• Work closely with design, software, and architecture teams to verify the SoC designs under test.
• Create detailed SoC test plans, build testbenches, design test cases, and achieve complete functional coverage.
• Manage regression testing and aid in developing verification infrastructure.
• Design both directed and random verification tests to thoroughly vet the SoC.
• Investigate test failures, diagnose root causes, and coordinate with RTL and firmware engineers to fix design and test issues.
• Analyze functional and code coverage data, refining or adding tests and applying constraints to meet coverage goals.

Preferred Experience & Qualifications

• Expertise in SoC and IP-level ASIC and FPGA verification methodologies.
• Deep understanding of SoC architectures.
• Proficiency with Verilog/SystemVerilog, C/C++, and scripting languages such as Perl or Python.
• Mandatory hands-on experience with SystemVerilog and Universal Verification Methodology (UVM).
• Proven ability to develop UVM-based verification testbenches, processes, and flows.
• Strong grasp of design flows, verification methodologies, and computational logic design and analysis.
• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Engineering or Electrical Engineering with relevant professional experience.
