Responsibilities
As a member of the verification team, you will:
- Develop and own verification plans for IP blocks based on architecture and build specifications
- Build and implement SystemVerilog/UVM-based verification environments, including testbenches, stimulus, and checkers
- Define functional and code coverage goals and drive coverage closure
- Debug RTL and verification issues, working closely with build and architecture teams to resolve problems
- Complete regression testing and analyze failures to root cause
- Support the advancement and refinement of verification methodologies and infrastructure
- Participate in building and verification reviews, providing feedback to improve build quality and verifiability
