Senior Hardware Verification Engineer - SoC/IP Expert

leading-edge; Islamabad; On-site; PKR 2,400,000 - 4,200,000; Full time

Job summary

leading-edge seeks a Hardware Verification Engineer with hands-on IP and SoC verification experience, including UVM environments, VIPs, and coverage-driven regression across digital IPs and subsystems.

The role involves leading verification of pipelines and peripherals such as UART, I3C, I2C, Ethernet, PCIe, and chiplet communications, while developing reusable verification environments and regression setups.

Qualifications

• Hands-on verification of IP and SoC-level designs.
• Experience building verification environments and testbenches.
• Proficiency with VIPs, simulators, and coverage-driven flows.

Responsibilities

• Lead verification of Match-Action Pipeline and UART/IPs with staged customer deliveries.
• Drive bring-up, test planning, and execution for UART, I3C, I2C, and Ethernet peripherals.
• Develop reusable APB protocol verification environments.
• Integrate commercial Ethernet VIPs at block and chip levels (800G/400G/100G).
• Create and execute UVM sequences for PCIe/CXL traffic generation and validation.
• Configure and verify I3C chiplet and HUB chiplet communications with processor cores.
• Validate NIC400 infrastructure and system address mapping for SoC flows.
• Perform CSR verification for Ethernet chiplets.
• Drive coverage closure (line, toggle, FSM) and establish regression setups.
• Automate Register Abstraction Layer (RAL) flows for efficient verification.
