Principal ASIC Verification Engineer

Responsibilities

We are seeking a Principal ASIC Design Verification Engineer to provide technical leadership and strategic direction across IP, Subsystem, and SoC verification. This role is ideal for a verification architect and technical authority who drives methodology innovation, mentors teams, and champions AI-assisted verification to scale quality and productivity across complex ASIC platforms. You will focus on the following:

• Act as a verification technical leader and architect across IP, Subsystem, and SoC programs
• Define and own end-to-end verification strategies, methodologies, and best practices across teams
• Architect highly reusable, scalable, and modular UVM-based verification environments
• Drive cross-project alignment on verification flows, coverage strategies, and sign-off criteria
• Lead complex debug efforts, root-cause analysis, and final functional sign-off for critical programs
• Champion AI-driven, data-driven, and automation-enabled verification solutions to eliminate bottlenecks
• Establish advanced regression, coverage analytics, and intelligent failure triage workflows
• Mentor senior and junior verification engineers; raise the overall technical bar of the organization
• Partner closely with architecture, design, validation, and product teams to influence design-for-verification decisions
• Act as a key technical interface with internal leadership and external stakeholders

Qualifications

• Bachelors or Masters degree in Electronic Engineering or a related field
• 1216 years of deep, hands-on ASIC Design Verification experience
• Demonstrated leadership in IP, Subsystem, and SoC-level verification, preferably in networking or packet-processing domains
• Proven experience architecting complex verification environments used across multiple programs
• Expert-level skills in:
• SystemVerilog, UVM, Verilog
• C/C++
• Strong mastery of verification methodologies, including constrained-random, coverage-driven verification, and gate-level simulations
• Extensive experience in Linux/Unix environments; strong scripting skills (Python preferred)
• Hands-on expertise with high-speed protocols such as Ethernet, PCIe, USB 3.0, and SERDES
• Experience with SystemC and DSP concepts is highly desirable
• Proven success applying AI-assisted verification techniques for debug acceleration, coverage optimization, and productivity gains
• Strong technical influence, communication, and mentorship skills with a strategic mindset
