Design Verification Engineer

About This Role

• Intel is seeking a Design Verification Engineer for the Silicon Chassis team.
• In this role, you will contribute to verification of next-generation interconnect and chassis IPs that scale across multiple product families.
• You will work closely with senior engineers to build and execute robust verification plans, develop high-quality reusable environments, and help deliver first-pass silicon success through strong design verification practices.
• This role requires strong programming and algorithmic problem-solving skills, hands-on verification development, and willingness to work across traditional discipline boundaries.
• AI-assisted workflows are part of everyday development here.
• Responsibilities - Develop and execute verification plans and testbenches for interconnect and chassis IP/features at IP and subsystem level - Build reusable verification components, checkers, constrained-random tests, and debug infrastructure to improve coverage and productivity - Work with architecture, design, and software teams on spec reviews, feature clarification, bug triage, and closure; contribute outside strict DV boundaries when needed - Analyze simulation failures, root-cause issues quickly, and drive fixes to closure with clear technical communication - Contribute to functional coverage planning, coverage closure, and quality signoff under guidance of technical leads - Contribute to both simulation and formal verification efforts; continuously improve verification automation, regression quality, and development efficiency You should also demonstrate: Proven ability to write clean, reusable, and maintainable verification code and automation scripts, and to collaborate effectively across architecture, design, and software teams Qualifications: Minimum Qualifications - BS/MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field, with 3+ years of relevant experience in design verification - Programming fundamentals and algorithmic problem-solving skills, with demonstrated hands-on coding experience in SystemVerilog, C/C++, and Python - Foundation in simulation-based verification methodologies UVM/ABV, with exposure to formal verification concepts; testbench development, debugging, and coverage-driven verification - Hands-on experience using AI-assisted development tools as part of daily workflow for coding, debugging, and test development Preferred Qualifications - Exposure to interconnects and bus protocols for example AMBA AXI/ACE/CHI, PCIe, CXL, UCIe - Understanding of cache coherency and memory consistency models - Experience with external interfaces and system integration debug - Experience with formal verification tools (JasperGold, VC Formal, or similar) and emulation or FPGA-based verification - Exposure to RTL concepts, physical design, or CAD tool flows - Prior work with system IPs such as MMUs SMMU or IOMMU and interrupt controllers Job Type: Experienced Hire Shift: Shift 1 (United States of America) Primary Location: US, California, Santa Clara Additional Locations: Business group: The Central Engineering Group (CEG) is Intel's data-driven organization that builds scalable engineering solutions across three pillars: Product Enablement (IP, tools, and methodologies), Custom ASIC (leveraging existing IP for custom silicon), and Foundry Enablement (supporting top customers and validating technologies).
