Job Description

The verification team at Xilinx is looking for a Senior Staff Design Verification Engineer to lead and contribute on the verification of Network on Chip IPs and Subsystems. The individual will help architect, develop and use simulation and/or formal based verification environments, at block and subystem level, to prove the functional correctness of Network-On-Chip (NOC) IPs, subsystem and SOC designs.

Responsibilities

• Lead and Plan verification of complex digital design blocks by fully understanding the architecture and design specifications
• Interact with architects and design engineers to create a comprehensive verification testplan
• Design and architect testbenches in System Verilog and UVM to complete verification of the design in an efficient manner
• Create and enhance constrained-random and/or directed verification environments, and formally verify designs with System Verilog Assertions (SVA) and industry leading formal tools
• Debug tests with design engineers to deliver functionally correct design blocks
• Identify and write coverage measures for stimulus quality improvements
• Perform coverage analysis to identify verification holes and achieve closure on coverage metrics
  Job Qualifications
  
  • Requires BS w/ 12+ yrs or MS w/ 8+ yrs or PhD w/ 5+ yrs in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or related equivalent.
  • Experienced with development of UVM, OVM, VMM and/or System Verilog, Verilog test benches and usage of simulation tools/debug environments like Synopsys VCS, Cadence IES to test block level/full chip SOCs and FPGAs.
  • Strong understanding of state of the art of verification techniques, including assertion and coverage-driven verification.
  • Strong understanding of different phases of ASIC and/or full custom chip development is required.
  • Experience in block level NOC (Net work on Chip) verification is a plus.
  • Verification Experience in protocols like AXI3/4, DDR4/5, HBM, PCIe, Processors, Graphics is a plus.
  • Experience as a verification architect, establishing the verification methodology, tools and infrastructure for high performance SOCs, VLSI designs and/or FPGAs is a plus.
  • Experience with gate level simulation, power verification, reset verification, contention checking, abstraction techniques is a plus.
  • Familiarity with verification management tools as well as understanding of database management particularly as it pertains to regression management is a plus.
  • Experience with formal property checking tools such as Cadence (IEV), Jasper and Synopsys (VC-Formal, Magellan) is a plus.
    Special Qualifications: Must have at least 1 year of prior work experience in each of the following:
    
    • Architect and implement verification environment using advanced verification methodology such as UVM or SystemVerilog;
    • Test plan development and test writing;
    • Analyzing and debugging failures using simulation tools such as Synopsys VCS or DVE to verify hard IPs, FPGA fabric or System-on-Chip;
    • Functional coverage writing, coverage collection and analysis, coverage closure;
    • Writing System Verilog assertions and assertion based verification; and,
    • Running regressions, automation using scripting languages such as PERL and verification closure.
