AMS Verification Engineer - System Verilog

Job Description :

The position involves design verification of next generation IPs /SoCs with emphasis on verifying and signing off performance and power along with functionality by developing the needed RNM models . This role will require the candidate to understand and work on all aspects of VLSI Verification cycle like Testbench architecture, Verification Planning, Testbench and Test development, Verification closure with best-in-class methodologies including simulation, GLS . Candidate will require close interactions with Design, SoC , Validation, Synthesis & PD teams for design convergence. Candidate must be able to take ownership of IP/Block/SS verification.

Responsibilities :

- Leading a project for AMS requirements is a value add.

- Proficiency in AMS simulation environment using Cadence/Synopsys/Mentor tools. Knowledge of digital design techniques, Verilog HDL, and standard RTL coding styles, as well as analog circuit basics, with previous analog design experience a plus.

- Candidate should be familiar with the concepts of behavioral modeling both digital (Verilog-D) and analog (Verilog-A or Verilog-AMS).

- Experience in SV and UVM testbench development/modifications from mixed signal perspective is a plus.

- Functional knowledge of analog and mixed signal building blocks, such as comparators, op-amps, switched cap circuits, various types of ADCs and DACs, current mirrors, charge pumps, and regulators is expected.

- Experience working on AMS Verification on multiple SOCs or sub-systems.

- Working knowledge of Perl / Skill/ Python/Tcl or other scripting relevant language is a plus.

- Candidate should have ability to lead a project team, and work collaboratively in a multi-site development environment.

- Delivery oriented, Passionate to learn and explore, Transparent in communication, Flexibility related to project situations.

- Candidates should have a good knowledge of analog and mixed signal electronics, test-plan development, tools and flows.

- Develop and execute top-level test cases, self-checking test benches and regressions suites.

- Developing and validating high-performance behavior models.

- Verifying of block-level and chip-level functionality and performance.

- Team player with good communication skills and previous experience in delivering solutions for a multi-national client.

Tool suites :

- Predominantly analog (Cadence Virtuoso).

- SPICE simulator experience.

- Fluent with Cadence-based flowCreate schematics, Simulator/Netlist options etc.

- Ability to extract simulation results, capture in a document and present to the team for peer review.

- Supporting silicon evaluation and comparing measurement results with simulations.

- UVM and assertion knowledge would be an advantage.

Experience Level : 5 to 15 years (with strong hands-on AMS Verification expertise; 712 years preferred), Work

Location : Hyderabad , Bangalore.

Education Requirements : Bachelor or Masters degree in Electrical and/or Computer Engineering.

Minimum Qualifications :

- Strong understanding of analog circuits, digital design processes, and top-level integration.

- Basic knowledge of PMIC and DC-DC converters.

- Excellent simulation debugging skills, with the ability to analyze waveforms and identify issues in schematics, models, or RTL.

- Proficient in Unix environment and shell scripting, with a basic understanding of Python.
