Job Title: Lead Design Verification Engineer

Location: m Bangalore

Job Type: Full-time

Experience Level: 7+ years

Department: Hardware Engineering / VLSI Design

Job Summary:

We are seeking a highly experienced Lead Design Verification Engineer to lead verification efforts for complex digital designs. The ideal candidate will drive testbench architecture, verification planning, and execution for ASIC/SoC or FPGA-based designs, ensuring first-time-right silicon or system functionality. You will work closely with RTL design, DV, and system engineering teams to deliver high-quality products.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead and drive the verification strategy, planning, and execution for IP, subsystem, or full-chip level.
  • Define and implement constrained-random, directed, and coverage-driven verification methodologies (UVM/SystemVerilog preferred).
  • Develop and maintain scalable and reusable testbench components.
  • Mentor and guide junior verification engineers in testbench architecture, debugging, and coverage closure.
  • Collaborate with RTL designers, architects, and firmware/software teams to understand design intent and develop test plans.
  • Own and track functional coverage metrics and ensure 100% coverage goals are met.
  • Drive regular reviews of verification status, risks, and issues with stakeholders.
  • Support post-silicon validation teams with test vectors, debugging, and failure analysis.

Required Qualifications:

  • Bachelors or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.
  • 7+ years of industry experience in digital design verification.
  • Strong expertise in SystemVerilog, UVM, and advanced verification methodologies.
  • Experience in testbench architecture, test planning, and constrained-random stimulus generation.
  • Solid understanding of digital design concepts, SoC/ASIC design flows, and bus protocols (e.g., AXI, AHB, PCIe, etc.).
  • Hands-on experience with simulation tools (VCS, Questa, etc.) and coverage analysis tools.
  • Excellent debugging and problem-solving skills using waveform viewers and assertion-based techniques.
  • Familiarity with scripting languages such as Python, Perl, or TCL for automation.
  • Strong communication and leadership skills with experience leading small to mid-sized teams.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience in formal verification techniques.
  • Experience with emulation, FPGA prototyping, or post-silicon bring-up.
  • Exposure to power-aware or low-power verification (UPF/CPF).
  • Knowledge of hardware security, safety, or compliance standards (ISO 26262, DO-254, etc.) is a plus.
  • Familiarity with CI/CD flows and version control (Git, Jenkins, etc.).

Why Join Us:

  • Work on cutting-edge technologies and next-generation chip designs.
  • Opportunity to lead high-impact projects and influence verification strategy.
  • Collaborative and innovative work environment.
  • Competitive salary, benefits, and career growth opportunities.
