AMS Verification Lead Engineer

Change the world. Love your job.

Who are we and what do we do?

The Custom product business is delivering industry leading custom IC system solutions including display and touch power products, camera PMICs, charger power products, power switches/muxes, Laser drivers, High speed communication interfaces. Our solutions integrate signal chain and power components, that enable TI customers to differentiate their next-gen products in the personal electronics domain. This is a great opportunity to be part of the best custom semiconductor team in the world.

What will you be doing in this role? (Responsibilities)

• Verification of complex analog designs/systems, support validation of the design on silicon.
• High quality, timely release of meticulously analyzed and simulated IC designs. These designs should lead to best performance, cost ­effective, high quality, bug­ free products that fully meet our customer’s end­ system requirements
• Definition, specification, modeling, planning and implementation of AMS verification strategy for mixed ­signal ICs (70+% Analog). ­ Implementation and debug of AMS verification environments, regression testing, reporting of results and coverage analysis.
• Write detailed verification plans to cover project requirements for top-level AMS functionality, and construct test cases exercising the plan.
• Evaluate system-level use-cases and re-create these in simulation.
• Enable high quality verification through efficient use of bug tracking tools and methods, including back-annotation of DV implementation into verification plan to show closure of functional requirements.
• Planning, leading and tracking of design & verification projects in a global organization
• ­Post layout parasitic extraction and simulation, verification of all IC level performance metrics­
• Contribute to continuous improvements for quality and efficiency on design verification strategy, tools, methods and flows.

What do we expect from you? (Mini Qualifications)

Knowledge and Skills

• Strong background in defining and developing verification Infrastructure for Mixed Signal semiconductor products
• Good understanding of analog circuits, ability to come up with Analog Models required
• Expertise in Cadence Virtuoso, Cadence Spectre/ TISpice, Verilog- AMS/ System Verilog
• Thorough understanding of AMS simulations, digital RTL, analog schematics
• Exposure to supporting post silicon investigations to ensure silicon measurements match pre-silicon verification results
