Verification Engineer - PCIE
NVIDIAJob Title
Verification Engineer - PCIE
Role Summary
Verify PCI Express controller IP and subsystem designs for NVIDIA GPUs and SoCs, ensuring correctness of ASIC architecture, micro-architecture and implementation using coverage-driven verification methodologies.
Work within the NVIDIA Graphics verification team in Bengaluru, collaborating with architects, RTL designers, and pre- and post-silicon teams to drive verification and debug.
Experience Level
Entry-level; requires approximately 2+ years of relevant verification experience.
Responsibilities
Primary responsibilities include:
- Plan and execute IP/subsystem-level verification for PCIe controllers, covering architecture, golden models and micro-architecture.
- Develop test plans, constrained-random tests, and the verification infrastructure.
- Implement reusable bus functional models (BFMs), monitors, checkers and scoreboards following coverage-driven methodology.
- Use DV methodologies (UVM/VMM) and industry-standard simulation and debug tools to identify and diagnose issues.
- Collaborate with architects, designers, and pre/post-silicon verification teams to close verification cycles.
Requirements
Core qualifications (must-have and nice-to-have):
Must-have:
- Verification experience at unit/subsystem/SOC level using Verilog and SystemVerilog.
- Experience with functional coverage–based constrained-random verification.
- Experience with DV methodologies such as UVM or VMM and industry-standard simulation/debug tools.
- Experience verifying IP or interconnect protocols (e.g., PCI Express, USB, SATA).
- Ability to build reusable verification components (BFMs, monitors, scoreboards) and drive coverage closure.
Nice-to-have:
- Familiarity with PCIe protocol Gen3 and above.
- Strong testbench development skills in SystemVerilog.
- Scripting experience in Python, Perl, or similar for automation and debug.
- Strong debugging and analytical problem-solving skills.
Education Requirements
B.Tech. or M.Tech. is specified in the posting; specific field not listed. The posting indicates ~2+ years of relevant experience. No alternative "equivalent experience" language was provided.
