SOC Design Verification Engineer
Santa Clara, CA
We are seeking an experienced SoC Design Verification Engineer with a strong background in UVM-based verification and SystemVerilog to join our dynamic engineering team. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience in developing and executing complex verification environments, integrating C/C++ models, and debugging issues at both IP and subsystem levels.
Key Responsibilities:
-
Develop, implement, and maintain UVM-based verification environments for SoC and IP-level designs.
-
Write and execute SystemVerilog assertions to validate design functionality and performance.
-
Integrate C/C++ reference models within verification testbenches and ensure seamless co-simulation.
-
Perform debugging at IP and subsystem levels, identifying and resolving functional and timing issues.
-
Collaborate with design, architecture, and validation teams to define verification plans, strategies, and coverage goals.
-
Review and analyze waveforms, simulation logs, and coverage reports to ensure thorough verification closure.
-
Participate in regression management, bug tracking, and documentation for design verification deliverables.
Required Qualifications:
-
Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.
-
10+ years of hands-on experience in SoC or IP-level design verification.
-
Strong proficiency in SystemVerilog, UVM methodology, and assertion-based verification (ABV).
-
Experience integrating C/C++ models in verification environments.
-
Proven debugging skills at both IP and subsystem levels using industry-standard EDA tools (e.g., Synopsys VCS, Cadence Xcelium, or Mentor Questa).
Good to Have:
-
Gate-Level Simulation (GLS) and post-silicon verification exposure.
-
Experience with Low Power Verification (UPF / CPF) methodologies.
-
Familiarity with ARM-based SoC architectures and interconnect verification.
California Pay Range
$160,000 - $180,000 USD
