Résumé du poste

Renesas Electronics Corporation is seeking an AMS Verification Engineer to lead digital verification across power, analog, and mixed-signal ICs. You will own verification architecture, methodology, execution, and sign-off at block and full-chip level, building scalable environments from specs and driving closure with multiple teams.

The role requires mentoring engineers, resolving ambiguous specs, and delivering evidence of meeting functional and product requirements before tape-out.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.
• 10+ years of AMS verification experience with SystemVerilog and UVM.
• Proven ownership of block-level and full-chip verification environments and sign-off for complex semiconductor products.
• Strong knowledge of functional verification, assertion-based verification, formal verification, regression frameworks, coverage closure, and debug methodologies.
• Experience verifying digital logic embedded in PMICs, power-management, automotive, audio, or other mixed-signal ICs.
• Good understanding of RTL, microarchitecture, clocks, resets, low-power states, register interfaces, and common serial interfaces (SPI, I2C, UART).
• Synthesis, STA, DFT, scan insertion, ATPG, and gate-level verification knowledge; collaboration across development flow.
• Scripting or automation using Python, TCL, Perl, shell, or similar languages.
• Proven ability to mentor engineers, establish verification methodology, and lead technical reviews without formal people-management authority.
• Self-driven, results-oriented, and able to deliver under tight schedules in a multisite and multicultural environment.

Responsabilités

• Own block-level and full-chip digital verification strategy for power, analog, and mixed-signal IC products.
• Develop verification plans from product and design specs, including feature extraction, test intent, coverage goals, assumptions, and sign-off criteria.
• Decompose complex functions into reusable verification components and scalable environments.
• Identify specification gaps and drive closure with architecture, analog/digital design, applications, and test teams.
• Design and develop SystemVerilog/UVM-based testbenches, agents, scoreboards, reference models, assertions, sequences, and coverage models.
• Set up verification flows from scratch where needed and own regression execution, triage, debug, and closure.
• Apply simulation, assertion-based verification, formal verification, and FPGA or emulation techniques where valuable.
• Verify digital behavior across reset, clock, power-state, fault, trim, communication, test-mode, and analog-interaction scenarios.
• Collaborate with analog and digital teams to define appropriate models and verify analog-digital interactions.
• Support DFT verification, scan and ATPG-related checks, production-test vector development, and test-mode verification.
• Support gate-level simulation, timing-aware verification, and post-layout verification as required.
• Contribute to silicon bring-up, device evaluation, root-cause analysis, and documented workarounds for device errata.
• Drive reusable verification methodology, automation, metrics, documentation, and review standards across projects.
• Mentor verification engineers through reviews, debug support, and technical guidance.

• Own block-level and full-chip digital verification strategy for power,analog, and mixed-signal IC products.
• Develop verification plans from product and design specifications, including feature extraction, test intent, coverage goals, assumptions, and sign-off criteria.
• Decompose complex functions into reusable verification components and scalable environments.
• Identifyspecification gaps and drive closure with architecture,analogdesign, digital design, applications, and test teams.

Environment Development & Execution

• Design and developSystemVerilog/UVM-based testbenches, agents, scoreboards, reference models, assertions, sequences, and coverage models.
• Set up verification flows from scratch where needed and own regression execution, triage, debug, and closure.
• Apply simulation, assertion-based verification, formal verification, and FPGA or emulation techniques where they provide practical value.
• Verify digitalbehavioracross reset, clock, power-state, fault, trim, communication, test-mode, andanalog-interaction scenarios.

Mixed-Signal, DFT & Post-layout Support

• Collaborate withanalogand digital teams to defineappropriate modelsand verifyanalog-digital interactions at the required abstraction level.
• Support DFT verification, scan and ATPG-related checks, production-test vector development, and test-mode verification.
