Join Qualcomm's design verification team in verifying the high-speed mixed-signal IP designs (PCIe, USB, MIPI, CXL, C2C, D2D, DDR, PLL, DAC, ADC, Sensors, etc.) for exciting products targeted for 5G, AI/ML, compute, IOT, and automotive applications. The team is responsible for the complete design verification lifecycle, from system-level concept to tape out and post-silicon support.

Responsibilities:

• Define pre-silicon and post-silicon testplans based on design specs and using applicable standards working closely with design team.
• Architect and develop the testbench using advanced verification methodology such as SystemVerilog/UVM, Analog/mixed signal simulation, Low power verification, Formal verification and Gate level simulation to ensure high design quality.
• Author assertions in SVA, develop testcases, coverage models, debug and ensure coverage closure.
• Work with digital design, analog circuit design, modeling, controller/subsystem, & SoC integration teams to complete the successful PHY level verification, integration into subsystem and SoC, and post-silicon validation.

Minimum Qualifications:

• Master's/Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.
• 12+ years ASIC design verification, or related work experience.
• Knowledge of a HVL methodology like SystemVerilog/UVM.
• Experience working with various ASIC simulation/formal tools such as VCS, Xcellium/NCsim, Modelsim/Questa, VCFormal, Jaspergold, 0In and others.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with Low power design verification, Formal verification and Gate level simulation.
• Knowledge of standard protocols such as PCIe, USB, MIPI, LPDDR, etc.,
• Experience in scripting languages (Python, or Perl).
• Experience with mixed-signal IP design verification, such as USB, PCIe, CXL, C2C, D2D, MIPI, UFS, DDR, PLL, Data Convertors (DAC, ADC), or sensors.
