Staff Engineer, Design Verification Engineering

What You'll Do

• Lead pre-silicon verification for complex SoC or subsystem designs, driving execution from planning to closure.
• Verify microprocessor-based systems, AI/ML accelerators, and high-speed peripherals using advanced methodologies.
• Architect and implement UVM-based testbenches, DV flows, and scalable verification methodologies.
• Define and execute test plans; drive functional and code coverage closure in collaboration with design teams.
• Work cross-functionally with emulation, FPGA, and firmware teams to ensure end-to-end system correctness.
• Apply formal verification techniques for IP and subsystem-level validation.
• Lead NoC/interconnect verification and ensure robust data flow across the system.
• Perform system-level use case validation, including performance verification and analysis.
• Develop and validate end-to-end scenarios to ensure real-world functionality.
• Drive innovative verification strategies to meet quality and schedule goals.
• Define overall verification strategy based on product requirements and design specifications, leveraging modern techniques such as formal, emulation, portable stimulus, and virtual platforms.
• Requirements B.Tech/M.Tech with 8+ years of experience in digital pre-silicon verification.
• Strong understanding of SoC/subsystem architectures with hands-on expertise in Verilog/SystemVerilog and UVM-based testbench development and debugging.
• Proven experience in verification closure using functional and code coverage metrics at block and subsystem levels.
• Expertise in NoC, bus, and interconnect verification, including coverage analysis and optimization.
• Experience in architecting testbench environments and implementing scalable DV flows and methodologies.
• Hands-on experience in power-aware verification using UPF, including power analysis and optimization.
• Exposure to formal verification, including flow setup, connectivity, and functional checks.
• Familiarity with gate-level simulations (GLS) with timing annotation.
• Strong knowledge of test planning, constrained-random verification, assertions, and transaction-level modeling using SystemVerilog.
• Understanding of processor-based systems (ARM, RISC-V, Tensilica), AI/ML or GPU-based architectures is a plus.
• Proficiency in C/C++, SystemC, and scripting (Python/TCL/Shell).
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills with the ability to work across global teams.
• Strong problem-solving ability with a mindset to quickly learn and adopt new technologies.
