Job Title

Experienced Verification Engineer - System IP

Role Summary

Work on verification and microarchitecture for System IP at Arm's Budapest design centre. The role focuses on developing verification plans, environments and models to ensure functional correctness, performance, power and security targets for IP components.

You will collaborate with design, performance modelling, validation and implementation teams and implement tests and tooling using SystemVerilog/UVM, C and C++.

Experience Level

Mid-level. Post-degree industry experience is expected; no specific years of experience specified.

Responsibilities

Key responsibilities include:

• Contribute to System IP microarchitecture specification and design.
• Develop and maintain verification environments, tests and models using SystemVerilog/UVM, C and C++.
• Prototype and propose methodologies and tools to improve verification efficiency.
• Own verification plans and determine verification approach, coverage and closure criteria.
• Work with design, performance modelling, validation and implementation teams to meet functional, performance, power and area objectives.

Requirements

Core requirements and desirable skills.

• Experience in object-oriented software development (C++ or SystemVerilog).
• Experience with verification methodologies and debugging (SystemVerilog/UVM preferred).
• Theoretical knowledge of digital circuits, FPGAs and embedded software (C).
• Post-degree practical engineering or verification experience.
• Proficiency in written and spoken English.

Nice-to-have:

• Block-level RTL design and verification experience for ASIC or FPGA projects (SystemVerilog preferred).
• Scripting and tooling experience (Linux, Bash, Python).
• Exposure to full product development lifecycle: concept, specification, implementation, testing and release.
