Cspeed IO is developing next-generation optical semiconductor solutions for the AI infrastructure market, focused on enabling true “scale-up” architectures. Our mission is to replace traditional copper interconnects with advanced fiber-optic technologies that overcome the limitations of existing optics solutions and architectures.
SoC Verification – MTS SoC DV Engineer
Experience: 8–10 Years
Role Summary
This role serves as the hands-on technical lead for SoC Verifications. The position drives testbench architecture, scalable and reusable verification strategies, testbench development, verification sign-off, documentation, and team mentoring. Key responsibilities include functional and data path verification. The role ensures comprehensive verification sign-off and delivers a robust, high-quality, and reusable verification environment aligned with project objectives.
Key Responsibilities
- Define and drive verification strategy across sub-system and SoC-level domains.
- Develop verification environment from the scratch for complex SoC leveraging both C-based and UVM methodologies
- Develop and manage comprehensive test plans and coverage models.
- Collaborate with design teams to define system boot, reset sequence, and design configuration for various use-cases.
- Collaborate with design team to define debug architecture and debug/trace verification.
- Manage project milestones, deliverables, schedules, and cross-functional dependencies.
- Lead waveform and code review with team members and own technical documentation.
- Mentor and grow teams of DV engineers, including external contractors.
- Take full ownership of verification and final sign-off, following multiple review cycles that encompass functional correctness, power analysis, performance validation, gate-level simulations, and comprehensive coverage closure
- Support firmware/software bring-up and post-silicon debug.
Required Skills
- Strong hands-on experience in System Verilog and UVM methodology.
- Solid understanding of SoC TB architecture and test-plan creation
- Expertise in power-aware verification, including UPF-based methodologies and gate-level simulation.
- Experience in DV sign-off flows, rigorous checklist-based tracking to ensure completeness
- Strong debug skills across RTL, integration, and HW–SW interaction.
Added Advantage
- Python/TCL scripting experience and post-silicon bring-up
- Performance modeling and benchmarking.
