Staff Verification Engineer
We are seeking a highly skilled Verification Engineer to drive unit-level verification of complex digital IP blocks.
The ideal candidate will have deep expertise in SystemVerilog (SV), UVM methodology, and power-aware verification (UPF/CPF).
You will be responsible for ensuring design correctness, low-power compliance, and robust analog/digital interaction at the block and subsystem level.
Education and Experience:
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electronics or Electrical Engineering (or equivalent).
- 8-12 years of experience in block-level or unit-level functional verification with exposure to AMS and low-power design verification
- Develop UVM-based verification environments for digital IPs at the unit level.
- Create System Verilog testbenches, drivers, monitors, and scoreboards to validate functional and timing behavior.
- Define and execute power-aware verification plans using UPF/CPF, covering power gating, isolation, retention, and level-shifting behavior.
- Develop assertion-based verification (SVA) for functional and low-power checks.
- Build and maintain functional coverage models, track coverage closure, and identify verification gaps.
- Collaborate closely with design, analog, and SoC verification teams to align stimulus and interface models.
- Debug simulation issues using waveform analysis and low-power debugging tools.
- Provide technical guidance and methodology improvements for mixed-signal and low-power verification.
Essential Skills
- Strong proficiency in System Verilog and UVM testbench architecture.
- Working knowledge of power-aware verification with UPF/CPF, including isolation, retention, and power-switch modeling.
- Hands-on experience with simulation and debug tools (Synopsys VCS, Cadence Xcelium, Siemens Questa).
- Exposure to low-power design techniques (clock gating, power domains, voltage scaling).
- Knowledge of SVA and functional coverage methodology.
Preferred Skills
- Understanding of analog front-end circuits (e.g., PLLs, ADCs, PMICs, LDOs, sensor interfaces).
- Experience in formal verification or assertion-based formal checks for power and control logic.
- Integrate AMS co-simulation (e.g., Cadence Xcelium AMS, Synopsys VCS AMS) and ensure convergence across analog and digital domains.
- Experience with Analog-Mixed-Signal verification using Verilog-AMS or real-number modeling (RNM).
- Scripting and automation skills in Python, Perl, or Shell.
