THE ROLE:

The focus of this role is to plan, build, and execute the verification of new and existing features for AMDs Soft IP cores, ensuring high-quality, silicon-proven IP delivered across supported platforms with zero escapes to production.

THE PERSON:

You have a passion for modern, complex processor architecture, digital design, and verification in general. You are a team player who has excellent communication skills and experience collaborating with other engineers located in different sites/timezones. You have strong analytical and problem-solving skills and are willing to learn and ready to take on problems.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

- Collaborate with IP designers, architects, and application engineers to understand new features and parameterization requirements to be verified
- Develop comprehensive verification strategies including:
- Test plans and functional coverage models
- Assertion-based verification (ABV)
- Constrained-random verification
- Formal verification where applicable

- Build comprehensive test plan documentation covering functional coverage, parameter space, platform interactions, and end-user use cases
- Estimate effort required to develop new feature tests and any updates needed to the verification environment
- Develop directed and constrained-random verification tests, including parameter configuration and coverage closure strategies
- Drive verification closure using coverage metrics, bug convergence, and quality sign-off criteria
- Debug complex design and verification issues spanning digital and firmware interfaces
- Review verification architecture, testbench design, and coding standards across the team
- Promote IP reuse and standardized verification environments across projects
- Maintain and improve nightly regression infrastructure across all supported platforms and configurations
- Contribute to IP quality sign-off reviews and pre-release validation




- Drive adoption and continuous improvement of:

- UVM methodology and System Verilog best practices
- Assertion-based verification flows
- Regression infrastructure and CI/CD verification flows
- Coverage-driven verification strategies
- AI-assisted verification tools
- Verification automation frameworks

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:

- 7+ years of industry experience in IP/SoC level design verification
- Proficient in IP-level ASIC or FPGA functional verification
- Proficient in debugging RTL using industry-standard simulation tools (Questa, Xcelium, VCS, Vivado Simulator)
- Proficient in UVM-based testbench development and constrained-random verification methodologies
- Strong hands-on experience with:
- SystemVerilog and UVM verification frameworks
- Assertion-based verification (SVA, PSL)
- Functional and code coverage closure
- Formal verification tools and methodologies

- Experience developing and maintaining verification frameworks, regression flows, and CI/CD verification pipelines
- Automating workflows in distributed compute environments (LSF or equivalent)
- Exposure to AI-assisted verification tools and automation frameworks
- Exposure to simulation acceleration, coverage-driven verification, and formal verification techniques
- Scripting experience: Python, Perl, shell, Makefile preferred
- Exposure to leadership or mentorship is an asset
- Prior experience with high-speed interface protocols is a solid plus, including:

- Video/Display: HDMI, DisplayPort (DP), MIPI DSI/CSI
- Connectivity: USB 3.x/4.0, PCIe Gen 4/5, Ethernet (1G/10G/25G/100G)
- Memory interfaces: DDR4/DDR5, LPDDR4/LPDDR5
- On-chip interconnects: AXI, AHB, APB
- SerDes and PHY-level protocol verification experience
