- B.Tech/M.Tech with 8+ years of industry experience in analog/mixed signal behavioral modeling at various levels of abstraction and full chip verification (AMS and DMS DV)
- Good understanding of analog design concepts and mixed signal design architectures. Exposure to products that integrate a wide variety of analog/mixed-signal building blocks such as power management, ADCs, DACs, PLL, bandgap references, oscillators etc. and related digital control and signal processing
- Demonstrated experience of verification plan, verification environment development and verification/debug of complex mixed signal products at chip-top level
- Experience of co-simulations with analog model/transistor level and digital RTL/Gate+SDFs, experience of circuit simulations with Spice/Fast Spice simulators
- Exceptional interpersonal and communication skills, collaborate and influence innovative design development/verification methodologies to wider team spread across the globe

- Come up with verification strategy for a product after going through product requirements and design specifications
- Interact with digital/analog leads to get agreement on verification strategy
- Create models for analog/mixed-signal blocks for chip-top verification, tradeoff accuracy Vs speed. Validate models against actual design (self-checking tests)
- Create verification plans, build verification environment, develop self-checking testcases. Bring up chip top mixed-signal verification environments (AMS and DMS DV environments)
- Deploy industry standard SV/UVM based metric driven verification approach
- Collaborate and work closely with team members from various disciplines (system architects, digital design, analog design, digital DV etc.) for first pass silicon
- Support test and characterization teams in post-silicon validation
- Collaborate with CAD team to deploy next generation innovative design verification methodologies to reduce overall TTM, mentor junior DV engineers in the team

- Modelling of analog blocks

- SV-RNM

- Verilog-AMS

- Schematic based structural models (macro models)

- System C

- Familiarity with analog/mixed-signal design architectures and debug experience with schematic capture tools such as Cadence Virtuoso and waveform viewers such as Cadence Simvision
- Chip-top co-simulation with tools such as Cadence ADE/Cadence AMSD with Spectre as the analog solver and Xcelium as the digital solver
- Experience and debug with digital simulators such as Cadence Xcelium/Synopsys VCS
- Experience with Spice/Fast Spice simulators such as Spectre Ultrasim/APS/XPS
- Experience with SV/UVM (agent creation, env building, score-boarding, RAL etc.)
- Experience with third-party IP integration
- Tracking of verification metrics and regression management, Metric Driven Verification (MDV) framework using tools such as Cadence vManager
- Experience with languages/tools/software relating to product development is an added advantage

- C, C++, System C, AMS

- Automation with scripting languages: Python/Perl/Shell etc.

- Embedded programming for on-chip micros or separate MCUs

- Matlab/Simulink for system level simulations and modeling
