Job Description
Senior/Principal ASIC Design Verification Engineer (SoC/Subsystem)
Role summary
Own end-to-end verification of complex SoCs or large subsystems. This is a hands-on role from testbench architecture to coverage closure, through tapeout and into silicon correlation.
What youll do
- Architect and build scalable UVM testbenches from scratch at subsystem or SoC level
- Strong hands-on experience in testbench development
- Define verification strategy and author test plans from specs and micro-architecture
- Develop constrained-random and directed tests, scoreboards, checkers, assertions (SVA), and coverage models
- Drive functional, code, and assertion coverage closure with discipline
- Debug complex issues using waveforms, logs, and root-cause analysis
- Lead SoC-level verification: IP integration, coherency, low-power modes, resets/boot, and performance validation
- Work closely with RTL, architecture, DFT, and firmware teams
- Support silicon bring-up and pre-/post-silicon correlation
Must-have skills
- 8+ years of hands-on ASIC verification (FPGA/emulation-only experience does not count)
- Strong TB Architecture ownership design, reuse strategy, scalability, and maintainability
- Multiple production ASIC tapeouts with SoC or large subsystem ownership
- Expert in SystemVerilog, UVM, SVA, and constrained-random methodologies
- Deep experience with AXI/ACE, DDR, PCIe, coherency, memory and interrupt fabrics
- Proven strength in test planning, stimulus strategy, checkers/scoreboards, and closure execution
- Excellent debug skills across simulation and silicon correlation
