Verification Engineer

Overview

Within the Crypto & Security Competence Center
, you will be part of a dedicated team focusing on research and development for future security applications, ranging from hardware IP design to strong end-to-end security solutions.

For our Security Design team in Glasgow, UK
, we are looking for a highly motivated Verification Engineer to join our team.

At this site, our engineers are actively involved in all aspects of security hardware design, delivering high-end security IP into multiple NXP business lines and a variety of market segments, including Automotive, Microcontrollers, Banking / Mobile and Connectivity
. Engineers contribute throughout the full product lifecycle, from requirements capture and architectural definition through development and verification, to test-chip and silicon validation.

As a Verification Engineer, your responsibilities will include:

• Verification of digital hardware architectures (cryptographic and/or security aspects are beneficial but not essential)
• Creating, reviewing, and maintaining verification plans, and tracking verification progress
• Specifying and developing verification strategies, tests, and environments for security features and hardware co-processors
• Working with emerging verification methodologies and introducing them into existing verification flows

To ensure success in this role, the following skills and experience are desired:

• Experience developing System Verilog test benches
  , including constrained-random verification and UVM-based environments
• Knowledge or understanding of verification for cryptographic algorithms and secure hardware architectures is an advantage
• Experience with design flows, version control systems,
  Verilog
  , and microcontroller-based designs is beneficial

Furthermore, you should demonstrate:

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
• Good communication skills and a proactive, self-driven attitude
