**Meet the Team**

The IoT Digital team is a state-of-the-art IC design team focused on producing world-class Wireless MCU SoCs. The team is responsible for architecture specification, design, verification, and implementation of these SoCs, which combine an embedded CPU system with analog and digital peripherals, advanced security, state-of-the-art power management, and best-in-class radios for a wide range of wireless IoT applications and standards.

**About the Role**

As a Design Verification Engineer, you will work closely with IC Design, System, and Architecture teams to develop and execute verification plans for the next generation of IoT chips. You will contribute across block and IP verification, mixed-signal integration, and SoC-level use-case validation. The role is suited to an Engineer or Senior Engineer at IC3; candidates with strong fundamentals will be considered alongside experienced candidates.

You will help ensure that designs meet their specifications through well-planned stimulus, assertions, coverage, and debug. You will also contribute to low-power verification and improve the flows and methodologies used to develop and integrate IP.

This is an opportunity to contribute directly to the quality and delivery of next-generation Wireless MCU SoCs.

**Responsibilities**

• Perform block- and IP-level verification to validate functionality, performance, and compliance with design requirements.

• Develop and execute verification plans based on architecture and design specifications, defining appropriate scenarios and closure criteria.

• Architect, implement, and maintain testbenches using SystemVerilog and UVM, including constrained-random stimulus, checkers, and assertions.

• Define and analyze functional coverage, identify gaps, and drive verification closure through coverage and regression analysis.

• Apply formal verification techniques to mixed-signal IP integration, including verification using real-number models (RNM).

• Integrate and verify SoC benches; define, test, and debug system use cases in collaboration with IC Design, System, and Architecture teams.

• Verify and debug low-power design behavior, including relevant power-management scenarios and interactions.

• Investigate failures, perform root-cause analysis, and communicate issues and verification status clearly to cross-functional teams.

• Improve verification flows and methodologies to streamline IP development, reuse, and integration.

• Contribute to reviews of specifications, verification plans, testbenches, and results, incorporating feedback to improve quality.

• Share reusable practices and technical learnings with the verification team.

**Requirements**

• B.E./B.Tech or M.E./M.Tech in Electrical Engineering, Electronics, Computer Engineering, VLSI, or a related field.

• For Senior Engineer positions, typically 5 or more years of relevant IC design or Design Verification experience; Engineer-level candidates with a strong foundation will also be considered.

• Industry experience developing testbenches and verification components using SystemVerilog and UVM.

• Knowledge of verification planning, constrained-random testing, SystemVerilog Assertions (SVA), and functional coverage analysis.

• Experience with scripting or programming languages such as Python, Perl, Shell, or Tcl.

• Working knowledge of software or firmware coding in C and the ability to work with design specifications and debug simulation results.

• Understanding of low-power implementation and verification concepts, including UPF.

• Strong analytical, debugging, communication, and collaboration skills.

**Preferred Qualifications**

• Experience with wireless SoCs, low-power IoT silicon, or MCU subsystems.

• Experience with AMBA interconnect protocols, including AXI and APB, and embedded systems.

• Exposure to mixed-signal verification, real-number modeling (RNM), or SPICE-based simulation.

• Experience with formal verification, SoC bench integration, or low-power verification using UPF.

• Experience verifying security-related IP or features is an advantage.

**"Experience with artificial intelligence (AI) powered tools and technologies used to enhance productivity, analysis, and decision-making"**
