Job Summary
We are seeking a CAD Engineer specializing in Digital Verification to build, enhance, and support scalable verification infrastructure, methodologies, and EDA automation flows for ASIC/SoC development.
The role focuses on enabling verification teams with robust regression systems, automation frameworks, and advanced methodologies (UVM, coverage, Continuous Integration flows) to improve productivity, debug efficiency, and time-to-tapeout.
Digital Verification CAD Support & Methodology Enablement
Act as the primary support interface for Design & Verification (DV) teams to troubleshoot issues in simulation, regression, coverage, and debug flows
Collaborate with DV teams to identify bottlenecks and provide practical solutions or workarounds
Support adoption of modern verification techniques (coverage-driven, formal, emulation) through guidance and issue resolution
Deploy, integrate, and maintain CAD tools, scripts, and environments supporting digital verification flows
Provide day-to-day support for EDA tools (VCS, Xcelium, Verdi, vManager, etc.) and resolve tool/flow-related issues
Work closely with EDA vendors (Cadence, Synopsys, Siemens) to track, debug, and escalate tool issues, and support tool evaluations and rollouts
Support and maintain regression and CI/CD systems, ensuring stable execution and timely issue resolution
Monitor and optimize infrastructure usage (compute farms, LSF environments) to ensure efficient job execution and resource utilization
Analyze DV flow issues and performance bottlenecks, and provide improvements or recommendations for optimization
Partner with DV, RTL design, and system teams to resolve cross-functional issues impacting verification flows
Provide methodology guidance, user support, and training to verification engineers on tools and flows
Maintain and contribute to documentation, best practices, and support guidelines for verification flows
Required Qualifications
Bachelor’s / master’s degree in Electronics Engineering
8–12 years of experience in Digital Verification / CAD / Engineering Support-related roles
Strong understanding of digital verification flow (simulation, regression, coverage, debug)
Hands-on experience with System Verilog and UVM (for debugging/support perspective)
Proficiency in scripting/programming (Python, Tcl, Perl, or similar)
Experience in Linux-based environments
Experience with EDA tools (VCS, Xcelium, Verdi, vManager, etc.)
Exposure to regression environments, CI/CD systems, and compute farm usage
Familiarity with AI/ML-based DV tools (e.g., Cadence Verisium AI) is a plus
Basic understanding of SoC/ASIC architecture and RTL design concepts
Required Interpersonal Skills
Strong communication skills with the ability to interact effectively across teams
Proven ability to collaborate with design, verification, IT and infrastructure teams
Experience working in multi-cultural global environments and coordinating with globally distributed teams
Nice-to-Have
Exposure to AI-assisted verification workflows / LLM-based tools and AI Agents development.
Experience with cloud-based or distributed regression environments
Interest in automating repetitive support workflows across DV flows using scripting or AI-based approaches
Experience as CAD Application Engineer in EDA vendor company
