ASIC Verification Engineer
We are looking for an ASIC Verification Engineer who combines strong technical skills with pragmatic problem-solving, curiosity, and a drive to deliver on complex projects. Verification is integral to our design process. You’ll work across architecture, RTL design, software, implementation, and infrastructure, helping shape how we build and validate our platforms. Working closely with designers and trading teams, you’ll translate demanding real-world requirements into robust, thoroughly verified designs.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What You'll Do:
- Own verification environments from planning through sign-off. Translate architectural and system requirements into verification strategies, test plans, and measurable completion criteria for complex projects.
- Build scalable verification environments. Develop reusable testbenches, reference models, stimulus, scoreboards, and other verification components.
- Drive verification closure. Use coverage, assertions, regression results, assess risk, and build confidence in our designs.
- Solve challenging hardware and software problems. Collaborate across disciplines to isolate root causes, resolve spec ambiguities, and drive issues to closure.
- Make sound engineering trade-offs. Balance verification depth, development effort, and delivery timelines while delivering right-first-time silicon.
- Improve productivity. Develop automation, CI, regression infrastructure, and tooling that make verification faster, more reliable, and lower maintenance.
- Contribute beyond verification. Bring a verification perspective to architecture and design reviews.
Skills You’ll Need:
- At least 3 years of design verification experience, including work on complex ASIC/SoC projects.
- Experience creating and executing verification plans, building verification environments, and driving metric-based sign-off.
- Strong programming and HDL development skills, including SystemVerilog and Python, with proficiency in C/C++.
- A solid understanding of digital design principles and the ability to reason about hardware behavior, corner cases, and trade-offs.
- Strong debugging skills across hardware and software, with a systematic approach to diagnosing complex failures.
- The ability to turn high-level or evolving requirements into clear, testable specifications.
- A collaborative and reliable approach, clear communication, accountability for your deliverables, and ability to give and take constructive criticism.
- A degree in electrical or electronic engineering, computer science, mathematics, physics, or a related discipline.
