A "SoC Pre-Sil Verification Engineer" with 9 to 15 years of experience is a senior-level position in semiconductor companies involved in the pre-silicon verification of System-on-Chip (SoC) designs. The job description for this role typically includes the following responsibilities and qualifications:

Responsibilities:

  1. Verification Planning: Develop comprehensive verification plans for SoC designs based on architectural specifications, design requirements, and industry standards.
  2. Testbench Development: Design and implement advanced verification environments and testbenches using SystemVerilog, UVM (Universal Verification Methodology), and other verification languages and methodologies.
  3. Test Case Development: Create and execute test cases to verify SoC functionality, performance, power management, and compliance with design specifications.
  4. Functional Verification: Perform functional verification of complex SoC components, including processors, memory subsystems, interfaces, and peripherals.
  5. Coverage Analysis: Define and analyze coverage metrics (functional coverage, code coverage, assertion coverage) to ensure thorough verification of SoC designs and identify verification completeness.
  6. Debugging and Issue Resolution: Debug verification failures, analyze issues, and work closely with design and architecture teams to resolve issues and improve design quality.
  7. Verification Methodology: Stay updated with the latest verification methodologies, tools, and best practices to continuously improve verification efficiency and effectiveness.
  8. Documentation: Maintain documentation of verification plans, test cases, coverage reports, verification results, and design reviews to track progress and ensure compliance with project timelines.

Qualifications:

  1. Education: Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.
  2. Experience: 9 to 15 years of hands-on experience in pre-silicon verification of complex SoC designs, including experience in developing verification environments, testbenches, and test cases.
  3. Verification Tools and Methodologies: Proficiency in using industry-standard verification tools such as Synopsys VCS, Cadence Incisive, Mentor Questa, etc., and familiarity with advanced verification methodologies like UVM, OVM, and constrained random testing.
  4. Programming Skills: Strong programming skills in languages like SystemVerilog, C/C++, Perl, or Python for testbench development, verification automation, and scripting.
  5. Debugging Skills: Excellent debugging and problem-solving skills to analyze and resolve verification failures, identify root causes, and propose effective solutions.
  6. Communication and Teamwork: Strong communication skills to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams, present technical information, and participate in design reviews and discussions.
  7. Leadership Skills: Experience leading verification tasks, mentoring junior engineers, and driving verification projects to successful completion.
  8. Industry Knowledge: Deep understanding of semiconductor industry standards, protocols, architectures, and design verification methodologies.

A SoC Pre-Sil Verification Engineer with 9 to 15 years of experience plays a crucial role in ensuring the functional correctness, performance, and reliability of SoC designs before they are fabricated, contributing significantly to the success of semiconductor products.
