SoC Verification

Job Summary

The Verification role will involve many aspects of functional verification using most effective methodologies in context of Subsystem/SoC/System Level. A strong ability to map requirements into a traceable verification plan is important. Responsibilities encompass the development of verification test bench, development of verification components, test case development for simulation , debugging failures and creating simulation cases for various scenarios

Expectations include:

• Verification planning;
• Development of verification test bench components such as drivers, monitors, response checkers as well as use most advanced UVM VIPs
• Development of direct and constrained-random stimulus
• Understands and analyzes RTL code, functional, assertion coverage results
• Understands and develops system Verilog assertions
• Strong skills in debug, failure re-creation and root cause analysis
• Applicant should have efficient debugging and logic skills
