proteanTecs is looking for a Senior VLSI Verification Engineer to join the ride as we spearhead the next revolution in electronics!
Develop and maintain advanced verification environments using SystemVerilog and UVM, ensuring scalability, configurability, and reusability across multiple IPs.
Design, implement, and execute comprehensive testbenches and random test suites to validate functional correctness, robustness, and corner-case behavior of complex IP within various SoC integration environments.
Drive coverage closure by defining, collecting, and analyzing code and functional coverage metrics; identify verification gaps and ensure complete validation of feature sets prior to sign-off.
Lead debug and root-cause analysis efforts in collaboration with senior verification and design engineers, leveraging carefully crafted logs, waveform analysis and assertions to isolate and resolve design or environment issues.
Collaborate closely with architecture, design, and firmware teams to ensure verification completeness, alignment with design intent, and seamless integration at the system level.
Contribute to methodology and infrastructure improvements, including reusable UVM components, automation scripts, and best practices that enhance team efficiency and verification quality.
Requirements:
B.Sc. in Electrical/Computer Engineering or equivalent.
5+ years of experience as a VLSI Verification Engineer. Expertise in System-Verilog and UVM.
Strong software development skills and the ability to develop reusable verification components and utilities.
Strong organizational and planning skills, with the ability to prioritize and drive verification projects to completion.
Effective communicator with a structured, detail-oriented approach to problem-solving and collaboration.
Advantages:
Experience with Git, Python, code templating methods, and open-source verification workflows.
Familiarity with full-chip level aspects of VLSI verification (reset architecture and sequences, power domains and modes, etc.).
Experience in firmware verification, including emulation-based verification on FPGA.
Experience with formal verification or mixed-signal simulation.
