• Build verification components such as drivers, monitors, predictors, scoreboards, and sequencers.

• Develop Functional Coverage Models and perform Code Coverage analysis to ensure complete design verification.

• Create and execute regression test suites while tracking coverage metrics and verification progress.

• Support FPGA prototyping, hardware integration, and system validation activities based on program requirements.

• Collaborate with design, systems, and software engineering teams to develop accurate, verifiable ASIC/FPGA specifications.

• Analyze simulation results, debug verification issues using waveform analysis tools, and drive resolution of design discrepancies.

• Utilize revision control systems and Linux-based development environments to support collaborative engineering efforts.

• Contribute to the successful delivery of production-quality ASIC/FPGA designs.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering (Electrical, Mechanical, or Aeronautical), Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Data Science, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, or an equivalent technical discipline.

• Proven experience with ASIC and FPGA verification methodologies.

• Strong expertise in SystemVerilog, UVM, and SystemVerilog Assertions (SVA).

• Experience defining ASIC/FPGA verification architectures and supporting production design releases.

• Demonstrated ability to develop reusable, self-checking verification environments from the ground up.

• Experience implementing comprehensive verification test plans.

• Strong understanding of Object-Oriented Programming concepts, including inheritance and polymorphism.

• Experience developing Functional Coverage Models and achieving Code Coverage closure.

• Ability to collaborate with design and systems engineering teams to establish robust verification strategies.

• Experience using waveform debugging tools.

• Proficiency with Linux operating systems.

• Experience with revision control systems such as Git, SVN, or CVS.

Preferred Qualifications

• 15+ years of related engineering experience or an equivalent combination of education and experience.

• Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.

• Experience with hardware integration and testing of ASIC/FPGA designs.

• Experience using hardware emulation platforms, particularly Cadence Palladium.

• Knowledge of high-speed serial interfaces such as JESD204C, PCIe, and Ethernet.

• Proficiency with scripting languages including Python, Perl, Make, or similar automation tools.

• Experience with space-qualified electronic design techniques and radiation mitigation strategies.

• Demonstrated track record of first-pass ASIC design success.
