About the Role

We are seeking a highly motivated Digital Verification Engineer to join our team developing digitally integrated circuits for Power Management Integrated Circuits (PMICs). These designs are at the core of high-efficiency energy solutions across a wide range of applications, from mobile and automotive to enterprise and IoT systems.

As a member of the team, you’ll ensure the functional correctness, robustness, and performance of our digital IP blocks and subsystems before silicon tape-out. You’ll work closely with design, architecture, and validation teams to verify critical control logic, digital interfaces, and mixed-signal interactions within the PMIC domain.

While familiarity and experience with UVM (Universal Verification Methodology) is a plus, it is not fully required. We are looking for candidates with a solid foundation in functional verification and a strong interest in working on mission-critical power management designs.

What You Will Do

• Develop, implement, and execute verification plans for digital blocks within PMICs
• Create and maintain test benches, verification environments, and regression tests
• Write directed and constrained-random tests to validate control logic, power state machines, and digital interfaces
• Analyze RTL designs and define appropriate coverage metrics
• Collaborate with analog/mixed-signal teams to verify digital-analog interactions
• Debug design and verification issues, triage simulation failures, and support design closure
• Contribute to verification infrastructure and methodology improvements
• Track and report verification metrics related to HDL code execution & corner cases

What You Will Bring

• BS or MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
• Minimum 6-8 years of experience in the field
• Solid understanding of digital logic design (e.g., power control logic, clock/power gating, I²C/SPI/PMBus protocols)
• Experience with Verilog/SystemVerilog and Cadence simulation tools
• Scripting skills (Python, Tcl, Perl, Shell) for automation and regression flows
• Knowledge of power management concepts (LDOs, DCDC converters, sequencing, protection circuits)
• Familiarity with UVM, SystemVerilog classes, or other verification methodologies
• Experience in mixed-signal verification or co-simulation environments

What Is Helpful

• Excellent analytical and debugging skills
• Effective communication and documentation habits
• Proactive, detail-oriented, and committed to high-quality work
• Comfortable working in cross-functional teams and fast-paced environments
