We are like a start-up in a big company. Year after year, our group builds the most powerful and highest density networking chips. As part of our fast-paced silicon group, you will become an expert in building high-speed ASICs, from specifications to final netlist. We give you opportunities to work on complex modules and subsystems where you can challenge yourself and grow. Open communications, empowerment, innovation, teamwork, and customer success are the foundations of team culture. Thus, you set your own limits for learning, achievements, and rewards. Position Summary We are seeking a highly motivated ASIC Verification Engineer to join our networking silicon development team.

Requirements

• 7+ years of experience in ASIC/SoC verification with a proven track record of owning verification from test plan to coverage closure.
• Strong expertise in SystemVerilog and UVM methodology, including developing environments from scratch.
• Deep understanding of randomization, constraints, functional coverage, and assertions (SVA).
• Hands-on experience in test planning, coverage analysis, and debugging of complex SoC designs.
• Proficiency with industry-standard simulation tools (e.g., Cadence Xcelium, Synopsys VCS, Mentor Questa) and waveform debugging.

Nice To Haves

• Experience verifying networking ASICs or router datapath/control blocks, such as packet processing, forwarding engines, or fabric interfaces.
• Familiarity with high-speed interconnects, buffers, or scheduling pipelines in large networking SoCs.
• Exposure to emulation environments, hardware acceleration, or traffic-model integration.
• Knowledge of coverage analytics, regression dashboards, and continuous-integration flows (e.g., Jenkins).
• Understanding of low-power (UPF) or formal verification methodologies.
• Familiarity with emulation environments and debug flows is desirable.

Responsibilities

• Own and drive block-level or subsystem verification efforts, from creating test plans to achieving comprehensive coverage closure.
• Develop, enhance, and maintain advanced UVM verification environments, including agents, sequences, scoreboards, virtual sequences, and register models.
• Perform constraint-driven random testing, debug complex SoC designs, and ensure functional coverage and assertion goals are met.
• Analyze simulation results using industry-leading simulation tools (e.g., Cadence Xcelium, Synopsys VCS, Mentor Questa) and debug waveforms to validate design functionality.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to identify and resolve issues, ensuring high-quality ASIC/SoC deliverables.
• Own and drive block-level/subsystem/FullChip verification efforts, from creating test plans to achieving comprehensive coverage closure
• Experience with post-silicon bring-up and debug is a plus.

Benefits

• Health & Wellbeing We strive to provide our team members and their loved ones with a comprehensive suite of benefits that supports their physical, financial and emotional wellbeing.
• Personal & Professional Development We also invest in your career because the better you are, the better we all are.
