  * Design, code, and debug testbenches, test cases, and functional coverage models to validate complex IP functionalities.
  * Perform functional coverage analysis and manage regression testing to achieve and maintain required quality metrics.
  * Collaborate closely with RTL designers and global verification teams to resolve issues and drive verification closure.
  * Leverage scripting (Perl, TCL, Python) to automate verification flows, streamline processes, and enhance productivity.
  * Contribute to the development and refinement of verification methodologies, including VIP development and formal verification approaches.
  
  The Impact You Will Have:
  * Ensure the delivery of high-quality, robust IP cores that power critical applications in commercial, enterprise, and automotive markets.
  * Drive innovation in verification methodologies, setting new standards for efficiency and coverage.
  * Enhance time-to-market by identifying and resolving design and verification issues early in the development cycle.
  * Strengthen Synopsys’ reputation as a leader in silicon IP and verification through technical excellence and customer focus.
  * Mentor and support junior engineers, fostering a culture of learning and continuous improvement.
  * Contribute to the success of global, multi-site R&D teams by providing expertise and driving cross-functional collaboration.
  
  What You’ll Need:
  * BSEE with 5+ years or MSEE with 3+ years of relevant experience in ASIC or IP verification.
  * Expertise in developing HVL (System Verilog)-based verification environments and testbenches.
  * Strong hands-on experience with industry-standard simulators (VCS, NC, MTI) and debugging tools.
  * Proficiency in verification methodologies such as UVM, OVM, or VMM; exposure to formal verification is highly desirable.
  * Solid understanding of protocols such as MIPI-I3C/UFS/Unipro, AMBA, SD/eMMC, Ethernet, DDR, PCIe, USB.
  * Familiarity with scripting languages (Perl, TCL, Python) and HDLs (Verilog); experience with VIP development is a plus.
  * Demonstrated ability to work with functional coverage-driven methodologies and quality metric goals.
  
  Who You Are:
  * Analytical thinker with strong problem-solving and debugging skills.
  * Excellent verbal and written communication abilities.
  * Team player who thrives in collaborative, multi-site environments.
  * Proactive, self-motivated, and able to take initiative on challenging projects.
  * Detail-oriented, quality-focused, and driven by a desire to excel.
  * Adaptable and eager to continuously learn and apply new technologies.
  
  The Team You’ll Be A Part Of:
  
  You will join the Solutions Group’s DesignWare IP Verification R&D team, a highly skilled and diverse group of engineers dedicated to delivering world-class IP cores for next-generation connectivity. The team operates in a collaborative, multi-site environment, leveraging global expertise to solve complex verification challenges.
