We are headquartered in the heart of California’s Silicon Valley, with R&D centers and offices in Taiwan, China, Vancouver and Toronto, Canada, and Haifa, Israel. 

We are looking for Senior Design Verification Engineers with proven experience in working on industry standard protocols such as PCIe/CXL/DDR/Ethernet. Using your coding and protocol expertise, you will contribute to the functional verification of the designs from coming up with block level and system level verification plan to writing test sequences, test execution, collecting and closing coverage. You will work with cross functional teams to come up with emulation plan to validate system level test cases.

Basic qualifications

  • Strong academic and technical background in electrical engineering. At minimum, a Bachelor’s in EE is required and Masters degree preferred.
  • ≥5 years’ experience supporting or developing complex SoC/silicon products for Server, Storage, and/or Networking applications.
  • Professional attitude with the ability to prioritize a dynamic list of multiple tasks, to plan and prepare for customer meetings in advance, and to work with minimal guidance and supervision.

  • Entrepreneurial, open-minded behavior and can-do attitude. Think and act fast with the customer in mind!
  • Authorized to work in the US and start immediately.

Required Experience

  • Experience with interpreting PCIe/CXL standard protocol specifications to come up with verification plan and execute them in simulation and emulation environments.
  • Must be able to work independently to develop test-plans, and related test-sequences in UVM to generate stimuli and work collaboratively with RTL designers to debug failures.
  • Develop user-controlled random constraints in transaction-based verification methodology. Experience writing assertions, cover properties and analyzing coverage data.
  • Must have prior experience using Verification IPs from 3rd party vendors for PCIe/CXL (with focus on Gen3 or above).
  • Develop VIP abstraction layers for sequences to simplify and scale verification deployments.
  • Currently based locally or open to relocation.

Preferred Experience

  • Physical Layer, Link Layer and Transaction Layer verification expertise in PCIe /CXL protocol.
  • Experience with compliance at the physical and transaction layers for PCIe/CXL endpoints or root ports.
  • Experience in analyzing performance metrics of CXL/PCIe.
  • Experience in system level verification for PCIe/CXL.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
  • The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
  • Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
  • We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
  • We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
  • From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
  • We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
  • If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
  • EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
