Job description

We are seeking experienced ASIC/FPGA Verification Engineers to join a high-performing electronic products team developing advanced digital ICs and SoCs for mission-critical applications. In this role, you will contribute to the verification of complex ASIC and FPGA designs, working closely with cross-functional engineering teams to ensure high-quality, reliable hardware solutions. Key Responsibilities

  • Design and implement ASIC/FPGA verification environments using SystemVerilog and UVM.
  • Develop reusable, self-checking testbenches from the ground up utilizing Object-Oriented Programming concepts such as inheritance and polymorphism.
  • Create and maintain verification components including drivers, monitors, predictors, scoreboards, and test sequences.
  • Develop functional coverage models and perform code coverage analysis to ensure verification completeness.
  • Establish and execute regression testing frameworks while collecting and analyzing coverage metrics.
  • Support FPGA prototyping, integration, and validation activities based on system and program requirements.
  • Collaborate with design, systems, and test engineering teams to develop effective verification strategies and ensure project success.
  • Participate in debugging and root-cause analysis using waveform and simulation debug tools.
  • Contribute to the definition and review of ASIC/FPGA specifications to ensure they are accurate, testable, and verifiable.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering (Electrical, Electronics, Computer, Mechanical, Aeronautical, or related disciplines), Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Data Science, or an equivalent technical field.
  • Proven experience in ASIC/FPGA verification.
  • Strong understanding of verification methodologies using SystemVerilog and UVM.
  • Experience developing verification architectures and supporting production-quality ASIC/FPGA releases.
  • Proficiency in SystemVerilog, including SystemVerilog Assertions (SVA).
  • Experience creating and executing detailed verification test plans.
  • Strong knowledge of Object-Oriented Programming concepts, including inheritance and polymorphism.
  • Ability to develop reusable and self-checking testbench environments.
  • Experience with functional coverage development and code coverage closure.
  • Ability to work closely with design and systems engineering teams to define and verify hardware specifications.
  • Experience using waveform debugging and simulation analysis tools.
  • Knowledge of revision control systems such as Git, SVN, or CVS.
  • Comfortable working in Linux-based development environments., * 10+ years of relevant ASIC/FPGA verification experience.
  • Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field.
  • Experience with hardware integration and testing of ASIC/FPGA designs.
  • Hands-on experience with hardware emulation platforms, particularly Cadence Palladium.
  • Experience verifying high-speed interfaces such as PCIe, Ethernet, and JESD204C.
  • Proficiency in scripting languages such as Python, Perl, Shell, and Make.
  • Familiarity with radiation mitigation techniques and space-grade electronic design practices.
  • Demonstrated track record of achieving successful first-pass ASIC silicon validation.

Desired Skills

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
  • Ability to work effectively in a fast-paced engineering environment.
  • Experience supporting complex digital hardware development programs from concept through production.
