Austin, TX, United States ACL Digital Full time

We are looking for a Senior SoC Design Verification Engineer - responsible for developing the verification environment, testbench components, firmware-driven testing, and infrastructure for a next-generation mixed-signal SoC. The engineer will lead development of new BFMs, porting of existing testbench components, creating test suites, enabling automated regressions, and driving coverage closure across digital-analog interfaces, SPI flash flows, and new cross-chip communication protocols.

  • Testbench Architecture & Development
  • Upgrade and enhance the Digital Analog Model to support MSIC-specific analog array size, new DAC control features, and programming behavior.
  • Develop compile/load flows for Quad-SPI Flash using vendor models (e.g., Winbond), including make file updates and per-test case memory image generation.
  • Architect and implement the Controller BFM, enabling single/burst R/W transactions, protocol checking, and full integration into the verification environment.
  • Evaluate, develop, and BFM based on updated design requirements.
  • Update JTAG access modules to support expanded TAP chains, multi-TAP routing, and ARM DAP interactions.
  • Maintain and reuse / port UART capture/display modules for firmware printf/debug use-cases.
    Required Skills & Experience
    8-12 years of experience in SoC Verification with strong proficiency in:
  • Verilog-HDL
  • C test development at SoC level
  • SV Assertions
  • TCL/Python/Shell scripting
  • Experience with:
  • Protocol Knowledge (JTAG, SPI, UART, serial communication protocols and AMBA APB, AHB interconnect protocols)
  • Gate-level simulation & SDF flows
  • Coverage tools and methodologies (functional + code coverage)
  • Hands-on experience debugging complex SoC issues involving ARM subsystems.
    Preferred Qualifications
  • Prior work on mixed-signal or digital-analog interface verification.
  • Understanding of AHB/APB/AXI interconnects.
  • Exposure to version control like GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or similar.
