Design Verification Engineer, Silicon

Google Google · Big Tech · Mountain View, CA +1

Develops custom silicon solutions for Google's direct-to-consumer products, focusing on hardware experiences. Responsibilities include planning verification, developing verification environments using SystemVerilog and UVM, designing coverage measures, debugging test failures, and analyzing coverage data. Requires a Bachelor's degree and 4 years of RTL verification experience.

What you'd actually do

  1. Plan the verification of complex digital design blocks by analyzing specifications and collaborating with design engineers to identify critical scenarios.
  2. Develop and enhance constrained-random verification environments using SystemVerilog and Universal Verification Methodology (UVM), or formally verify designs using SystemVerilog Assertions (SVA).
  3. Design and implement comprehensive coverage measures to target functional stimulus and corner-case scenarios.
  4. Debug test failures in collaboration with design engineers to ensure functionally correct digital blocks.
  5. Analyze coverage data to identify verification gaps and track progress toward tape-out milestones.
