Verification Engineer

Job Description: Principal Verification Engineer

Location: San Francisco, CA

Duration: 6 months

Responsibilities:

Architect and Create verification environments using System-Verilog and Universal verification methodology-UVM IPs and SoCs with embedded CPUs and analog mixed-signal interfaces.

• Develop test plans and coverage metrics from specifications and writing block and chip-level tests.

• Create PERL/Python scripts to automate creating verification environments, tests generation and debugging.

• Failure analysis of Register Transfer Level and Gate simulations and resolve them by working with design engineers.

• Create low power testcases using UPF or CPF to verify the desired power intent of the SoC.

• Work with architects to determine the use-case scenarios to simulate

Preferred Qualifications:

7+ years of experience in pre-silicon design verification

• Proficiency in C-shell scripting, Verilog-HDL & System Verilog.

• Strong knowledge in SV Assertions, UVM/OVM and functional code coverage.
