UVM/SystemVerilog Design Verification Engineer

Job Title

UVM/SystemVerilog Design Verification Engineer

Role Summary

Responsible for full functional verification of a custom controller for analog components with interfaces including SPI, Ethernet and AXI. The role focuses on developing verification infrastructure, test plans, and coverage-driven verification to ensure design correctness and verification throughput.

Experience Level

Senior — requires approximately 8 years of verification experience.

Responsibilities

Primary duties include ownership of functional verification and building verification assets for unit and subsystem validation.

• Own functional verification for the custom controller design.
• Design and implement UVM/SystemVerilog verification environments and testbenches.
• Develop test plans for functional units and subsystems and implement test cases.
• Create monitors, scoreboards, checkers and models (including Python models) to validate behavior.
• Drive VIPs and other stimulus using UVM and Python-based tests.
• Analyze coverage across dimensions and close coverage gaps.
• Perform SDF and gate-level simulation (GLS) bring-up and related testing.

Requirements

Must-have technical experience and required skills.

• Minimum ~8 years of experience with verification methodologies and languages such as UVM and SystemVerilog.
• Experience developing and maintaining verification testbenches, test cases, and environments.
• Hands-on experience with SDF and gate-level (GLS) simulations.
• Experience with Ethernet, SPI and AXI interfaces.
• Proven ability to develop monitors, scoreboards, and verification infrastructure.

Nice-to-have

• High proficiency in Python for test generation and modeling.
• Experience with assertions, formal verification, or JTAG.
• Experience with analog and real-number modeling.
• Familiarity with general-purpose operating systems such as Linux or Android.

Education Requirements

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
