APPLY HERE
Location: Bengaluru
Company: Texas Instruments
As a Verification technologist, you will play a pivotal role in ensuring the quality and reliability of our advanced RADAR products. You will be responsible for the verification of IP, Subsystem (SS), and System-on-Chip (SoC) designs, delivering the ATE patterns and customer debugs on top of contributing to the development of robust verification methodologies and strategies adhering to ISO26262/ISO21434 standards.
Responsibilities
End-to-End ownership of IP/subsystem/SOC DV/Post silicon TDL handoffs ownership right from spec definition till the post silicon verification and solving the customer issues. This includes:
- Technical:
- Active involvement with architecture team during the spec definition phase
- Verification strategy definition along with Verification plan to meet 100% spec to regression traceability along with standard signoff metrics
- IP/SS/SOC verification covering functional and Firmware scenarios in RTL/PARTL, GLS/PAGLS modes.
- DV Environment ownership: TB definition & development, enhancements including UVC integration, checkers and coverage monitor updates along with DV flow updates as per the project needs
- Active collaboration with cross-functional teams -Architecture, RTL, PD, DFT, Systems, Analog, FW and application teams -to enable the Verification goals for IP/Subsystem/SOC starting from spec definition till post-silicon verification closure activities
- Final SoC DV signoff based on Regressions, coverage metrics, DV to spec traceability using C and/or SV-UVM adhering to ISO26262/ ISO21434 guidelines
- Active involvement in the customer reviews and certifications (ISO26262/ISO21434).
- Innovation Mindset
- Led end-to-end Design Verification (DV) projects by defining verification strategies and guiding technical execution.
- First-pass silicon success by driving close technical collaboration across design, architecture, and validation teams.
- Learn, Evaluate and deploy advanced verification strategies—including AI/ML-based frameworks—integrating key learnings from previous projects to maximise verification quality and test bench efficiency.
Qualifications
6-12 years of DV experience in IP/SS/SOC/Post silicon DV with a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in EE/ECE/CS or related specialisations
Skills
- Experience in the following areas: C-based SoC design verification (DV), firmware verification exposure, scripting knowledge (Perl/Python/AI/ML-based DV), DV flow ownership for functional/firmware verification, deep understanding of UVM/SystemVerilog, Specman, GLS/PAGLS/UPF-based verification, post-silicon verification, etc.
- Thorough knowledge of standard protocols, such as AXI, AHB, APB, CAN, Ethernet, I2C, SPI, UART, and high-speed interfaces like CSI and Ethernet.
