Senior Verification Engineer

DPP is seeking a Senior Verification Engineer for an opportunity with our client in the Aerospace industry.

Work Location: Fully remote
Duration: 8 months
Terms: W2 Contract

Position Summary:

• As a Senior Verification Engineer on the ASIC & Networking team you support clients first in-house silicon program which comprises a high-throughput modem and a DSP-intensive digital beamformer with first tape out targeted for 2027.
• Verification strategy methodology and infrastructure are being defined now and you help define them.
• The work spans IP subsystem and full SoC verification including CPU subsystems performance-critical interconnects security high-speed peripherals modem datapath and PHY layers DSP and beamforming compute and mixed-signal interfaces.
• You own a subset of this scope aligned to your background.
• The team treats constrained-random simulation formal methods and processor-driven SoC testing as equal first-class tools and is building an AI-enabled verification platform that includes LLM-assisted stimulus and testbench generation automated regression triage and failure clustering and data-driven coverage closure.
• Because none of this is inherited the engineers who build these capabilities will own them - and grow with the program as it scales.
• Background in wireless communications modem baseband and DSP verification is welcome but not required.
• Architects and modeling engineers support your ramp and verification judgment and system-level thinking are weighted above domain background.

Responsibilities:

• Own verification planning and execution for complex blocks and subsystems from test plan through sign-off.
• Translate design specifications into verification strategies measurable coverage goals and early identification of high-risk scenarios.
• Select verification methods for each problem including constrained-random simulation formal analysis and directed testing.
• Develop verification environments reference models scoreboards protocol monitors coverage components and assertions.
• Drive functional coverage closure regression health and sign-off readiness across simulation and formal results.
• Build verification infrastructure regression and CI systems and reuse strategy across IP subsystem and SoC levels.
• Apply and build AI-assisted verification capabilities for stimulus generation regression triage and coverage analytics.
• Review testbench architecture and debug methodology and mentor junior engineers in verification methodology.

Required Qualifications:

• Bachelors degree in Electrical Engineering Computer Engineering or related field or 7 years equivalent experience.
• Minimum five years of professional experience in ASIC or SoC functional verification.
• Hands-on expertise in SystemVerilog UVM or formal testbench development and maintenance.
• Experience with metric-driven verification for planning assertions and functional coverage closure.
• Experience verifying complex digital control and datapath logic including RTL and system-level debug.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Background in space-based communications wireless communications modem baseband or DSP hardware.
• Experience verifying LDPC FEC framing or beamforming logic using bit-accurate reference models and fixed-point analysis.
• Formal verification experience on production silicon including connectivity register maps arbitration CDC or security properties.
• Experience with interconnect or NoC verification covering performance bandwidth QoS and deadlock analysis.
• Experience verifying fault tolerance and reliability features such as ECC redundancy schemes or fault injection.
• Experience developing C-based or portable stimulus for SoC CPU boot and firmware-driven test scenarios.
• Experience applying AI ML or LLM tooling to stimulus generation regression triage or coverage analysis.
