Silicon Design Verification Engineer

AMD AMD · Semiconductors · San Jose, CA · Engineering

This role is for a Silicon Design Verification Engineer at AMD, focusing on verifying complex IP designs for processors. Responsibilities include creating test plans, designing testbenches using System Verilog and UVM, formal verification, debugging, and ensuring quality metrics. The role requires a Master's degree in computer or electrical engineering and experience with verification methodologies and scripting languages.

What you'd actually do

  1. Work with senior verification engineers and create test plans for complex IP designs.
  2. Design testbenches in System Verilog and UVM to complete verification of the design in an efficient manner.
  3. Create and enhance constrained-random and/or directed verification environments, and formally verify designs with System Verilog Assertions (SVA) and industry leading formal tools
  4. Debug tests with design engineers to deliver functionally correct design blocks and close the coverage.
  5. Coordinate with RTL engineers to implement logic design for better clock gating and verify the various aspects of the design
