AI Driven Verification CAD Engineer

Benefits

Additional Information

As AI-assisted development matures, the bottleneck in ASIC verification is shifting from manual coding to architectural strategy. We are looking for an experienced engineer who prioritizes systemic ideas over routine implementation. This role is built for a self-directed engineer who can envision and build the infrastructure that allows a global team to move with at a higher velocity. Role Overview You will contribute to Sandisk verification architecture and the verification productivity suite by scaling AI into the global team using agents, skills and other advanced techniques. You will be responsible for the creative engineering required to make the global team more productive. Rather than executing a predefined script, you will identify inefficiencies then architect a framework to support AI-driven solutions. Your goal is to build a portable, scalable environment where AI tools and infrastructure handle the complexity. Essential Duties & Responsibilities AI Integration: Actively integrate AI code-development tools (LLMs, Copilots) into the ASIC workflow to accelerate design, verification and automated bug localization. Methodology Innovation: Deploy scalable & portable methodologies that function across different environments scaling from IP to SOC to enable "write once, run anywhere" capability. Cross-Functional Support: Provide expert-level support for ASIC Design and Verification teams. Provide the automation and workflows necessary for high-speed debug and data analysis. Automation & Tooling: Build robust Python-based frameworks for automated testbench generation, regression management, and intelligent failure triage. Infrastructure Architecting: Design, develop, and maintain AI forward CAD infrastructure for verification. Enable seamless handoffs between IP & SOC verification teams. Use advanced techniques like formal verification paired with AI to shift left verification development. Required: Education: B.S./M.S. in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or Computer Science. ASIC DNA: 7+ years of Design Verification experience with a deep understanding of chip-level functional model building. HVL Mastery: Expert-level knowledge of SystemVerilog and UVM, including assertion-based (SVA) and coverage-driven (CDV) methodologies. Automation Powerhouse: Advanced proficiency in Python and Shell scripting. Experience with Perl is a plus. Modern Dev Stack: Comfortable using AI-assisted development tools to increase personal and team velocity. Engine Versatility: Strong understanding of the differences between Behavioral and Structural models, with experience porting environments across simulation and emulation platforms. Tools & Debug: Familiarity with Cadence ASIC verification tools (Xcelium, SimVision, vManager and Verissium) Systems Thinking: Strong understanding of OOP concepts and how they apply to building scalable, maintainable verification libraries. OS Proficiency: Expert-level Linux OS skills and experience managing large-scale regression farms (LSF, NC, Slurm). Communication: Document complex CAD flows for a global audience. Train and help others understand and debug their usage of these workflows. Logistics Presence: Must be on-site 3 days per week.
