Hiring: Design Verification Lead Company: Neurophos Location: Austin, TX Job Posted Time: 2026-09-17 00:57:16 Employment Type: Full-time Target Skills & Keywords : AI, ASIC, CI/CD, FPGA, SOC, SystemVerilog About the job Experience: •8 to 15 years in design verification, including leading verification on a GPU-class or complex compute ASIC through tapeout. •15 years in design verification, including leading verification on a GPU-class or complex compute ASIC through tapeout. Required Skills: •Own verification methodology and testbench architecture, built on UVM with a strong emphasis on AI driven flows. •Build the verification plan across levels: module-level simulation, SoC integration, interface checks, top-level IO, and how each feeds the validation plan. •Specify, evaluate and Integrate third party VIP into the environment •Own gate-level simulation with SDF-annotated timing as part of tapeout closure. •Extend our FPGA-based verification harness so modules can be exercised with real code, quickly, without burning simulator licenses. •Stand up and operate our emulation environment, including provisioning and execution on cloud-hosted infrastructure. •Use AI tooling to generate and iterate testbenches and assertions, optimizing based on coverage feedback, and iterating to ensure high quality verification. •Build and lead the verification team, partnering with system architecture, RTL design, physical design, DFT and validation. Qualifications: •Deep UVM and SystemVerilog expertise, including ownership of testbench architecture, formal verification, coverage analysis and CI/CD methodology. •Gate-level simulation experience. You know what gate sim costs you in visibility and where it belongs in a tapeout schedule. •Verification experience on a chip with many independently developed blocks and analog components, including integration of analog models. •Comfort standing up a verification environment end to end, including emulation infrastructure. •Breadth across the flow, from module-level simulation through SoC integration and into validation planning.
