Design Verification Manager

Description

The RADAR product line is a rapidly expanding business within TI, investing to address the fast-growing segment in Industrial & automotive markets. This product line will enable a scalable portfolio using DSP and ARM multi-cores to support high-end applications in ADAS, body & Chassis and in Industrial space. Radar systems process digital information from sources like digital cameras, lasers, radar and other sensors to perform tasks such as lane departure warning or parking assistance. The processed information can be displayed on screens or announced via acoustical warning signals. The system has multifaceted features such as High precision ADC, extremely accurate chirp, wide range visibility and Faster scene processing abilities. As a Verification Engineer, 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, contributing to the development of robust verification methodologies, strategies and team.

Responsibilities:

Complete ownership of IP/subsystem/SOC DV ownership right from spec definition till the post silicon verification and solving the customer issues on need basis. This includes:

• Build, Mentor and scale high preforming verification team across IP, Subsystem and SoC level

• Lead verification activities for overall verification strategy, methodology, infrastructure and execution plans across multiple SoC programs.

• Verification strategy definition along with Verification plan to meet 100% spec to regression traceability along with signoff metrics.

• IP/SS/SOC verification covering functional and Firmware scenarios in RTL/PARTL, GLS/PAGLS modes.

• DV Environment ownership: TB development/enhancements including checkers and coverage monitor definitions 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 guidelines

• Active involvement in the customer reviews and certifications (ISO26262/ISO21434).

Qualifications

Qualifications:

• 8+ years of DV experience in IP/SS/SOC/Post silicon DV with a Bachelor or Master’s degree in EE/ECE/CS or related specializations

Skills:

• Strong people management skills along with experience in leading DV projects

• First pass success silicon success enablement by working closely with team members as well as various cross functional teams

• Experience in one or more of 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/CPF/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.

• Work experience in a C-based environment with complex ARM/DSP multi-processor systems, including power-aware simulations, is a significant plus.

• Strong understanding of digital design fundamentals, computer organization and architectures, and bus protocols.

• Excellent Analytical, debugging skills with Verilog/VHDL designs.

• Good problem-solving skills.

• Experience with Cadence tools (Xcelium/vManager/Formal JG applications/safety simulator) or similar tools/DV flows.

• Proficiency in AMS, CDC digital verification, formal verification, and post-silicon verification, along with familiarity with functional safety and cybersecurity processes, would be advantageous.

• Effective communication skills to interact seamlessly with all stakeholders.

• Must be highly focused and committed to achieving project goals.

• Ability to quickly ramp up on new systems and processes while maintaining the time management skills necessary for on-time delivery.
