JOB DESCRIPTION: PCIe VERIFICATION ENGINEER

Position Summary

We are seeking a highly experienced and technically sound PCIe Verification Engineer to join our core silicon engineering team. In this role, you will lead and execute the pre-silicon verification of next-generation, high-performance ASICs utilizing PCIe Gen6 and Gen7 protocols. You will be responsible for defining verification strategies, building robust UVM environments, and ensuring first-pass silicon success for cutting-edge networking and computing hardware.

Key Responsibilities

- Architect, develop, and maintain advanced constrained-random verification environments from scratch using SystemVerilog and UVM methodologies.
- Author comprehensive verification plans, test scenarios, and functional coverage models based on PCIe Gen6/Gen7 architectural specifications.
- Execute block-level, sub-system, and full-chip SoC verification to ensure complete protocol compliance and functionality.
- Debug complex hardware designs, testbench components, and protocol violations alongside RTL designers and architects.
- Integrate and verify third-party PCIe VIPs (Verification IP), ensuring proper hook-up and configuration for high-speed link training,



physical layer behaviors, and data routing.
- Drive closure of functional and code coverage metrics, achieving 100% targeted milestones.
- Mentor junior engineers and collaborate effectively across global design and verification teams to accelerate time-to-market.

Required Technical Skills & Qualifications

- Education: B.E./B.Tech/M.E./M.Tech in Electronics, Electrical, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
- Experience: Minimum 7 to 8 years of dedicated hands-on experience in ASIC/SoC Pre-Silicon Verification.
- Protocol Expertise: Deep architectural and protocol-level understanding of PCIe Gen6 and/or Gen7 (including flit-based architectures, PAM4 signaling considerations at the protocol level, RAS features, virtualization, and low-power states).
- Methodologies: Strong mastery of SystemVerilog and UVM (Universal Verification Methodology).
- Verification Infrastructure: Proven track record of building UVM testbenches, writing assertions (SVA), implementing functional coverage, and test case development.
- Tools: Proficiency with industry-standard EDA tools from Synopsys (VCS), Cadence (Xcelium), or Siemens/Mentor Graphics (Questa).
- Scripting: Positive command over scripting languages like Python, Perl, or Shell to automate verification flows.
