Principal ASIC Verification Engineer

Job Title

Principal ASIC Verification Engineer

Role Summary

Lead verification architecture, methodology, and execution for ASIC/VLSI projects across the Global Business Unit. Provide technical leadership, review designs, define verification strategy, and mentor engineering teams to deliver complex integrated-circuit solutions.

Work focuses on improving verification quality, time-to-market, and technical direction for multiple projects and product lines.

Experience Level

Senior — typically requires 10+ years of relevant VLSI/ASIC verification or design experience.

Responsibilities

Primary responsibilities include:

• Define organization-wide VLSI/ASIC verification architectures, methodologies, and standards.
• Lead technical direction and verification strategy for multiple projects and platforms.
• Review and evaluate VLSI designs and verification activities for compliance with technical and development guidelines.
• Provide technical leadership and accountability across project teams; influence executive decisions and outsourced partners.
• Mentor and guide less-experienced engineers and participate in selecting future technical leaders.
• Identify emerging VLSI technologies and assess their impact; propose new projects and programs.

Requirements

Must-have:

• Extensive experience in ASIC/VLSI verification and digital logic design at scale.
• Mastery of verification methodologies and EDA tool flows (simulation, testbench development, metrics).
• Proficiency with hardware description languages (e.g., SystemVerilog/Verilog) and scripting/programming (e.g., Python, Tcl).
• Proven track record of technical leadership on complex projects and ability to influence cross-functional teams.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills and excellent written and verbal communication in English.
• US citizenship preferred (due to program/export/security needs).

Nice-to-have:

• Patents, publications, or prior technical presentations in VLSI/Electronic hardware design.
• Experience with FPGA tools, high-level architecture verification, or formal verification methods.
• Experience participating in standards bodies or defining industry standards.

Education Requirements

Bachelor's, Master's, or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field — or equivalent practical experience. Background or coursework in VLSI design or related topics is expected.
