Full-time: Salary + Benefits + Bonuses | Contractor Opportunities Available
Work Status: US Citizen or Lawful Permanent Resident
Location: Remote — Anywhere in the USA
Build the Future of High-Performance SoCs
We are looking for talented ASIC Verification Engineers to join our growing team and help deliver next-generation networking, AI accelerator, and high-performance compute SoCs.
This is an opportunity to work on complex silicon designs where verification quality directly impacts first-pass silicon success. You’ll own critical verification challenges, build scalable environments, debug sophisticated RTL issues, and collaborate with experienced engineers across design, software, emulation, and post-silicon teams.
If you enjoy solving hard verification problems, building robust methodologies, and pushing the limits of SoC performance and reliability, we’d like to hear from you.
What You’ll Do

• Own end-to-end ASIC/SoC verification activities from test planning through coverage closure and signoff.
• Develop and enhance SystemVerilog/UVM-based verification environments at block, subsystem, and full-chip levels.
• Create verification plans, write comprehensive test scenarios, run regressions, and drive debugging to closure.
• Partner closely with RTL designers, architects, firmware teams, emulation, and post-silicon validation engineers.
• Analyze failures, identify root causes, and help deliver high-quality silicon on aggressive schedules.
• Improve verification productivity by adopting automation, advanced methodologies, and AI-assisted tools.
• Contribute to verification best practices and mentor team members as the organization grows.

What You’ll Bring

• 4+ years of hands-on ASIC/SoC verification experience.
• Strong expertise in SystemVerilog, UVM, VCS, Verdi, and industry-standard verification flows.
• Experience building verification environments from the ground up.
• Solid understanding of complex SoC designs including multi-clock, CDC, and reset-domain architectures.
• Proficiency with scripting and automation using Python, Tcl, Perl, or Shell.
• Experience with source control tools such as Git or SVN.
• Background verifying high-speed networking and communication technologies.
• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field (Master’s preferred).

Why Join Us?
You’ll work with a highly skilled engineering team tackling some of the toughest challenges in high-speed networking, AI acceleration, and advanced semiconductor design. We value engineers who are hands-on, curious, and passionate about building silicon that makes a real impact.
The anticipated annual base salary for this position is between $120,000 to $135,000, which also includes a comprehensive benefits package.
Full-Time Benefits:
• 15 days of PTO per calendar year
