 Job Summary

We are seeking an experienced ASIC Verification Engineer with strong expertise in ARM IPs to support end-to-end verification of advanced AI-driven ASIC designs. The role involves working across high-performance application processors and ultra-low-power microcontroller architectures, ensuring design quality and reliability. The ideal candidate will have deep experience with Cortex-A and Cortex-M based SoCs and modern verification methodologies.

Key Responsibilities

• Own and drive verification of ARM-based IP blocks across the full project lifecycle
• Perform specification reviews and develop comprehensive verification plans
• Design and implement test cases, UVM environments, and verification frameworks
• Execute functional, regression, and gate-level simulations (GLS)
• Perform coverage analysis and ensure coverage closure (functional and code)
• Debug complex issues across SoC-level and IP-level designs
• Work with cross-functional teams to improve design quality and verification processes
• Provide feedback on architecture and design decisions
• Collaborate with global verification teams to enhance methodologies and best practices

Required Experience

• 5+ years of hands-on experience in ASIC/SoC verification
• Strong experience with ARM Cortex-A (Cortex-A9 preferred; newer versions are a plus)
• Experience with Cortex-A and Cortex-M based SoCs (Cortex-M4, Cortex-M55)
• Experience with multi-core systems, MMU, cache hierarchies (L1/L2), and cache coherency validation
• Experience with AXI/APB interconnects, DMA, interrupts, and power management
• Experience with CoreSight/JTAG-based debug systems
• Hands-on experience with ARM VIP and golden model-driven verification
• Strong understanding of low-power and high-performance architecture design
