What is a Verification Researcher job?

A Verification Researcher is responsible for developing and applying formal methods, mathematical proofs, and automated verification techniques to ensure the correctness of hardware or software systems. They work on verifying algorithms, protocols, or complex designs to detect errors before implementation. This role often involves using formal verification tools, model checking, and theorem proving. Verification Researchers collaborate with engineers and developers to improve system reliability and security. Their work is crucial in industries like semiconductor design, cybersecurity, and safety-critical systems such as automotive or aerospace.

What are the typical daily responsibilities of a Verification Researcher?

As a Verification Researcher, your daily tasks usually include designing and executing tests or experiments, reviewing documentation, analyzing results to identify inconsistencies or errors, and reporting findings to development or engineering teams. You may also participate in meetings to refine verification strategies, collaborate closely with product designers, and help establish best practices for quality assurance. The role often involves using specialized software tools and keeping up with evolving verification methodologies. This variety ensures you stay engaged and continuously contribute to the improvement of products or systems. You'll have opportunities to grow your expertise in testing and validation while making a meaningful impact on your organization's reliability standards.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the Verification Researcher position, and why are they important?

To excel as a Verification Researcher, you should possess strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and a relevant degree such as in engineering, computer science, or a related field. Familiarity with verification tools and methodologies (such as formal verification software, simulation environments, or industry certifications like ISTQB) is often required. Excellent communication, critical thinking, and collaboration abilities help you work effectively within multidisciplinary teams. These competencies are essential for ensuring the accuracy, reliability, and compliance of products or systems being verified.

If you are looking for a challenging and exciting career in the world of technology, then look no further. Skyworks is an innovator of high-performance analog semiconductors whose solutions are powering the wireless networking revolution. Through our broad technology expertise and one of the most extensive product portfolios in the industry, we are Connecting Everyone and Everything, All the Time.
At Skyworks, you will find a fast-paced environment with a strong focus on global collaboration, minimal layers of management, and the freedom to make meaningful contributions in a setting that encourages creative thinking. We are excited about the opportunity to work with you and glad you want to be part of a team of talented individuals who together are changing the way the world communicates.
Requisition ID: 76940
Job Description:
Description
We are seeking a visionary and technically accomplished Analog and Mixed-signal Verification Leader to found and lead our central AMS SoC Verification Team. In this role, you will architect and drive a world-class verification strategy that elevates our mixed-signal rigor, and ensures first-pass success for increasingly complex mixed-signal SoC designs. You will architect an enterprise-wide verification platform that leverages best-in-class tools, modern methodologies, and scalable automation-while championing the adoption of reusable verification IP and standardized flows across the company. By introducing advanced AMS verification techniques, enforcing coverage-driven discipline, and operationalizing a robust reusable infrastructure, you will drastically reduce functional escapes and shorten product cycle times. This is a transformative leadership role, reporting to the Sr. Director of EDA Engineering, where you will not only build a high-impact organization from the ground up but also shape the verification foundation for our next generation of silicon innovation.
Responsibilities
  • Define and implement a modern AMS SoC verification methodology using industry-best practices, automation, and coverage-driven techniques
  • Architect and grow an enterprise-wide verification platform leveraging best-in-class EDA tools, standardized flows, and scalable infrastructure
  • Collaborate closely with design and verification leaders across the company to drive continuous improvement
  • Bridge the gap between Design and Test with scalable methodologies to verify test program prior to tape-out and driving traceability all the way from requirements to ATE
  • Drive adoption of reusable Verification IP (VIP) and establish common libraries, models, and testbench components to improve consistency and efficiency across teams
  • Research, evaluate, and deploy AI/ML tools and techniques to enhance verification quality, predict bugs earlier, enable intelligent coverage closure, and improve overall efficiency
  • Develop and enforce verification quality metrics, including functional coverage, mixed-signal assertions, and convergence criteria to prevent functional escapes.
  • Develop a high-performing verification team, mentor engineers, and foster a culture of innovation, and technical excellence

Required Experience and Skills
  • Bachelor's degree or higher in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or related field
  • 20+ years of experience in deluvering best in class mixed-signal verification solutions in complex SoCs in both individual contributor and leadership roles
  • Expert-level knowledge of analog, digital, and mixed-signal SoC verification methodologies, including UVM, real-number modeling, AMS simulation techniques, and metric-driven verification.
  • Strong understanding of complex SoC integration, mixed-signal interfaces, behavioral modeling, and end-to-end verification flows.
  • Hands-on proficiency with industry-leading verification tools and platforms, including mixed-signal simulators, waveform analysis tools, regression systems, and enterprise-scale verification infrastructure.
  • Proven ability to design and standardize enterprise verification environments, including reusable VIP, shared libraries and frameworks to continuously verify the model against design
  • Deep familiarity with AI/ML technologies applied to verification, such as generation of verification harness from specs, end-to-end RCA, model generation and agentic flows that provide a true top-down verification system.
  • Demonstrated experience building, scaling, and mentoring high-performing verification teams, including hiring senior technical talent and establishing a culture of rigor and technical excellence.
  • Proficiency in automation and scripting-especially Python-to build scalable regression systems, tool integration, data pipelines, and workflow automation that improves team efficiency and quality
  • Excellent cross-functional communication and leadership skills, enabling effective alignment with analog design, digital design, architecture, test engineering, and EDA/tool teams.

Desired Experience and Skills
  • Experience with formal verification, including property checking, assertion development, and formal methods to complement simulation-based verification
  • Experience with emulation platforms (e.g., Palladium, Veloce, Zebu) to validate mixed-signal subsystems and accelerate system-level verification
  • Background in functional safety standards (e.g., ISO 26262, IEC 61508), including safety analysis, FMEDA inputs, and verification practices targeting safety-critical SoCs.
