Data Fabric Verification Engineer — SystemVerilog/UVM Expert

Job Title

Data Fabric Verification Engineer — SystemVerilog/UVM Expert

Role Summary

Work on the verification team in Austin, TX to develop and execute verification plans for a data fabric / interconnect design. The role focuses on building UVM/SystemVerilog testbenches, running regressions, debugging RTL issues, and meeting verification quality metrics.

This is a hands-on engineering role requiring cross-functional coordination with design and software teams to close coverage and ensure silicon readiness.

Experience Level

Mid-level. Target candidate has approximately 5–20 years of verification experience, able to independently develop SystemVerilog/UVM testbenches and lead verification tasks.

Responsibilities

Key responsibilities include:

• Design and implement SystemVerilog/UVM testbenches and verification IP.
• Write directed and constrained-random tests, checkers, and assertions.
• Define and track coverage metrics; drive coverage closure to targets.
• Run regressions, analyze failures, and debug root causes at the RTL level.
• Collaborate with RTL designers and software engineers to resolve issues and iterate on verification plans.
• Automate verification flows and maintain regression infrastructure using scripting.
• Prepare verification reports and present verification status and quality metrics.

Requirements

Must-have skills and experience:

• Strong expertise in SystemVerilog and UVM.
• Practical experience with functional verification tools (simulators, coverage analysis).
• 5+ years of ASIC/SoC verification experience (source specifies 5–20 years).
• Experience developing constrained-random tests, assertions, and coverage-driven methodologies.
• Familiarity with version control, regression automation, and scripting (Python, Tcl, Perl) for test automation.
• Effective communication and ability to work with cross-functional engineering teams.

Nice-to-have:

• Experience with Data/Infinity Fabric or complex interconnect verification.
• Experience with emulation or hardware-assisted verification platforms.

Education Requirements

Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field is preferred.
