Verification Engineer II

Job Title

Verification Engineer II

Role Summary

Develop and execute verification solutions for advanced SoCs used in video, image processing, computer vision, and edge AI applications. Work on verification plans, testbenches, and automation to validate DSP blocks, control logic, processor cores, compression engines, and neural network processors.

Experience Level

Mid-level. Specific years of experience not stated.

Responsibilities

Primary verification responsibilities and collaboration expectations:

• Develop and maintain verification testbenches using SystemVerilog, UVM, Verilog, C/C++, and Python.
• Create and execute verification plans for DSP blocks, control logic, processor cores, and specialized accelerators.
• Verify image processing pipeline components, video input subsystems, compression engines, and neural network processors.
• Develop directed and constrained-random tests, assertions, checkers, and coverage models.
• Debug RTL and testbench failures, analyze simulation results, and resolve coverage gaps.
• Use and enhance agentic AI verification workflows for test generation, failure analysis, coverage improvement, and debugging automation.
• Develop Python scripts and utilities to automate verification and regression tasks.
• Collaborate with RTL design, architecture, and software teams to close verification issues.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills and experience:

• Strong understanding of digital logic design and computer architecture.
• Hands-on experience with Verilog/SystemVerilog and simulation-based verification.
• Familiarity with UVM, constrained-random testing, and functional coverage.
• Programming skills in Python and/or C/C++ for verification automation.
• Strong debugging and problem-solving skills; effective verbal and written communication.

Education Requirements

At least a Bachelor’s degree, preferably a Master’s, in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
