Job Summary
We are seeking a Design Verification Engineer to join our Internal IP DV team. You will ensure the custom IPs powering our chips - including systolic arrays, DMA engines, and NoCs - are robust, high-performance, and silicon-ready. This role demands creativity, deep technical ability, and the drive to tackle complex verification challenges. You will collaborate with architects, RTL designers, and SW/FW/emulation teams to validate correctness and performance across the full hardware-software stack.
Key responsibilities
- Develop and maintain UVM/SystemVerilog testbenches for high-performance IPs (compute arrays, DMAs, NoCs, memory subsystems).
- Define and execute verification plans covering functional correctness, corner cases, concurrency, and performance bottlenecks.
- Debug complex datapath and protocol issues in RTL and testbench environments.
- Work closely with architects and designers to validate functionality and design intent.
- Partner with SW, FW, and emulation teams to ensure end-to-end bring-up and debug coverage.
- Contribute to reusable DV infrastructure, coverage models, and methodology improvements.
You may be a good fit if you have
- Pr oficiency with UVM and System Verilog.
- Strong debugging and problem-solving skills for complex digital designs.
- Solid knowledge of computer architecture and digital design fundamentals.
- Hands-on experience verifying datapaths, memory systems, interconnects, or high-throughput fabrics.
Strong candidates may also have experience with
- Familiarity with System Verilog Assertions (SVA) and formal verification techniques.
- Experience verifying systolic arrays, DMA engines, or NoC/AXI protocols.
- Scripting skills (Python/Perl/TCL or similar) for automation, debug and regression flows.
