Staff Engineer - SoC Design Verification
Analog DevicesJob Title
Staff Engineer - SoC Design Verification
Role Summary
Lead verification strategy and delivery for complex digital and mixed-signal SoC designs within the verification organization in Bangalore. This role architects UVM-based environments, drives verification closure, and mentors engineers.
The position involves cross-functional coordination with design and validation teams, post-silicon support, and occasional customer-facing interaction. Travel up to ~10% is expected.
Experience Level
Senior — recommended 7–10+ years of relevant digital design verification experience, with emphasis on mixed-signal verification.
Responsibilities
Primary responsibilities include developing verification architecture, ensuring coverage-driven closure, and providing technical leadership.
- Architect and lead verification strategy for complex digital and mixed-signal SoC designs.
- Design and implement UVM-based verification environments and comprehensive test plans.
- Lead complex debugging across RTL and gate-level simulations and develop resolutions.
- Drive functional and code coverage closure using advanced verification methodologies.
- Coordinate with design teams to define verification requirements and sign-off criteria.
- Lead post-silicon validation efforts and provide technical customer support as needed.
- Mentor and develop junior verification engineers; influence methodology adoption across teams.
- Collaborate with cross-domain teams to achieve verification quality; travel ~10%.
Requirements
Must-have technical skills and experience:
- Expert SystemVerilog and UVM skills for architecting advanced verification environments.
- Proven ability to develop test plans and apply coverage-driven verification methodologies.
- Strong practical knowledge of mixed-signal verification techniques.
- Advanced debugging skills across multiple design abstractions (RTL, gate-level).
- Experience with EDA toolflows (Cadence, Synopsys) and formal verification techniques.
- Proficiency in scripting for automation (Python, Perl, TCL, Shell).
- Demonstrated technical leadership and mentoring capability.
- Exposure to SoC verification use-cases and excellent debug skills.
Education Requirements
Preferred: MS or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field (listed as preferred in the source). No explicit Bachelor's-or-equivalent language appeared in the posting.
