Senior ASIC Verification Engineer – SystemVerilog / UVM / High-Speed I/O / SoC / Chipsets
We are currently partnered with a semiconductor technology organisation developing advanced I/O and chipset solutions that connect die-to-die interfaces with high-speed, multi-protocol I/O. The technology combines advanced interconnect standards, high-speed networking, switching, and embedded management capabilities.
As part of their continued development of complex silicon solutions, they are looking to hire a Senior ASIC Verification Engineer to establish and execute verification strategies across blocks, subsystems, and chip-level functions. The role involves close collaboration with architecture, RTL, verification, firmware, physical design, and IP teams, with ownership extending through verification closure and tape-out.
Key responsibilities
- Develop verification plans that map requirements to test scenarios, verification platforms, coverage goals, and sign-off criteria
- Translate architectural and design requirements into measurable verification objectives
- Design and maintain reusable SystemVerilog/UVM verification environments, including sequences, agents, scoreboards, reference models, and assertions
- Integrate third-party verification IP (VIP) and models
- Verify configured IP and end-to-end connectivity across protocol and PHY interfaces
- Verify static switching configurations, protocol modes, data integrity, latency, throughput, reset behaviour, and recovery mechanisms
Key requirements
- 10+ years of hands-on ASIC design verification experience
- Proven ownership of verification activities through tape-out and formal sign-off
- Expert-level SystemVerilog and UVM experience
- Strong understanding of constrained-random verification and reusable testbench architecture
- Proven experience developing verification plans, defining coverage objectives, debugging complex failures, and driving verification closure
- Experience verifying high-speed interfaces, complex SoCs, networking ASICs, or die-to-die interconnect technologies
- Hands-on experience integrating verification IP and developing reference models and scoreboards
