At least 5 years of verification experience.
Exposure to computer architecture, ASIC design, and verification methodology.
Strong ability with SystemVerilog, test planning, coverage closure, and testbench design.
Understanding of object-oriented programming concepts.
Strong communication skills and the ability and desire to work as a teammate.
Good debugging and problem-solving skills.

Nice To Haves

Experience with assertion-based verification, Semiformal Verification (SFV), Unified Verification Methodology (UVM), SystemVerilog checkers, and scoreboards.
Perl or Python knowledge.
Experience with multiple verification methodologies.
Leadership experience.

Responsibilities

Develop and work on a unit-level testbench, including directed and random tests and test infrastructure.
Contribute to the future direction of the testbench methodology.
Partner with RTL and architecture teams to refine microarchitecture plans and ensure design changes are verifiable.
Architect and plan verification strategy and execution for subsystem features that impact the unit.
Support post-silicon validation activities.
Use AI to accelerate testbench development, task automation, debugging, and problem-solving.
