Job Description:


We are looking for Principal Design Verification Engineers with proven experience in all aspects of verification in UVM and C/C++. The candidate must have experience using high level programming languages such as C/C++ to communicate with System Verilog and/or UVM based environments to aid RTL simulation, CoSimulation and Emulation.


Basic qualifications:


  • Strong academic and technical background in electrical engineering. At minimum, a Bachelor’s in EE is
  • required, and a Maser’s is preferred.
  • ≥8 years’ experience supporting or developing complex high-speed SerDes/silicon products for Server, Storage, and/or
  • Networking applications.
  • Professional attitude with the ability to prioritize a dynamic list of multiple tasks, to plan and prepare for
  • customer meetings in advance, and to work with minimal guidance and supervision.
  • Entrepreneurial, open-mind behavior and can-do attitude. Think and act fast with the customer in mind!
  • Authorized to work in US and start immediately.


Required Experience


  • Experience with integrating Matlab/Simulink/C/C++ in System Verilog environments using DPI/PLI
  • Ability to use scripting tools (Perl/Python) to automate verification infrastructure.
  • Experience in developing infrastructure and tests in a hybrid directed and constrained random
  • environments
  • Must be able to work independently to develop test-plans, and related test-sequences in UVM to
  • generate stimuli and work collaboratively with RTL designers to debug failures.
  • Develop user-controlled random constraints in transaction-based verification methodology. Experience
  • writing assertions, cover properties and analyzing coverage data
  • Must have prior experience on End-to-End Mix-Signal SerDes verification with channel modeling and compliance testing.
  • Must have prior experience on verification with firmware to control and configure the SerDes and related components.


Preferred Experience


  • SW debugging for Mix-Signal based designs.
  • Experience with PHY layer verification in PCIe, Ethernet, and/or UAL.
  • Experience with FPGA-based verification/emulation.
