Senior Silicon Design Verification Engineer, Mixed Signal
Summary
Senior engineer verifying digital and mixed-signal design blocks for Google's custom silicon in consumer hardware products — planning verification strategies, building UVM/SystemVerilog testbenches and coverage, and driving verification through tape-out from offices in New Taipei City or Zhubei, Taiwan.
- Plan and execute on the verification of digital and mixed signal design blocks by fully understanding the design specification and interacting with architecture and design engineers to identify important verification scenarios.
- Identify and implement key coverage metrics for stimulus and corner-cases to identify verification holes and to show progress towards tape-out.
- Work with design verification and other stakeholders to come up with detailed execution plans, schedule, dependencies and deliverables.
- Work closely with system, software, design, DFT and physical implementation stakeholders to make technical decisions.
- Be the primary point of contact for functional verification for cross-functional teams and lead/drive the building of reusable Design Verification (DV) infrastructure components.
Minimum qualifications:
- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
- 8 years of experience leading digital verification using SystemVerilog for ASIC designs.
- Experience developing and maintaining design verification (DV) testbenches, test cases, and test environments.
Preferred qualifications:
- Master's degree or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Physics, or a related field.
- Experience with RTL, low power (UPF/CPF), gate level (GLS) and formal verification techniques.
- Experience with mixed signal (AMS/DMS) designs, mixed mode verification, and writing SystemVerilog models of analog blocks (RNM, Verilog-AMS).
- Experience in creating detailed block-level design verification strategies and plans.
- Experience creating verification components and environments using UVM and SystemVerilog Assertions (SVA).
- Proficiency in scripting languages such as Python.
