Responsibilities

The core responsibilities include:

• Develop and execute functional verification plans to validate microarchitecture and IP logic.
• Create and maintain test benches and verification environments using OOP/OVM/UVM and SystemVerilog testbench techniques.
• Run system simulations to analyze power, timing, and functionality; identify and debug pre-silicon issues.
• Collaborate with architects, RTL and physical design engineers to resolve design and verification issues.
• Root cause failing test cases and implement corrective measures.
• Improve and maintain verification infrastructure and methodologies.
• Document test plans, verification strategies, and results; participate in technical reviews.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills and abilities:

• Proficiency with hardware description languages and verification testbenches: Verilog or VHDL and SystemVerilog testbench.
• Foundational understanding of digital design principles and verification methodologies.
• Familiarity with verification tools such as ModelSim or Synopsys VCS.
• Strong analytical and debugging skills with a problem-solving mindset.

Nice-to-have:

• Prior internships, academic projects, or experience in IP development or verification.
• Familiarity with advanced verification methodologies (UVM, OVM, or similar frameworks).
• Effective communication and teamwork skills; motivation to learn in a fast-evolving environment.

Education Requirements

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field (as stated). No other degree or certification requirements were specified.
