Key Responsibilities
Team Leadership & Mentorship: Manage, inspire, and grow a team of high-performing design verification engineers. Foster a culture of technical excellence, continuous learning, and collaborative accountability.
Allocating resources effectively across multiple parallel chip/block schedules.
Verification Strategy & Architecture: Define global verification strategies, infrastructure, and execution plans for complex SoC and IP blocks. Own the testbench architecture from initial specifications down to structural sign-off.
Methodology Champion: Drive standard-setting execution using industry-best paradigms, ranging from advanced functional metric tracking to pioneering automated flows. Lead the team across block, sub-system, and full-chip verification environments.
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Align closely with Architecture, RTL Design, Physical Design, and Post-Silicon validation teams to identify coverage gaps, debug system-level failures, and ensure timely tape-out milestones.
Core Technical Domain Expertise
The ideal candidate is a hands-on technical authority capable of conducting rigorous code reviews, mentoring senior staff, and charting verification roadmaps across the following pillars:
Languages & Frameworks: Deep, expert-level fluency in SystemVerilog and Universal Verification
Methodology (UVM) architecture.
Formal Verification: Proven track record of leveraging formal methods to definitively
mathematically prove block-level assertions and catch deep corner-case bugs.
Emulation & Hardware Acceleration: Strategic experience utilizing emulation platforms (e.g., Palladium, Zebu, Veloce) to shift-left software integration and accelerate massive system-level test suites.
Qualifications
Education: Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a closely related technical field.
Verification Experience: 10+ years of deep, hands-on industry experience in pre-silicon ASIC/SoC Design Verification.
Management Experience: Must have 5+ years of dedicated engineering management or formal team leadership experience directly managing engineering headcount, performance reviews, and project delivery schedules.
Proven mastery of building scalable UVM-compliant testbenches from scratch.
Preferred Qualifications
Advanced Education: Master's degree or Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering or Computer Science.
AI/ML in Verification: Exposure to, or hands-on experience implementing, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning techniques within verification pipelines (e.g., using AI/ML for smart stimulus generation, coverage convergence acceleration, automated bug triage, or regression optimization).
Experience with multi-protocol high-speed interfaces (e.g., PCIe Gen6/7, CXL, HBM3, NVLink).
Demonstrated capability to manage globally distributed engineering teams.
