environments alongside assembly programming and Python scripting to execute test suites. \nTrack, analyze, and communicate verification progress across teams using functional and code coverage metrics. \nWhat Success Looks Like\nWithin your first 6-12 months, you'll:\nBuild out and deploy a fully functional, scratch-built SoC-level UVM verification environment. \nAchieve target coverage metrics across all critical SoC subsystems and 3rd-party IP blocks. \nEstablish robust co-simulation pipelines that validate HW/SW execution before tapeout. \nWhat We're Looking For\nRequired\nMinimum 5+ years of dedicated design verification experience on complex SoC/ASIC designs. \nDeep expertise in UVM methodology and leading SoC-level verification practices. \nProficiency in SystemVerilog or Verilog, assembly programming, and scripting languages like Python. \nHands-on experience verifying SoC subsystems and 3rd-party IP (e.g., NoC, PCIe/UCIe, DDR). \nStrong computer architecture background with experience in VCS and Verilog/C Co-Simulation. \nWhat We Offer\nIn addition to a competitive salary, we offer a variety of benefits to support your needs. The benefits below reflect our India-based offerings; for roles in other locations, benefits vary and are shared during the hiring process. These include:\nMedical, dental, and vision insurance \nEquity with the business\nPaid Parental Leave\nPF Retirement Plan\nFlexible PTO\nWinter holiday shutdown\nCatered lunch each day in our office\nDowntown Pune office location, close to shops, cafes, and local amenities\nCollaborative, low-ego culture with significant ownership and impact\nA work culture focused on innovative disruption\nFounded in 2016 and based in downtown Burlingame, California, Quadric is building the world’s first supercomputer designed for the real-time needs of edge devices. Quadric aims to empower developers in every industry with superpowers to create tomorrow’s technology, today. The company was co-founded by technologists from MIT and Carnegie Mellon, who were previously the technical co-founders of the Bitcoin computing company 21.\nQuadric is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to creating an inclusive environment where people from all backgrounds can do their best work.
