About the Role

You will lead pre-silicon verification for compute, DDR memory, and Fabric NoC subsystems. You will build scalable verification environments, execute system-level tests, close coverage gaps, debug failures, automate flows, and mentor engineers.

Requirements

  • Expertise in UVM, SystemVerilog, coverage-driven verification, assertions, and subsystem-level debugging.
  • Experience verifying compute subsystems, DDR controllers, PHY-facing logic, NoC protocols, coherency, ordering, and data movement.
  • Knowledge of reset, power management, error handling, performance, and high-concurrency scenarios.
  • Familiarity with Python, C/C++, Tcl, CocoTB, or similar verification automation tools.
  • Eligibility to access U.S. export-controlled technology.

Responsibilities

  • Develop and own scalable verification environments for compute, DDR, and Fabric NoC subsystems.
  • Write and execute tests for compute operations, memory traffic, coherency, routing, ordering, QoS, power management, and error handling.
  • Analyze coverage gaps, debug failures, and drive root-cause analysis.
  • Drive verification planning, regression quality, coverage closure, and signoff.
  • Automate verification flows using scripting and reusable infrastructure.
  • Mentor engineers and improve verification methodology.
