Senior SoC/NoC Verification Engineer
We are seeking a highly experienced SoC/NoC Functional Verification Engineer with a strong background in verifying complex System-on-Chip (SoC) architectures. The ideal candidate will have successfully verified 7–10 SoCs throughout their career and demonstrated deep expertise in UVM‑SystemVerilog-based environments, SVA, and testbench development.
You will play a key technical role in defining verification strategies, building scalable testbenches, driving verification closure, and mentoring junior engineers.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead and execute functional verification of complex SoC/NoC designs from specification through tape‑out.
- Develop, enhance, and maintain UVM-based verification environments in SystemVerilog.
- Create comprehensive test plans, testbenches, assertions (SVA), coverage models, and checkers.
- Verify and validate AMBA (AXI, AHB, APB), DDR, MIPI, and various peripheral interfaces (JTAG, I²C, SPI, etc.).
- Perform debug and root‑cause analysis on design and testbench issues, collaborating closely with RTL designers and architects.
- Define and drive coverage closure strategies to meet verification quality goals.
- Contribute to verification methodology improvements and automation frameworks.
- Mentor junior verification engineers and contribute to technical reviews.
Required Qualifications
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
- 10+ years of hands‑on experience in SoC/NoC functional verification.
- Proven track record of verifying 7–10 SoCs across multiple technology nodes or product lines.
- Deep expertise in UVM (Universal Verification Methodology), SystemVerilog, and SVA (SystemVerilog Assertions).
- Constrained random and coverage‑driven verification experience.
- Strong understanding of industry‑standard protocols including AMBA (AXI, AHB, APB), DDR memory interfaces, high‑speed interfaces (MIPI, PCIe, etc.), and peripheral interfaces (JTAG, I²C, SPI, UART, etc.).
- Experience with simulation tools (e.g., Synopsys VCS, Cadence Xcelium, Mentor Questa) and debug tools.
