The role
Job description
Role Overview
We are seeking a highly skilled Senior SoC Verification Engineer with 6+ years of hands-on experience in complex SoC verification. The ideal candidate has strong expertise in UVM-based environments, deep understanding of SoC architecture, and practical experience verifying application processors, AI accelerators, or other high-performance chips.
What You Will Do
Develop and execute verification plans for complex SoC subsystems and full-chip environments. Build, enhance, and maintain UVM-based verification environments, including agents, sequences, scoreboards, and coverage models.
Why It Might Be a Fit
This role focuses on technical depth rather than people management, requiring strong ownership, problem-solving ability, and broad protocol knowledge. Ability to work effectively in cross-functional and multi-site teams. Strong communication skills and ability to articulate technical issues clearly.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s/Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field
- 6+ years of hands-on experience in digital SoC verification
- Strong proficiency in SystemVerilog, UVM, constrained-random verification, and coverage-driven methodology
- Solid understanding of SoC architecture, memory hierarchy, cache systems, interconnects, and coherency concepts
- Broad familiarity with industry-standard protocols such as AXI, AHB, APB, PCIe, USB, DDR, LPDDR, MIPI, Ethernet, or similar
- Strong debugging skills using waveform tools, assertions, and simulation logs
- Hands-on experience with simulation, emulation, or acceleration platforms
