Job Summary

We are seeking an experienced C-based FPGA Pre-Silicon Verification Engineer to drive verification activities for next-generation FPGA platform. In this role, you will develop and execute verification strategies for FPGA verification. You will work closely with RTL designers, architects, firmware teams, and validation engineers to ensure robust functional coverage and early bug detection across complex FPGA designs. The role involves developing C/C++ based test frameworks, firmware-driven verification environments, simulation based verification flows, and hardware/software co-verification methodologies. You will contribute to pre-silicon verification using SystemVerilog/UVM environments while leveraging embedded software, BFMs, and protocol stacks to validate real-world use cases.

You will independently manage complex verification tasks, debug RTL and firmware interactions, analyze failures, and drive verification closure. The ideal candidate will have robust expertise in FPGA/SoC architectures, embedded software development, and pre-silicon verification methodologies.

This role also includes mentoring engineers, defining best practices, and contributing to innovation and continuous improvement in verification methodologies and automation flows.
