Job Type: Full-Time

We are looking for a highly skilled Design Verification Engineer to join our VLSI verification team and contribute to the functional verification of complex SoC and subsystem designs. This role is ideal for professionals with strong expertise in SoC Verification, SystemVerilog, UVM, and PCIe, who are passionate about delivering high-quality silicon through robust verification methodologies and comprehensive coverage closure.

As a Design Verification Engineer, you will work closely with RTL designers, architecture teams, and validation engineers to develop scalable verification environments, execute verification plans, debug complex functional issues, and ensure first-pass silicon success. You will be involved throughout the verification lifecycle, from specification review and testbench development to regression execution, coverage analysis, and verification sign-off.

This role offers the opportunity to work on cutting-edge semiconductor products while leveraging industry-leading verification methodologies and protocols.

Requirements

Key Responsibilities

Develop and execute comprehensive verification plans for complex SoC and subsystem designs based on functional specifications
Design, build, and maintain reusable UVM-based verification environments using SystemVerilog
Develop constrained-random test cases, sequences, scoreboards, monitors, assertions, and coverage models to achieve comprehensive functional verification
Verify high-speed interface protocols with a strong focus on PCIe, while supporting additional protocols such as DDR, Ethernet, and other industry-standard interfaces where applicable
Perform SoC-level integration verification, subsystem verification, and IP-level verification activities
Execute functional and regression testing, analyze failures, perform root cause analysis, and resolve verification issues efficiently
Drive functional coverage, code coverage, assertion coverage, and coverage closure to achieve verification sign-off targets
Collaborate with RTL, architecture, physical design, and validation teams to resolve design issues and improve product quality
Develop and enhance reusable verification components and methodologies to improve verification productivity across projects
Participate in verification reviews, design reviews, and technical discussions to ensure verification completeness and quality
Support post-silicon validation teams by reproducing and debugging functional issues when required

What Makes You a Great Fit

5+ years of experience in SoC Design Verification within semiconductor or ASIC/SoC development environments
Strong hands-on expertise in SystemVerilog and UVM verification methodology
Proven experience in SoC Verification, subsystem verification, and reusable UVM testbench development
Strong experience verifying high-speed protocols, particularly PCIe
Good understanding of additional industry-standard protocols such as DDR, Ethernet, AMBA (AXI/AHB/APB), or similar interfaces
Experience with constrained-random verification, assertions (SVA), functional coverage, code coverage, and regression management
Proficiency using industry-standard simulators such as Synopsys VCS, Cadence Xcelium, or Siemens Questa
Strong debugging, analytical, and problem-solving skills with the ability to identify and resolve complex verification challenges
Familiarity with scripting languages such as Python, Perl, or Shell is an advantage
Excellent communication and collaboration skills with the ability to work effectively across cross-functional engineering teams
A proactive mindset with a strong commitment to quality, innovation, and delivering robust verification solutions for next-generation semiconductor products
