About the Job

Requirements

  • A Master's or PhD university degree in Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent.
  • At least eight years of proven professional experience in digital design and verification.
  • SystemVerilog and Universal Verification Methodology (UVM) methodology training certifications from electronic design automation vendors.
  • Familiarity with application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) and system-on-chip (SoC) design flow and process.
  • Advanced knowledge of Verilog and SystemVerilog languages; VHDL is a plus.
  • Proven experience in testbench design and development using UVM methodology.
  • High proficiency in metric-driven verification concepts, functional coverage, and code coverage.
  • High proficiency in directed and constrained-random methodologies.
  • Advanced knowledge of formal verification methodologies and assertions.
  • Proficiency with bash/tcsh, Tcl, Python, and C for test-case development.
  • Good experience with centralized version control systems such as SVN, Git, or ClearCase.
  • Very good spoken and written English skills.
  • A conscious and reliable approach to work, as the role may involve security-related tasks and security certifications.

Responsibilities

  • Take ownership of verification for one or more team-owned submodules, including verification IPs and testbenches at different integration levels.
  • Review, understand, and discuss subsystem and submodule requirements and design specifications at each functional or technology increment.
  • Collaborate with the subsystem architect and discipline leads to define an integrated verification strategy, and collaborate with the digital verification team to break it down into activities and tasks while supporting planning through effort and priority identification.
  • Define and document metrics and methodologies for assessing verification campaign completion, and support specifications for testbench components.
  • Track and document verification activity against the adopted process and requirements; create or update verification specifications and reports at each project phase review.
  • Interact with peers, hardware and software designers, and system engineers to analyze and resolve issues, bugs, and support requests.
  • Contribute to maintaining and documenting the digital verification process and to methodology updates or improvements across the digital verification team.
  • Stay current with verification methodologies and tools through courses, seminars, webinars, and literature.

Desired Qualifications

  • VHDL knowledge.

About the Company

NXP Semiconductors

Automotive semiconductors and secure embedded solutions

NXP Semiconductors designs and sells semiconductor chips for vehicles and other devices. Its products include automotive-grade microcontrollers and other ICs used in engines, infotainment, safety systems, and networked car architectures. These chips process data, run software, and enable features such as advanced driver assistance and vehicle connectivity, often with strong security and real-time performance. Unlike some peers, NXP became an independent company after Philips spun off its semiconductor unit in 2006 and later merged with Freescale in 2015, building a focused strength in automotive semiconductors and microcontrollers. This gives it a clear niche in the market and the goal of growing as a standalone leader in smarter, connected vehicles and related technologies.
