Engineer, Digital Design Verification

Job Title

Engineer, Digital Design Verification

Role Summary

Responsible for functional verification of high-speed digital subsystems within mixed-signal ICs in the Signal Integrity Product business unit. Work as part of a cross-functional team of digital, analog, firmware, validation and test engineers to define, verify and deliver silicon that meets product and performance requirements.

Experience Level

Entry-level / Early-career — minimum 2+ years relevant industry experience.

Responsibilities

Primary responsibilities include developing verification environments, executing verification plans, and improving verification methodology.

• Functional verification of high-speed digital circuits using constrained-random methodologies (e.g., UVM/OVM) and regression execution.
• Develop verification environments, testbenches and directed/random tests; debug RTL and testbench issues.
• Behavioral modeling and mixed-level simulation of analog/digital interactions.
• Document verification plans, test results and technical design artifacts.
• Coordinate with analog, firmware, system, validation and product teams to meet requirements and support product qualification.
• Provide technical guidance and mentorship to other engineers and contribute to project planning.
• Review and enhance verification methodologies and flows to improve productivity and coverage.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills and experience.

• Minimum 2+ years of relevant industry experience in digital design verification.
• Experience with constrained-random verification using UVM, OVM, AVM or VMM.
• Proficiency with SystemVerilog and object-oriented verification concepts preferred.
• Experience with scripting/programming (Python, TCL, Perl, C) and familiarity with PC and Unix/Linux environments.
• Knowledge of digital verification methods, testbench architecture and debug techniques.
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, verbal and written communication skills; ability to work independently and in teams.
• Organized, detail-oriented, and able to prioritize multiple tasks.

Nice-to-have:

• Experience modeling analog behavior and running mixed-level simulations.
• Experience supporting validation, test and product qualification activities.
• Prior mentoring or technical leadership experience.

Education Requirements

Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering.
