Job Description :
We are seeking an experienced Verification Engineer with strong expertise in System Verilog (SV), UVM methodology, and hands-on experience in PCIe (Gen4 / Gen5) verification. The ideal candidate should have worked on Root Complex, PCIe Controller verification and possess deep knowledge of high-speed protocols, functional verification, and test bench development.
Key Responsibilities :
- Develop and execute test plans for PCIe Gen4 / Gen5 Root Complex and Controller IP.
- Build, enhance, and maintain UVM-based verification environments in SystemVerilog.
- Create testbenches, sequences, monitors, scoreboards, and checkers for functional coverage.
- Perform coverage-driven verification (functional / code / branch / MC / DC) and debug failures using simulation tools.
- Collaborate with design and architecture teams to understand specifications and identify corner cases.
- Analyze protocol compliance and ensure design meets PCIe standard specifications.
- Run regressions, triage failures, and drive resolution in coordination with design teams.
- Provide technical guidance and mentor junior team members (if senior role).
Required Skills & Experience :
Strong knowledge of System Verilog, OOP concepts, and UVM methodology.Hands-on experience in PCIe Gen4 / Gen5 verification (must have worked on Root Complex and / or PCIe Controller).Experience in writing test benches, sequences, assertions, and checkers.Strong debugging skills using industry-standard simulators (e.g., VCS, Questa, Xcelium).Familiarity with protocol analyzers, traffic generators, and PCIe compliance testing.Solid understanding of verification concepts : functional coverage, constraint random testing, assertions (SVA).Good communication skills and ability to work in a collaborative environment.Nice to Have :
Exposure to other high-speed protocols (CXL, Ethernet, DDR, etc.).Experience with formal verification and emulation / prototyping platforms.Knowledge of Python / Perl / Tcl scripting for automation.Familiarity with SoC-level verification.Education :
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electronics / Electrical / Computer Engineering or equivalent.(ref : hirist.tech)
