### Job Title

Director of SoC Design Verification Overview We are seeking a seasoned Director of SoC Design Verification with 20+ years of experience to lead verification for our next-generation System-on-Chip products. This is a hands-on leadership role where you will define the SoC-level verification strategy, oversee execution across multiple IPs and subsystems, and ensure first-pass silicon success for complex designs in compute, networking, and storage domains.

### Key Responsibilities

Own and drive the end-to-end SoC verification methodology, ensuring seamless integration of IP-level verification into system-level environments. Lead, mentor, and grow a diverse team of engineers, fostering technical excellence, innovation, and collaboration. Guide verification of complex SoC subsystems including HSIO, peripherals, interconnects, memory controllers, coherency fabrics, and system-level protocols. Champion advanced methodologies (UVM, formal verification, emulation, AI-augmented flows) to accelerate coverage closure and improve efficiency.

Collaborate closely with RTL design, architecture, firmware, and validation teams to debug, refine, and optimize SoC-level verification processes. Represent verification in executive reviews, customer engagements, and industry forums. Shape workforce transformation by building hybrid skill sets and preparing the team for AI-driven verification challenges.

### Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in Electrical or Computer Engineering (Master’s preferred). 20+ years of experience in design verification, with a proven track record of leading teams and delivering complex SoC/silicon products. Deep expertise in SoC-level verification, including interconnect fabrics, coherency protocols, HSIO, and peripheral subsystems. Strong background in UVM-based test plan development, assertions, coverage analysis, and abstraction layer design.

Demonstrated ability to manage priorities, engage with stakeholders, and drive organizational success.

### Required Experience

Hands-on expertise with SoC-level verification environments, including integration of multiple IPs, HSIO, and peripherals. Deep experience in UVM-based test plan development, sequence generation, and coverage analysis. Strong background in writing assertions, cover properties, and analyzing coverage data at both IP and SoC levels. Experience in developing scalable verification infrastructures to simplify and accelerate SoC-level deployments.

### Preferred Experience

Expertise in verifying complex SoC subsystems such as NoC-based interconnects, coherency fabrics, HSIO, and memory hierarchies. Experience with buffering, queuing, QoS, and system-level performance analysis. Familiarity with emulation, FPGA prototyping, and hybrid verification flows. Knowledge of AI-driven verification methodologies and workforce transformation strategies. Experience with AI/ML accelerators, networking, automotive, data center, or high-performance computing SoCs.

Familiarity with low-power verification methodologies and power-aware verification. Why Join Us? Opportunity to lead cutting-edge SoC development programs. Influence verification strategy across next-generation products. Build and grow a world-class verification organization. Work with highly talented engineering teams on innovative technologies. We know that creativity and innovation happen more often when teams include diverse ideas, backgrounds, and experiences, and we actively encourage everyone with relevant experience to apply, including people of color, LGBTQ+ and non-binary people, veterans, parents, and individuals with disabilities.
