NOC Design Verification Sr Lead Engineer

Overview

Verification Architect/Engineer responsible for verifying next-generation infrastructure IPs (DDRSS, Memory Controllers etc.) that go into SoCs for smartphones, tablets and other product categories.

What you'll do

• Plan and implement IP/Cluster/Formal verification flows for the Infra IPs.
• Coordinate with different Design and SoC teams throughout the IP development cycle.
• Own the DV test bench and associated collaterals (Checkers, Trackers, Scoreboards, Assertion, Functional Coverage).
• Develop test plan and test cases to cover design feature set, and follow up with stakeholders on code coverage and functional coverage closure at different levels of test bench.
• Work closely with System Architects, Design and emulation teams on failure debugs and code/functional coverage closure.
• Debug regression signatures and identify bug fixes.
• Be responsible for quality sign off and required documentation.
• Develop/deploy scripts/tools for validation (Certitude, VC Formal, VPlan).
• Debug and root cause post-silicon issues in collaboration with Design, SW and test teams.
• Work with the SoC-level performance modeling team on latency and bandwidth analysis.

What you'll need

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Engineering, or related field and 3+ years of Hardware Engineering or related work experience, OR Master's degree in the same fields and 2+ years of Hardware Engineering or related work experience, OR PhD in the same fields and 1+ year of Hardware Engineering or related work experience.
• Strong debugging, analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Expertise in UVM based verification.
• Knowledge of ARM bus protocols, virtual memory concepts and SoC system architecture.
• Experience developing Monitors, Scoreboards and Sequencers using scripts, SystemVerilog, UVM and methodologies to increase the rate at which bugs are found and resolved.
• Communication and collaboration skills to work with a large worldwide design organization.
• Bachelor/Master's Degree in Electronics & Communication / Micro Electronics.
• 3+ years of experience in IP verification or related.
• Experience with UVM and ARM bus protocols.

Nice to have

• Experience in designs optimized for low power (dynamic clock gating, logic/memory power collapse).
• Experience verifying designs meeting Automotive Safety Integrity Levels (ASIL).
• Proficiency in scripting languages (Python or Perl) for automation initiatives, and C/C++/SystemC for performance models.
• Post-si bring-up and HW-SW debug experience.
• Knowledge of and exposure to silicon debug tool chains.
