• Experienced in SystemVerilog, SV-UVM, Python, and testbench architecture design (CocoTB a plus).
• Skilled in creating and executing detailed verification plans across multiple methodologies.
• Familiar with AI-assisted coding and debug tools (Copilot, Cursor, Claude).
• Proactive engineer who can take ownership of complex verification areas in a multi-chip environment.
  

What We Need

• Develop simulation, emulation, and formal verification infrastructure and methodologies.
• Own and execute verification plans for SoC, chiplet, and package-level systems.
• Triage, analyze, and debug failures in collaboration with cross-functional design teams.
• Drive use of AI tools to enhance test generation, debug, and coverage closure.
  

What You Will Learn

• Hands-on experience with advanced multi-die and package-level verification flows.
• Exposure to Synopsys Distributed Simulation and hardware co-simulation techniques.
• Broaden expertise in emulation platforms and co-simulation with real workloads.
• Learn how AI-driven verification accelerates productivity in complex SoC development.
