Job Title

Senior Design Verification Engineer

Role Summary

Senior Design Verification Engineer on the Silicon team responsible for planning and executing verification of IP blocks, subsystems and full chips. Work includes development of UVM/SystemVerilog testbenches, assertion- and formal-based verification, coverage analysis, and verification infrastructure.

Collaborate with design, IP and software teams to meet aggressive tapeout and quality targets. Position is located in Manila and requires right to work in the Philippines.

Experience Level

Senior-level; typically 6–10 years of digital design verification experience.

Responsibilities

Primary responsibilities include verification planning, execution, automation, and cross-team collaboration.

• Develop comprehensive verification plans, metrics, and progress tracking.
• Verify design blocks, subsystems and full chip using assertion-based, formal, directed and randomized tests.
• Implement SystemVerilog and C-based UVM testbenches and verification components (UVCs, BFMs).
• Design and maintain regression and automation environments.
• Perform functional, RTL, assertion and gate-level coverage analysis and simulations.
• Develop verification tools and scripts to improve productivity and repeatability.
• Collaborate with design, IP and software teams to debug issues and achieve verification closure.
• Define and propagate verification best practices for SoC projects.

Requirements

Must-have skills and practical experience.
