This is a unique opportunity to help shape a company at an early stage and grow into a future leader in an industry poised for global impact.
What You Will Do
Develop and execute verification plans across the SoC/IP verification cycle, from architecture definition through tape-out and silicon bring-up
Build and maintain UVM/OVM-based verification environments for complex ASIC/SoC designs
Write and debug SystemVerilog testbenches, leveraging randomization, functional coverage, and assertion-based methodologies
Drive root-cause analysis and debug of verification failures in close collaboration with design and architecture teams
Define and track coverage closure goals to ensure comprehensive verification sign-off
Partner cross-functionally with design, architecture, and physical design teams to align verification strategy with tape-out schedules
Contribute to the evolution of verification methodology and infrastructure to support next-generation in-memory computing architectures
What You Will Bring
BS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field with 12+ years of industry experience (MS preferred with 7+ years)
Experience across the full SoC/IP verification cycle — from architecture through tape-out and bring-up
Hands-on ASIC/SoC design verification test development and debug experience
Fluency with SystemVerilog (randomization, constraints, coverage, assertions) and verification methodologies such as UVM/OVM/VMM
Strong problem-solving skills and a passion for tackling complex technical challenges, particularly in the AI domain
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with C/C++ and SystemC
Track record leading the creation and implementation of multiple SoC verification environments and driving tape-out efforts
