ASIC Design Verification Engineer
Rochester, NY$144.8k - $217.2kFull-timePosted 2mo ago
About the role
Role focused on verification strategy and coverage for mixed-signal power management IP, driving system-level verification of the full SoC, block-level verification, and RTL design within AMD.
Responsibilities
- Own the overall verification strategy, test plan, and coverage closure for a mixed-signal power management IC
- Define functional and code coverage goals, track progress, and report verification status and readiness to the project team
- Own verification signoff criteria and drive the team to coverage closure ahead of tape-out
- Maintain and improve regression infrastructure, triage flow, and results reporting
- Develop and execute system-level verification of the full SOC, including boot and reset sequencing, power state transitions, fault and protection scenarios, and host interface traffic
- Verify firmware-driven behavior in co-simulation of embedded firmware with RTL
- Build and maintain SystemVerilog/UVM testbench components, sequences, checkers, and assertions at the system level
- Develop block-level test benches and coverage for digital blocks as project needs require
- Verify digital/analog interfaces using real-number models (RNM) of analog macros, including model bring-up, correlation to analog behavior, and debug in the digital simulation environment
- Partner with Analog Design and RTL Design to review model fidelity and ensure the verified behavior matches silicon intent
- Partner with RTL designers on design reviews, verification planning, and debug of failures to root cause
- Contribute to SystemVerilog RTL design work across the team as needed
- Support post-silicon bring-up, including correlation of silicon behavior back to pre-silicon test cases
- Work across Analog, Firmware, Systems Engineering, and Architecture teams; mentor junior engineers on verification methodology
Qualifications
- Bachelors or master's in electrical/computer engineering
- System-level or SOC-level verification ownership on a mixed-signal device
- Real-number modeling (RNM) of analog blocks in SystemVerilog (wreal / nettype real), or Verilog-AMS experience
- SystemVerilog RTL design experience in an ASIC environment
- Firmware/RTL co-simulation or hardware/software co-verification experience
- Formal verification, assertion-based verification (SVA), or emulation/FPGA prototyping experience
- Post-silicon bring-up and debug experience
- Experience mentoring engineers and leading verification reviews
- Strong SystemVerilog and UVM testbench development skills, ownership of verification for a block or subsystem through tape-out
- Demonstrated experience defining verification plans and driving functional and code coverage to closure
- Proficiency with simulation, coverage, and debug tools, and regression automation
- Ability to read and understand RTL and design specifications to independently derive test intent
