Principal Engineer, Design Verification Engineering
Core
Lead design verification for mixed-signal power converter controllers from architecture through silicon bring-up, ensuring tape-out readiness and quality metrics.
Role type
Principal IC Design Verification Engineer (Power Controllers)
Builds
Industry-leading DC-DC converter controllers for datacenter and energy applications
Domain
Semiconductor / Power Management / Mixed-Signal IC Design
Required skills
SystemVerilog/UVM, constrained-random verification, self-checking testbenches, verification sign-off (coverage, assertions/SVA, LINT, CDC/RDC), formal/semi-formal techniques, AMS verification, behavioral modeling, regression automation, cross-functional leadership, mentoring
Preferred skills
Xcelium/VCS/Questa simulators, Python/Tcl scripting, AI tools for verification, integrated power management domain knowledge (buck/boost converters, control loops)
Technologies
