Position: Senior Formal Verification Engineer (BB80FT RM 4341)

Role Overview

We are looking for a Senior Formal Verification Engineer to own formal sign-off for complex, highspeed IP blocks and subsystems. The ideal candidate combines deep formal methodology expertise with strong hands-on SystemVerilog/UVM verification experience on complex protocol IPs such as

DDR, PCIe, and Ethernet.

Key Responsibilities

- Own end-to-end Formal Property Verification (FPV) for complex IP and subsystem blocks — from test plan and property/assertion development through proof convergence and sign-off
- Perform formal connectivity checking, X-propagation, CDC/RDC-adjacent formal analysis, and register/CSR formal verification
- Apply advanced formal techniques — abstraction, case-splitting, cut-points, and complexity reduction — to achieve convergence on large, complex designs
- Develop and review SystemVerilog Assertions (SVA) for protocol compliance, data integrity, and corner-case behavior on DDR, PCIe, &/or Ethernet IP
- Complement formal sign-off with strong SV/UVM simulation-based verification where needed — testbench architecture, VIP integration, coverage closure
- Collaborate closely with RTL design and architecture teams to debug counterexamples, refine specifications,



and drive verification closure
- Mentor junior verification engineers and contribute to formal verification methodology and best practices across the team

Required Skills & Experience

- 8+ years of verification experience, with substantial hands-on Formal Verification (FPV) ownership
- Strong expertise with industry-standard formal tools — Cadence JasperGold and/or Synopsys VC Formal
- Proven experience verifying complex, high-speed protocol IP — DDR, PCIe, and/or Ethernet strongly preferred
- Strong System Verilog and UVM expertise, with the ability to work across both formal and simulation-based verification flows
- Solid understanding of AMBA protocols (AXI/AHB/APB) and general SoC-level verification concepts
- Experience with assertion IP (AIP) development and formal connectivity/architectural verification is a strong plus
- Excellent debugging skills and ability to work directly with design/architecture teams to resolve complex issues

Positive to Have

- Experience with high-speed SerDes or PHY-layer verification
- Exposure to low-power verification and UPF-based formal flows
- Prior experience mentoring teams or leading formal verification efforts on a project
