Role Overview
As a Subsystem Design Verification Staff engineer you will drive verification of complex subsystems that form the foundation of next-generation Arm-based platforms. You will develop reusable verification solutions and drive verification from planning through closure.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop and execute verification strategies for subsystem-level designs and IP integration.
- Verify subsystem functionality including interconnects, memory interfaces, peripherals, power management, and software-visible features.
- Validate subsystem functionality under functional, integration, stress, and performance scenarios.
- Own verification deliverables from planning through verification closure while ensuring quality, schedule, and execution commitments are met.
- Architect, develop, and maintain reusable verification environments, verification IPs, methodologies, and automation.
- Develop verification plans, test methodologies, test cases, and coverage closure strategies.
- Drive functional, code, toggle, assertion, and coverage closure.
- Debug RTL, testbench, integration, and system-level issues.
- Collaborate with architecture, design, firmware, emulation, FPGA, validation, and post-silicon teams.
- Leverage automation, scripting, and AI-assisted workflows to improve verification productivity.
- Contribute to methodology improvements, documentation, and engineering best practices.
Required Skills and Qualifications
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in a relevant engineering discipline.
- 10+ years of experience in IP or subsystem verification.
- Strong knowledge of Verilog, SystemVerilog, UVM, and modern verification methodologies.
- Understanding of subsystem architecture, integration, AMBA protocols, memory hierarchy, and verification flows.
- Experience with C/C++, scripting, coverage closure, and RTL/testbench debugging.
- Excellent analytical, communication, and collaboration skills.
Desired Skills and Qualifications
- Experience verifying multimedia, security, PCIe, networking, storage, or memory subsystems.
- Knowledge of Arm architecture and AMBA protocols.
- Experience with UPF, formal verification, emulation, FPGA, or gate-level simulation.
- Experience developing reusable verification IPs and automation frameworks.
- AI-assisted verification experience.
