Principal Engineer, Digital Verification Engineering

Responsibilities

• Drive adoption of AI/ML methodologies for failure clustering, regression triage, anomaly detection, and intelligent coverage optimization
• Define and own verification strategy, plans, and success metrics across block, top-level, and system contexts for mixed-signal ICs
• Build and scale mixed-signal verification infrastructure including reusable SystemVerilog/UVM testbenches, monitors, scoreboards, and automated checkers
• Lead functional coverage planning, closure analysis, and sign-off for tape-out readiness
• Drive silicon correlation by comparing simulation expectations against lab measurements, refining models and tests based on measured behavior
• Lead verification architecture and methodology reviews, influencing best practices across projects
• Collaborate with design, applications, and test teams to ensure verification reflects real use-cases, operating modes, and corner scenarios
• Required Skills and Experience
• MSEE or MSCE with 10+ years of IC verification experience, or PhD with 8+ years (BSEE/BSCE with equivalent depth considered)
• Expert-level proficiency in SystemVerilog and UVM with a track record of building coverage-driven verification environments for mixed-signal products
• Track record of owning end-to-end verification readiness from planning through tape-out sign-off and production release
• Strong Python scripting skills with experience applying AI/ML techniques to enhance verification productivity
• Deep knowledge of formal verification, assertion-based methodology, and clock domain crossing analysis
• Proficiency with Cadence verification tools: Xcelium (simulation), JasperGold (formal verification)
• Excellent presentation, technical writing, and communication skills

Requirements

• Experience with mixed-signal and AMS verification techniques including Verilog-AMS, real-number modeling, and behavioral abstraction
• Experience with gate-level simulation, SDF back-annotation, and post-layout verification
• Background verifying power management and interface-rich mixed-signal devices across multiple power domains
• Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities
• Ability to work effectively in a collaborative team environment
• Technical Scope
• Development and deployment of AI/ML-driven workflows for regression analytics, failure classification, and debug acceleration
• Full verification ownership from specification analysis through coverage closure and tape-out sign-off
• Mixed-signal verification environment architecture including analog behavioral modeling and digital-analog interface checking
• Verification methodology definition including test plan authoring, coverage model design, and regression management
• Collaboration and Impact
• Champion AI/ML-driven improvements to verification workflows, sharing results and best practices across teams
• Partner with design, applications, and test teams to translate product requirements into verification coverage that reflects real operating conditions
• Contribute to organizational knowledge through verification reviews, methodology forums, and cross-team technical exchanges
