IC Verification Engineer

Job description

Detailed task description Experience

6 - 12 Years

• Collect, discuss, and evaluate requirements related to IC test & validation concept(s) in cooperation with other disciplines' developers Actively support system and/or IC concept and architecture definition, considering feasibility with semiconductor technologies and test strategy
• Apply new validation concepts to the design verification.
• Define requirements of the IC validation together in cooperation with other disciplines' developers Specify IC validation characteristics and interfaces within component specification document Responsible for the technical communication with the ASIC supplier during the whole ASIC development Judge and approve simulation/design results in consideration of defined system requirements Decide on optimal IC verification concept based on simulation results and worst-case calculations
• Evaluate technical and development risks for IC development together with ASIC PM Plan time schedule for dedicated ASIC project tasks, track validation progress, perform bench tests
• Create and maintain development documents
• Apply configuration and change management, apply quality assurance management From circuits specifications, ASIC verification engineer should specify verification strategies and testbench architectures (SystemVerilog, UVM, C-driven, others) to ensure optimum verification coverages Elaborate detailed verification plans corresponding to circuit specifications
• Develop verification environments and tests/sequences according to verification plans Responsible of the definition of the verification strategies, of their implementation and of the verification quality
• Improve the verification flow He is responsible for carrying out all assigned tasks with a focus on function, quality, test architecture, test coverage, schedule, and delivery of verification in time.

Together with other disciplines' developers, the verification engineer is defining integration concepts, specifying the IC test requirements, defining related test architecture, and verifying implemented functions. The is taking care about process implementation and schedule IC (ASIC) Verification The engineer is responsible for developing functional models for Analog and/or Digital IPs. Developing Digital and analog/mixed-signal test benches, Interaction between IPs at chip level (analog and digital), developing test benches, Functional verification, Technical support of co-workers and IP designers, Provide technical support to test engineers
