About the Role
You will plan and execute system-level SoC verification, build simulation environments, and verify boot, security, clock, reset, low-power, IO, and memory behavior. You will run CDC and RDC analysis, assess performance, and support coverage closure and tape-out readiness.
Requirements
- Ten or more years in design verification with significant SoC-level experience
- Experience with multiple SoC verification projects through sign-off and tape-out
- Experience with SystemVerilog, UVM, C, C++, and coverage-driven verification
- Experience managing simulation flows on ARM or RISC-V SoCs
- Knowledge of PCIe and LPDDR5 or LPDDR6
- Experience verifying boot sequences, root of trust, clock and reset topology, and low-power behavior
- Experience with CDC, RDC, low-power verification tools, and UPF-based flows
Responsibilities
- Drive verification planning and execution for assigned SoC areas
- Build and maintain SoC-level simulation environments and flows
- Verify boot flows, root of trust, security transitions, and firmware handoff
- Verify clock and reset topology, power domains, and low-power behavior
- Verify IO and memory subsystem integration including PCIe and LPDDR
- Run CDC and RDC analysis and close findings
- Verify latency, bandwidth, and QoS under representative workloads
- Support sign-off criteria, coverage closure, and tape-out readiness
Benefits
- Equity compensation
- Medical coverage
- Dental coverage
- Vision coverage
- Paid time off
- Flexible work arrangements
