Design Verification Engineer - Sensing

Change the world. Love your job.
Texas Instruments is seeking Design Verification Engineer. In this position, you will be working on advanced mixed-signal sensor circuits using state-of-the art process technology, as well as be involved in the digital and AMS verification of high-performance digital circuits interfacing to leading edge analog circuitry as part of an overall system.

In this role, your responsibilities will include the following.

• Develop detailed Verification/Test plans using specifications to cover all the digital/analog functionality/features of a mixed-signal chip for our next generation designs.
• Develop SystemVerilog chip-level testcases based on the verification plan.
• Simulation, Testcase debug and Verification closure for the digital/analog functionality of Mixed-signal chips, at chip-level in digital and AMS environment.
• Finding design bugs with break-the-design mindset and ensuring design is bug-free and robust.
• Develop SystemVerilog based behavioral models for the analog blocks and integrate them in the chip-level verification environment.
• Running regressions and DV closure activities.
• Work closely with design and systems teams to review/close spec gaps and design bugs, as they arise.
• Design for testability using ad-hoc, Full scan, IDDQ, VBOX, ATPG, BIST
• Drive documentation, reviews and verification flow improvement strategies.
• Be proactive in risk assessment and drive solutions to mitigate them.

Minimum requirements:

• Masters degree in Electrical Engineering or related field.
• 3+ years of related experience.
• Strong hands on working experience in Digital/AMS verification for Mixed-signal chips.
• Strong programming skills using SystemVerilog in verification.
• Robust in verification approach and strong in fundamentals of DV flows and concepts.
• SystemVerilog and class-based verification knowledge.

Preferred qualifications:

• Experience in writing an exhaustive verification plan from the specs.
• Experience in chip-level testcases in SystemVerilog.
• Experience in metric-based Verification closure using Code and Functional coverage.
• Experience in random/constrained random verification.
• Experience with Cadence simulation and debug tools.
• Experience with UART, SPI, I2C communication protocols.
• Good in debugging skills.
• Ability to work independently and self-driven/motivated person.
