Senior ASIC Design Verification Engineer - LPU

NVIDIA is hiring a Senior ASIC Design Verification Engineer to verify the design and implementation of its inference accelerator. The role sits on the ASIC Verification team and focuses on the high-performance processor elements that implement programmable compute and graphics functionality. It is a fit for an engineer with at least eight years of relevant industry experience who has built block-level and SoC-level testbenches and wants to work on verification for GPU and AI hardware.

What you will do

• Verify the design and implementation of the inference accelerator as a member of the ASIC Verification team.
• Verify the ASIC design, architecture, reference models, and micro-architecture using advanced verification methodologies.
• Understand the design and implementation of your unit, define the verification scope, develop the verification infrastructure, and verify the correctness of the design.
• Work with architects, designers, and pre- and post-silicon verification teams to complete your tasks.
• Implement and optimize automated verification flows to improve productivity and efficiency.
• Keep up with trends and advancements in ASIC design verification and bring new techniques into the verification process.

What they are looking for

• Bachelor's degree in EE, CS, or CE (or equivalent experience) and 8+ years of relevant industry experience.
• Background building block-level and SoC-level testbenches, with strong debugging and analytical skills.
• Experience verifying with random stimulus, functional coverage, and assertion-based verification methodologies and tools.
• Expertise in SystemVerilog and Universal Verification Methodology (UVM).
• Experience with design and verification tools such as VCS, Verdi, or equivalent.
• Knowledge of the ASIC design flow, from specification to GDS.
• Knowledge of applying machine learning to ASIC verification flows.

Experience with UPF power verification is a plus. Experience with netlist and DFT verification is a plus. Perl, Python, and C/C++ programming experience is desirable.

Pay and benefits

The base salary range is CAD 155,000 to 205,000 for Level 4, and CAD 195,000 to 245,000 for Level 5. Your base salary will be determined based on your location, experience, and the pay of employees in similar positions. You will also be eligible for equity and benefits.
