Staff AMS Verification Engineer
On-siteBengaluru, Karnataka, India
Job Summary
Own the AMS verification strategy for PMIC blocks and full-chip designs by defining plans, coverage goals, and methodologies. Develop and maintain SystemVerilog/UVM-based environments, Real Number Models, and behavioral abstractions to simulate functional and corner-case scenarios. Verify PMIC functionality including LDOs, converters, oscillators, and protection features while debugging failures across analog, digital, and testbench domains. Collaborate with design teams to identify risks and drive improvements in automation and coverage closure. Mentor engineers and lead complex debugs involving analog-digital interactions to influence architecture and design decisions.
Required Qualifications
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical/Electronics Engineering, Microelectronics, or a related field
- Typically 8+ years of experience in semiconductor verification, with significant experience in AMS verification
- Strong understanding of analog and mixed-signal circuit fundamentals
- Hands-on experience with PMIC architecture and power-management circuits
- Strong programming/scripting skills in one or more of: SystemVerilog, Python, Perl, Tcl, C/C++
- Strong experience with SystemVerilog/UVM and constrained-random verification
- Experience with AMS simulation and SPICE-based verification
- Experience with Real Number Modeling (RNM) and/or behavioral modeling
- Experience with industry-standard EDA tools such as Cadence, Synopsys, or Siemens EDA simulation and verification environments
- Strong debugging and problem-solving skills
- Experience defining verification plans and driving coverage closure and sign-off
Desired Qualifications
- Experience verifying automotive, consumer, mobile, industrial, or server PMICs
- Knowledge of power-management architectures, including switching regulators and linear regulators
- Experience with AMS assertions, SVA, and functional safety concepts
- Knowledge of formal verification or hybrid analog/digital verification methodologies
- Experience developing reusable AMS verification IP and verification frameworks
- Experience with silicon bring-up, characterization, or correlation between simulation and silicon measurements
