Design Verification WLAN - Sr Engineer

Overview

Drive design verification of next-generation SoCs with a focus on wireless technologies including WLAN (IEEE 802.11), performing IP and subsystem-level verification in collaboration with cross-functional teams.

What you'll do

• Develop and execute verification plans for complex SoC designs and IP blocks.
• Architect and implement testbenches using System Verilog and UVM/OVM methodologies.
• Perform RTL verification, simulation, and debugging.
• Collaborate with design, architecture, and software teams to ensure functional correctness.
• Contribute to IP design reviews and sign-off processes.
• Support post-silicon validation and bring-up activities.
• Analyze and verify interconnects, buses (e.g., AMBA AXI/AHB/APB), and bridges for performance and protocol compliance.
• Conduct CPU subsystem verification (ARM/RISCV) including coherency, cache behavior, and interrupt handling.
• Perform power-aware verification using UPF/CPF and validate low-power design intent.
• Execute performance verification to ensure bandwidth, latency, and throughput targets are met.
• Perform Gate level and Timing Simulations to sign off on Timing closure.
• Analyze and verify serial peripherals like (UART/SDIO/SPI) and validate the Datapath integrity.

What you'll need

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Engineering, or related field and 2+ years of Hardware Engineering or related work experience, OR Master's degree in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Engineering, or related field and 1+ year of Hardware Engineering or related work experience, OR PhD in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Engineering, or related field.
• Relevant experience in hardware design verification.

Nice to have

• 4–10 years of experience in digital design and verification.
• Deep understanding of bus protocols and bridge logic, including hands-on experience with AXI, AHB, and APB.
• Experience with CPU (ARM/RISCV) subsystem verification and performance modeling.
• Familiarity with wireless protocols (IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac/ax/be).
• Proficiency in SystemVerilog, UVM/OVM, Verilog, and scripting languages (Perl, Tcl, Python).
• Experience with power-aware verification methodologies and tools (e.g., UPF, CPF).
• Familiarity with performance verification techniques and metrics.
• Exposure to tools like Clearcase/Perforce and simulation/debug environments.
• Strong analytical, debugging, and communication skills.
