Staff Engineer - Verification

• Candidate should have working experience with AMS Verification on multiple SOCor sub-systems
• One should have proficiency in AMS simulation environment using Cadence\/Synopsys\/Mentor tools
• Knowledge of digital design techniques, Verilog HDL, and standard RTL coding styles, as we'll as analog circuit basics, with previous analog design experience a plus
• Candidate should be familiar with the concepts of behavioral modeling - both digital (Verilog-D) and analog (Verilog-A or Verilog-AMS)
• Experience in SV and UVM testbench development\/modifications from mixed signal perspective is a plus
• Functional knowledge of analog and mixed signal building blocks, such as comparators, op-amps, switched cap circuits, various types of ADCs and DACs, current mirrors, charge pumps, and regulators is expected
• Working knowledge of Perl \/ Skill\/ Python\/Tcl or other scripting relevant language is a plus
• Candidate should have ability to lead a project team, and work collaboratively in a multi-site development environment

• Behavioral modeling: Verilog, Wreal or SV-RNM -Full
• AMS Verification for SoC or IPs -Full
• Test plan preparation as per the dynamics of product specifications - Full
• Dealing challenges with AMS methodologies of Cadence: irun\/xrun or Synopsys: XA-VCS or Mentor Eldo ADMS -partial
• Testcase Debug & proposing new scenarios - Partial
• Handling project dynamics on scope, schedule and effort coming up with alternative verification plans, Mentoring Junior engineer Partial
• Ability to drive MSV project independently
• Drive enhancements in known methodologies

You are best equipped for this task if you have:

• Bachelors with 5+ years or Masters with 4+ years of experience
• Analog: functional spec understanding of standard power management blocks, clock circuits and data converters. Loop analysis is an added advantage
• HDL\/HVL: Verilog\/Verilog-ams, SV\/UVM added advantage
• Tools: Cadence Xcelium + spectre\/ Synopsys XA-VCS\/ Mentor Eldo ADMS
• Automation: Perl\/python\/shell
• Schedule and result oriented execution mindset, flexible in working as per the project scope needs, Exploring and experimentation for continuous methodology improvements
• Ability to drive projects and debug independently
