• Collaborate closely with RTL designers and architects to understand specifications and microarchitecture details.
• Develop new validation setups and work to improve existing environments, including stimulus generation, checking, and coverage infrastructure.
• Develop and complete verification plans and test plans.
• Implement verification strategies in partnership with other verification engineers.
• Drive functional and code coverage closure.
• Debug and resolve sophisticated design and verification issues.
• Contribute to continuous improvement of verification methodologies, infrastructure, and protocols.
• Provide technical mentorship and support to less experienced engineers.

Required Skills and Experience

• 5+ years of experience in IP, subsystem, or SoC verification.
• Strong proficiency in SystemVerilog and Verilog.
• Experience with UVM or other industry-standard verification methodologies.
• Experience developing constrained-random verification environments and reusable verification components.
• Experience developing verification strategies and test protocols.
• Understanding of SoC verification, including verification flows that incorporate software elements.
• Experience with scripting languages such as Python, Perl, or similar.
• Strong debugging, analytical, and problem-solving skills.
• Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively across geographically distributed teams.

Nice to Have Skills and Experience

• Experience with Arm-based designs and/or Arm system architectures.
• Experience with AMBA protocols such as CHI, AXI, AHB, and APB.
• Experience with JTAG, SWD, or TAP-based debug infrastructures.
• Experience with clock domain crossing (CDC), reset domain crossing (RDC), and power-aware verification.
• Exposure to low-power design techniques and UPF/CPF methodologies.
• Experience with DFT concepts, including scan and MBIST.
