As a SoC Design Verification Lead, you will be responsible to lead the DV effort for Celestial AI/ML SoC. You will be responsible for verification execution, driving efficiencies in verification strategy for an SoC from pre-silicon simulation through post-silicon validation and through the SoC production

You would have organizational leadership experience in supporting high-performance teams and processes, be a strategic problem-solver with demonstrated collaboration and communication skills.

Responsibilities:

• Lead DV effort to define and review verification and validation testplans at block, IP and SoC
• Build, manage and mentor a team of ASIC/SoC verification engineers – including managing external verification contractors/consultants.
• Work with ASIC/SoC design team to manage critical milestones and deliveries
• Work with Architecture, Design and Verification technical leads to shape the SoC verification methodologies and processes and to ensure DV reusability
• Work with software team to validate complete tool chain including running real world use cases on verification models
• Create coverage driven verification plans from specification, review and refine to achieve coverage targets
• Provide technical leadership through mentorship and strong teamwork

Requirements:

• Natural leader who enjoys working with hardware and software development teams
• Excellent organization skills to prioritize requirements.
• Experience in pre-silicon verification with developing and maintaining complex SoC design verification environments in OVM, UVM and System Verilog -experience with High Level Synthesis and System C preferred
• Hands-on experience in execution of verification plans
• Successful tapeout of IP, CPU, GPU, AI/ML or any complex SoC development highly desirable.
• Prior verification experience in PCIe, on-chip memory, ARM AXI, APB protocols and on-chip NOC
• Experience in Python and scripting.
• Team player that proactively engages with cross functional engineering teams.
• Experience working with and directing external contractors and verification consultants
• BSEE + 6 years of relevant design verification and management experience
