About the job

Verifies custom silicon for AR/VR and AI devices by developing and executing simulation-based and formal verification strategies from design specification through tape-out.

What you'll do

  • Develop verification plans, UVM testbenches, and coverage models for RTL blocks, subsystems, and SoCs.
  • Maintain simulation, regression, and automated test infrastructure; debug failures and perform formal verification.
  • Coordinate verification and pre-silicon test content with design, architecture, software, firmware, and post-silicon teams.

What they ask for

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, a relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 6+ years of digital design verification experience, including UVM-based constrained-random testbenches.
  • 6+ years of experience with hardware description and verification languages, including SystemVerilog and/or VHDL.
  • Experience with functional and code coverage, RTL simulation debugging, scripting for test automation, HW/SW interoperability verification, and firmware validation.

Nice to have

  • Experience with post-silicon validation, hardware bring-up, or consumer/mobile/wearable SoC verification, including low-power techniques.
  • Familiarity with formal verification and agentic AI flows; experience with CPUs, AI accelerators, security, interconnects, memory controllers, or full-SoC verification.
