What You Bring To The Table:

• Educational Foundation : Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related technical discipline.
• Proven Experience : 7-10+ years of hands-on verification experience spanning test plan development, simulation environment creation, test implementation, and complex debugging across diverse IP blocks, SoCs, and system-level designs.
• Specialized Expertise : Demonstrated proficiency in fabric-level and chip-level verification methodologies and best practices.
• Technical Mastery : Advanced skills in SystemVerilog/Verilog, UVM methodology, and C/C++ programming, including embedded code development and validation for RISC-based processors.
• Verification Leadership : Established track record in creating scalable verification flows, implementing coverage-driven verification strategies, and developing assertion-based verification frameworks.
• Demonstrated fluency with modern AI tools and workflows (e.g., leveraging AI assistants for research, analysis, or productivity).

Benefits

• Competitive salary and benefits package
• Flexible PTO
• 401k
