Verification Lead

Job Overview: We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Design Verification Lead to join our advanced VLSI design team. The ideal candidate will have strong expertise in SystemVerilog, UVM (Universal Verification Methodology), and verification of industry-standard protocols (e.g., PCIe, USB, Ethernet, DDR, etc.). As the Design Verification Lead, you will lead the verification of complex SoC and IP designs, mentor verification engineers, and collaborate closely with design, architecture, and validation teams to deliver high-quality, robust products. Key Responsibilities: Lead the design verification efforts for complex SoC/IP projects following best practices. Develop and maintain verification environments using SystemVerilog and UVM. Plan verification strategy, including defining test plans, coverage goals, and methodology. Perform functional verification, assertion-based verification, and coverage analysis. Verify standard industry protocols such as PCIe, USB, Ethernet, DDR, I²C, SPI, etc. Define and track verification milestones, ensuring timely delivery of verification goals. Debug complex functional and protocol-level issues using simulators and analysis tools. Collaborate with RTL designers, architects, and software teams to ensure seamless integration. Mentor and guide junior verification engineers on SystemVerilog, UVM, and protocol specifics. Implement and improve automation in the verification environment using scripting languages (e.g., Python, Perl, TCL). Drive continuous improvement of the verification flow, tools, and methodologies. Required Skills and Qualifications: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field. 8+ years of experience in design verification of SoC/IP. Strong hands-on experience in SystemVerilog and UVM methodology. In-depth knowledge of industry-standard protocols: PCIe, USB, Ethernet, DDR, I²C, SPI, etc. Experience in simulation tools such as Cadence Incisive/Xcelium, Synopsys VCS, Mentor Questa, etc. Proficient in debugging complex RTL and verification issues. Strong scripting skills in Python, Perl, TCL, or Shell Scripting. Solid understanding of assertion-based verification (SVA). Experience in code and functional coverage analysis and achieving coverage closure. Excellent problem-solving, communication, and leadership skills. Proven ability to lead and mentor a team of engineers. Preferred Qualifications: Experience with formal verification tools. Knowledge of UVM factory patterns and sequence customization. Hands-on experience with Continuous Integration (CI) for verification flows. Exposure to emulation platforms and FPGA-based prototyping. What We Offer: Exciting projects in cutting-edge semiconductor design. Collaborative and innovative work environment. Opportunities for career growth and skill development. Competitive salary and benefits.
