Principle Verification Lead

Department: Cryo-CMOS

Location: Dublin

Employment Type: FullTime

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Principal Verification Lead to join our team. In this role, you will lead the verification of our Quantum SoC devices, defining and driving the verification strategy, ensuring robust coverage of functional requirements, and establishing a scalable verification methodology to support current development and future product generations.

Main Duties and Responsibilities

• Collaborate with architecture, hardware, software, and quantum teams to develop comprehensive verification plans, defining verification strategies, goals, and methodologies to ensure thorough coverage of functional requirements.

• Construct a suitable verification methodology for quantum SoC devices, using standard and custom verification methodologies, AI initiatives, tools, and best practices. The methodology will need to evolve in parallel with quantum SoC solutions.

• Design and implement Quantum SoC Verification environments and testbenches using industry-standard methodologies.

• Create, execute and maintain directed testcases and libraries to verify the functionality, performance, and robustness of Quantum SoC designs.

• Identify, isolate, and debug issues found during verification, leveraging simulation and debugging tools to root-cause failures and drive resolution with development and architecture teams.

• Demonstrate technical leadership by driving projects from start to finish, conducting code reviews, mentoring junior verification engineers, and building up an efficient verification team.

• Generate clear and concise documentation, reports, and regular presentations to communicate verification results, status, and recommendations to stakeholders and management.

Experience and Qualifications

Required

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.

• At least 12 years of experience in SoC verification, with a minimum of 5 years in a leadership role.

• Expertise in verification planning, methodology development, testbench development, and testcase development.

• Strong knowledge of industry-standard verification methodologies such as UVM and SystemVerilog.

• Excellent problem-solving, debugging, and analytical skills.

• Strong communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to work effectively with cross-functional teams.

• Self-motivated and proactive, with the ability to work independently and manage multiple projects simultaneously.

Desired

• Experience with quantum computing and related technologies

• Experience with emulation and system simulation models

• Experience with post-silicon validation and feedback loops
