SoC Design Verification Lead

What you'll do

• Own the SoC verification strategy, architecture, environment, coverage goals, and sign-off execution.
• Build and lead a verification team, providing technical direction while remaining hands-on.
• Coordinate verification across boot and security, clock and reset, low power, IO and memory subsystems, and system software.

What they ask for

• 12 or more years in design verification, including significant SoC-level experience.
• Led SoC verification across multiple projects through sign-off and tape out, and built and led verification engineers.
• Experience with SystemVerilog, UVM, C, C++, and coverage-driven system-level verification; CPU-based SoC simulation flows such as ARM or RISC-V.
• Knowledge of IO and memory IP such as PCIe and LPDDR5 or LPDDR6; system-level verification of boot and root of trust, clock and reset, and low power, including CDC, RDC, and UPF flows.

Nice to have

• HW/SW co-verification, pre-silicon software bring-up, emulation, or FPGA prototyping.
• Experience with safety standards, QoS or real-time systems, post-silicon bring-up, early-stage team building, Physical AI domains, or AI-assisted verification.
