Responsibilities
As a Lead IC Verification Engineer on the Modem team, you will
Develop and maintain SystemVerilog/UVM-based verification environments for modem digital baseband and PHY-layer IPs.
Design and implement module-level and subsystem-level testbenches, including drivers, monitors, agents, scoreboards, and coverage models.
Define and execute comprehensive verification plans to ensure functional correctness and design quality.
Drive constrained-random verification, functional coverage, and coverage closure.
Perform bit-exact verification by integrating C-based algorithmic reference models into verification environments.
Verify complex mixed-signal datapath and PHY-layer modules used in wireless communication systems.
Debug complex RTL and testbench issues, working closely with design and system engineering teams to identify root causes.
Collaborate across functional teams to resolve integration challenges and ensure successful IP verification and delivery.
Participate in design reviews, verification planning, and continuous improvement of verification methodologies.
Skills You Will Need
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics, Communication Engineering, or a related field.
7–15 years of experience in RTL Design Verification, preferably involving mixed-signal datapath, modem baseband, or PHY-layer modules.
Strong hands-on expertise in SystemVerilog and UVM verification methodologies.
Experience developing UVM testbench components such as agents, drivers, monitors, scoreboards, and coverage models.
Strong understanding of constrained-random testing, functional coverage, and coverage closure.
Experience integrating C-based reference models for bit-exact functional verification.
Good understanding of digital communication systems and PHY-layer concepts.
Strong debugging, problem-solving, and cross-functional collaboration skills.
Skills That Will Make You Stand Out
Experience with IEEE 802.11 Wi-Fi, 4G/5G cellular, or other OFDM-based communication systems.
Hands-on experience verifying wireless modem baseband and digital signal processing IPs.
Knowledge of DSP blocks such as FFT, FIR filters, correlators, and FEC decoders.
Experience working with mixed-signal verification environments and digital/analog interfaces.
Experience with subsystem-level verification and integration of complex IPs into wireless SoCs.
Ability to independently own verification activities and drive complex debugging and coverage closure.
"Experience with artificial intelligence (AI) powered tools and technologies used to enhance productivity, analysis, and decision-making"
