• Play a pivotal role in delivering robust, scalable solutions for the most demanding semiconductor applications

What You’ll Need:

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related discipline.
• 2–14 years of experience in formal verification or EDA tool validation.
• Hands-on experience with formal verification tools such as Synopsys VC Formal
• Proficient in developing synthesizable code for development of assertion IPs like APB, AHB, AXI, ACE, CHI, I2C and SPI protocols. Knowledge of DDR, CXL, PCIe, Ethernet, USB is a bonus.
• Proficient in writing/understanding of System Verilog Assertions (SVA)
• Proficiency in scripting languages (Python, Perl, Tcl) within Unix/Linux environments.

Who You Are:

• Analytical problem-solver with strong debugging skills and attention to detail.
• Effective communicator, able to convey technical concepts clearly across teams.
• Collaborative team player with a proactive approach to sharing insights and feedback.
• Adaptable and eager to learn new technologies and methodologies.
• Driven by curiosity, innovation, and a commitment to excellence.

The Team You’ll Be A Part Of:

You will join a dynamic and diverse engineering team focused on developing and validating world-class formal verification solutions. The team thrives on innovation, collaboration, and technical rigor, working closely with R&D, product management, and application engineers to deliver impactful products. You’ll be part of a supportive environment that values continuous learning, open communication, and the pursuit of excellence in every aspect of tool development.
