Design Verification Architect

Job Overview

Defines, architects, and documents verification strategy and methodologies for implementing and verifying the silicon design in the most optimal manner. Architects the test benches and develops universal verification methodology (UVM) or formal based verification approaches. Integrates the block testbench in chip-level UVM environment and verifies integration. Develops test strategy, test bench architecture, and test plans for design blocks to conform to specifications.

Enables interaction with analoga and digital teams and supports postsilicon validation activities. Collaborates with the architecture and design team to create random test generation plans, runs functional simulation to identify gaps in design specification, and conducts failure analysis, coverage analysis, and closure. Defines and develops the security validation strategy and validation infrastructure to incorporate security tools and methods to improve security coverage.

Architect test benches, develop verification methodology, integrate block test benches into chip-level UVM environment, verify integration, create test strategy and plans, interact with analog/digital teams, support postsilicon validation, collaborate on random test generation plans, run functional simulations, conduct failure and coverage analysis, develop security validation strategy and infrastructure.
