You have worked on complex verification projects and have experience with formal verification tools like Jasper or VC-Formal. Your skills in Python, Perl, or Shell scripting are a plus.
You are a team player with excellent communication skills, capable of mentoring junior engineers and collaborating with geographically diverse cross-functional teams. Your problem-solving abilities and attention to detail enable you to debug RTL designs effectively and identify causes of failure scenarios. You hold a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science or Electrical Engineering from a reputed engineering college.
What You'll Be Doing:
- Specifying, implementing, and maintaining an integrated end-to-end formal verification flow for the formal verification objective.
- Guiding and training team members on effective usage of FV tools.
- Reviewing formal setups and proofs with design and verification teams.
- Maintaining and extending assertion libraries, including support for both simulation and formal verification.
- Identifying key behaviors for verification of DUT and creating a formal verification plan.
- Developing verification environments, including environment assumptions, assertions, and cover properties in the context of the verification plan.
- Applying various formal verification techniques to prove the correctness of digital designs.
- Debugging RTL to identify causes of failure scenarios.
The Impact You Will Have:
- Enhance the reliability and quality of our digital designs through rigorous formal verification.
- Contribute to the development of high-performance silicon chips and software content.
- Improve the overall design and verification process by maintaining and extending assertion libraries.
- Facilitate knowledge sharing and skill development within the team by providing guidance and training on FV tools.
- Ensure the correctness of designs by identifying key behaviors and creating comprehensive verification plans.
- Support the success of geographically diverse cross-functional teams through effective collaboration and communication.
What You'll Need:
- Strong knowledge of architectures of designs and digital logic.
- Experience with synthesis flow and static timing flows, formal checking, etc.
- Hands-on experience with HDLs such as Verilog / System Verilog.
