Key Responsibilities
Verification Environment Development: Develop and maintain SystemVerilog/UVM verification environments, including agents, sequences, monitors, scoreboards, reference models, assertions, and functional coverage.
SoC Verification: Verify SoC functionality involving embedded processors, memories, interconnects, interrupts, DMA controllers, peripherals, communication interfaces, and mixed-signal subsystems.
Verification Planning: Contribute to verification plans by translating design and product requirements into test scenarios, coverage items, and verification objectives.
Test Development: Develop directed and constrained-random tests for block-level, subsystem-level, and SoC-level verification.
Processor-Based Verification: Develop and execute verification scenarios for microprocessor-based SoCs, including processor initialization, register accesses, interrupts, exceptions, boot sequences, and basic firmware interactions.
C DPI Integration: Develop and maintain C/SystemVerilog DPI interfaces and integrate C-based models or reference functions into simulation environments.
E2B Functionality: Verify E2B communication functionality, including configuration, control, data transfer, timing behavior, error handling, diagnostics, and recovery scenarios.
Coverage and Metrics: Analyze functional, code, and assertion coverage; identify verification gaps; and develop additional tests to support verification closure.
Regression Execution: Execute and monitor verification regressions, analyze failures, classify issues, and communicate results to the project team.
Debugging: Analyze and resolve verification failures across testbenches, RTL, embedded C code, reference models, and system-level scenarios.
Functional Safety Support: Contribute to verification of automotive safety mechanisms, fault injection tests, requirements traceability, and verification evidence for ISO 26262-related activities.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work with design, architecture, firmware, functional safety, validation, and applications teams to resolve technical issues and support project milestones.
Documentation: Create and maintain clear documentation covering verification plans, testcases, coverage results, known issues, and verification status.
Automation: Develop scripts to automate regression execution, results analysis, coverage reporting, and other verification workflows.
Technical Reviews: Participate in design, architecture, verification plan, and code reviews, providing verification-focused feedback.
