Custom SOC IP Verification Engineer

NVIDIA · Austin, TX · 2 days ago
EngineeringFull-time

Responsibilities

  • ASIC design verification of fabric and interconnect IP blocks as well as full chip integration, covering DMA, routing, arbitration, ordering, flow control, and protocol compliance.
  • Develop and implement test plans for fabric and interconnect verification of SoCs using UVM-based environments, targeting both IP-level and system-level scenarios.
  • Design and implement constrained-random and directed SystemVerilog testbenches targeting interconnect fabrics, network-on-chip (NoC) topologies, and multi-agent SoC integrations.
  • Collaborate extensively with Architecture, SW/FW, Design, Modeling, Emulation, and Post-Silicon Validation teams to ensure comprehensive first-time right verification plans and execution.
  • Drive the development of silicon and platform verification strategies and methodologies for fabric and interconnect subsystems.

Requirements

  • B.S. or M.S. degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
  • 6+ years of experience in ASIC verification, with a strong focus on fabric, interconnect, or network-on-chip verification at both IP and full chip levels.
  • Strong knowledge of SystemVerilog and UVM methodology.
  • Hands-on experience with industry-standard interconnect and bus protocols (e.g., AMBA AXI, CHI, or equivalent), with solid understanding of ordering, coherency, and flow control semantics.
  • Familiarity with SoC architectures, NoC topologies, and multi-initiator/multi-target interconnect designs.
  • Proficiency in scripting languages (Python, Perl, TCL).

Qualifications

  • Knowledge of performance verification and bandwidth/latency analysis for interconnect fabrics.
  • Exposure to verification IPs for bus protocols, or emulation platforms (e.g., Palladium, Veloce) for full chip fabric validation.
  • Experience in GPU or AI accelerator SoC interconnect verification is desirable.
  • Experience with formal verification or assertion-based verification (SVA) applied to fabric and protocol properties.
