Skills
Must have
- B.Tech/M.Tech with 12+ years of experience in digital pre-silicon verification, including leadership across IP, subsystem, or SoC-level DV.
- Strong understanding of SoC/Subsystem architectures with hands-on expertise in Verilog/SystemVerilog and UVM-based testbench development, debugging, and methodology implementation.
- Proven track record in verification closure using functional and code coverage metrics across block, subsystem, and SoC levels.
- Expertise in NoC, bus, and interconnect verification, along with coverage analysis and optimization.
- Experience in architecting scalable testbench environments and defining robust DV flows and methodologies.
- Strong background in power-aware verification (UPF), including power analysis and optimization.
- Hands-on experience with formal verification, including flow definition, connectivity, and functional property checking.
- Solid protocol knowledge and verification experience across high-speed and low-speed interfaces such as I2C, SPI, Ethernet, UART, AXI/AHB, DMA, and SVI3.
- Experience in security and safety verification, ensuring compliance with secure design and functional safety requirements.
- Familiarity with gate-level simulations with timing annotation (GLS).
- Strong expertise in test planning, constrained-random verification, assertions, and transaction-level modeling.
- Good understanding of processor-based systems (ARM, RISC-V, Tensilica), AI/ML accelerators, and proficiency in C/C++, SystemC, and scripting (Python/TCL/Shell).
- Exposure to mixed-signal/analog verification (ADC/DAC/PLL/PHY) is a plus.
- Excellent communication and leadership skills with the ability to collaborate across global teams and drive verification innovation.
- Strong problem-solving mindset with the ability to quickly learn and adopt new technologies
