Hardware Verification Engineer

We are seeking a highly experienced Hardware Verification Engineer with extensive hands-on experience in block-level, IP-level, and SoC-level verification. You will leverage your proficiency in Verilog, SystemVerilog, and UVM-based testbenches, along with knowledge of industry-standard EDA tools, to ensure the robustness and functionality of complex hardware designs. This role requires strong problem-solving and communication skills, and an in-depth understanding of ARM AMBA protocols.

Hardware Verification Engineer

Roles & Responsibilities:

• Develop and execute comprehensive verification test plans for block-level, IP-level, and SoC-level designs.
• Create and maintain efficient UVM-based testbenches.
• Utilize Verilog and SystemVerilog for testbench development and assertion-based verification.
• Employ industry-standard EDA tools for simulation and debug to identify and resolve hardware design issues.
• Verify the functionality and performance of IPs for caches, cache coherency, memory subsystems, interconnects, and NoCs (Networks-on-Chip).
• Collaborate closely with design teams to understand architectural specifications and ensure verification coverage.
• Debug complex hardware and software interactions, contributing to root cause analysis.
• Potentially explore and apply formal verification techniques and emulation platforms.
• Ensure the quality and reliability of hardware designs prior to tape-out.

Qualifications and Preferred Skills:

• Strong hands-on experience in block-level/IP-level/SOC-level verification.
• Proficiency in Verilog, SystemVerilog.
• Familiarity with industry-standard EDA tools for simulation and debug.
• Deep experience with UVM-based testbenches.
• Experience with modern programming languages like Python.
• Knowledge of ARM AMBA protocols such as AXI, APB, and AHB.
• Understanding of ARM CHI protocol is a plus.
• Experience on working with IPs for caches, cache coherency, memory subsystems, interconnects and NOCs.
• Experience with formal verification techniques, emulation platforms is a plus.
• Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
• Strong communication and collaboration skills.

QUALIFICATION:

• BS, MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or Computer Science.
