**Company**:QUALCOMM SEMICONDUCTORES Y SISTEMAS AVANZADOS DE BAJA CALIFORNIA
**Job Area**:Engineering Group, Engineering Group > ASICS Engineering
**General Summary**:
Job Overview
Key Responsibilities - Pre-Si and Post-Si Verification:
- Develop and execute verification plans for SoC, subsystem, and IP-level features across pre-silicon and post-silicon phases.
- Build, enhance, and maintain SystemVerilog/UVM, C/C++, processor-based, emulation, and acceleration verification environments.
- Create directed, constrained-random, stress, performance, power, and system-level test scenarios to validate architecture and real-use-case behavior.
- Develop assertions, functional coverage models, checkers, scoreboards, and signoff metrics for verification closure.
- Debug RTL, testbench, emulation, firmware, ATE/vector, and silicon bring-up issues using logs, waveforms, traces, and hardware debug data.
- Support post-silicon validation, silicon characterization, ATE pattern debug, failure triage, and correlation between simulation, emulation, and silicon results.
- Drive coverage closure, regression health, bug tracking, and verification signoff using functional, code, assertion, and scenario coverage metrics.
- Participate in architecture, micro-architecture, design, validation, and test-plan reviews to ensure verification and bring-up requirements are captured early.
- Verify complex SoC features including multi-core CPU systems, cache coherency and interconnect fabrics, DDR/HBM memory subsystems, PCIe/CXL/Ethernet/high-speed interfaces, security, performance, and power-management features.
- For Engineer level: execute assigned verification tasks, develop tests and checkers, debug failures, maintain regressions, and contribute to coverage and bring-up activities.
- For Senior Engineer level:
own feature/subsystem verification from plan to closure, lead debug across teams, mentor engineers, identify schedule and quality risks, and drive methodology/automation improvements.
- Contribute to reusable verification components, scripting automation, AI-assisted verification workflows, and continuous improvement of pre-silicon and post-silicon validation processes.
**Minimum Qualifications**:
- Bachelor's degree in Science, Engineering, or related field.
Minimum Qualifications
- Bachelor's or master's degree in electrical engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field.
- Engineer: typically 2+ years of relevant design verification, validation, or SoC debug experience.
- Sr.
Engineer: typically 4+ years of relevant experience with demonstrated ownership of complex verification, validation, or silicon bring-up deliverables.
- Strong knowledge of System Verilog, UVM, C/C++, assertion-based verification, coverage-driven verification, and system-level use-case verification.
- Experience developing or using verification environments from architecture/specification through signoff, including regression, coverage, and debug flows.
- Understanding of post-silicon validation concepts such as bring-up, ATE/vector debug, silicon failure triage, hardware/software interaction, or correlation with pre-silicon results.
- Strong understanding of computer architecture, digital design fundamentals, and SoC integration concepts.
- Excellent communication, collaboration, ownership, and problem-solving skills.
Preferred Qualifications *
- Experience with one or more of the following pre-silicon or post-silicon domains:
- CPU, subsystem, or full-chip SoC verification
- Cache coherency protocols such as ACE, CHI, or CXL
- DDR, LPDDR, or HBM memory subsystems
- PCIe, CXL, Ethernet, networking, or high-speed interface verification
- AI/ML accelerator, security, RAS, performance, or power feature verification
- Post-silicon bring-up, silicon validation, ATE pattern debug, shmoo/debug analysis, or silicon failure triage
- Experience with emulation/acceleration platforms such as Veloce, Palladium, or ZeBu, and correlation between simulation, emulation, and silicon results.
- Silicon validation (Debug using Trace32) experience is preferred
- Experience with Portable Stimulus, formal verification, power-aware verification, firmware-driven validation, or hardware/software co-verification.
- Proficiency in Python, Perl, shell scripting, or other automation languages for regression, debug, data analysis, and productivity improvements.
