About The Position

This role is for an ASIC Design Verification Engineer at Ericsson, focusing on building the backbone of next-generation 5G networks. The engineer will be responsible for proving the functionality of ASICs before they are deployed in live 5G infrastructure. The position involves hunting down bugs, building verification environments from scratch, and ensuring silicon quality. The role is part of Ericsson's growing ASIC IP organization, offering ownership across the full verification stack, including TLM modeling, block- and top-level ASIC/IP verification, testbench architecture, and SW-driven verification. This is a hands-on role where contributions are visible and growth is prioritized.
