Associate Engineer, ASIC Design Verification
6 Days Old
Location: San Jose (this is an on-site position)
Summary:
This role is responsible for pre-Si verification and validation of complex SoCs with both high-speed custom and digital blocks. You will work in a dynamic startup environment as part of a small IC design team. The ideal candidate is a hands-on self-starter who can craft design specifications, verification suites and test-benches based on input from colleagues, customers, and industry and who can effectively manage his or her own time to take projects to completion with limited supervision and guidance.
Essential Functions:
- Develop verification methodology and testbenches for digital and mixed-signal blocks
- Test plan, coverage analysis and closure for parallel link and SerDes IP blocks and on-chip interconnects
- Design and contribute to design for test (DFT) methodologies
Basic Qualifications:
- BS, MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or equivalent
- Knowledge of ASIC verification experience
- System Verilog, UVM testbench development for design verification of complex digital and PHY blocks (in AMS and WREAL modeling verification)
- Scripting/programming skills
Preferred Qualifications:
- Experience working on digital designs with multiple clock domains and clock dividers
- Post- place-and-route functional verification (NCSIM, VCS, ModelSim)
- Experience in verification of SerDes IP block interfaces in a complex SoC fabric environment
- Experience in verification of the PCS, PMA SerDes layers and internal SerDes digital backends
- Experience with verification of HBM memory interfaces (PHY and controller)
- Experience in formal model equivalence checking tools and verification methodology
- Programming experience in Python
Pay Range is $120K to $136k
