Staff IC Verification Engineer
BroadcomJob Title
Staff IC Verification Engineer
Role Summary
Join a SoC and IP verification team developing state-of-the-art subsystems for AI and storage chips. The role focuses on building verification environments and testbenches to validate system and sub-block designs.
Collaborate with cross-functional design teams to close coverage, debug failures, and ensure silicon quality for complex SoC projects.
Experience Level
Senior. Education-based guidance: typically Master’s in EE/CE/CS + 6 years experience or Bachelor’s in EE/CE/CS + 8 years experience.
Responsibilities
Primary responsibilities include developing and executing verification environments, tests, and debug flows:
- Develop verification environments using SystemVerilog and UVM
- Design UVM components such as sequences, agents, scoreboards, and behavioral models
- Implement coverage metrics and assertions in SystemVerilog
- Create constrained-random and directed testcases to close functional coverage
- Analyze simulation failures and coverage results; debug RTL and testbench issues
- Run and debug simulations with HDL simulators
- Act as a productive individual contributor and provide technical leadership on verification tasks
Requirements
Core technical and professional requirements.
- Expertise in HDL languages: SystemVerilog and Verilog/VHDL
- Experience with constrained-random verification using UVM, OVM, or VMM
- Experience developing verification environments and writing coverage and assertions
- Proficient with HDL simulators and simulation debug flows
- Familiarity with object-oriented languages and techniques (C++, Java)
- Strong problem-solving and critical-thinking skills
- Effective communication and ability to work in a matrix organization
- Demonstrated leadership and ability to act independently on new or special assignments
- Must have legal authorization to work in the United States; this position does not provide company-sponsored immigration support
Education Requirements
Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or Computer Science plus 8+ years of related experience; or Master’s degree in those fields plus 6+ years of related experience.
