Senior Mixed-Signal Design Verification Manager
Experience Level: Management
Job Type: Regular
Travel: 10% or less, domestic or international
Role Summary
Lead and develop a team of verification engineers responsible for top-level design verification of mixed-signal and power-management integrated circuits (ICs). Drive verification strategy, technical excellence, automation, and collaboration across design and test teams to deliver high-quality, reliable semiconductor products.
Key Responsibilities
- Manage, mentor, and grow verification engineers across experience levels.
- Define technical direction and verification strategies.
- Lead customer-focused verification for motor drivers, power-loss protection, point-of-load, and battery-management ICs.
- Develop and execute metric-driven verification plans based on functional, performance, and test specifications.
- Create constrained-random tests and automated checkers using UVM.
- Develop accurate real-number models (RNM) and Verilog-AMS models for top-level simulations.
- Collaborate with design teams to debug and resolve verification issues.
- Partner with design and test teams to improve first-pass silicon testability.
- Improve verification methodologies using industry best practices.
- Automate verification workflows and repetitive tasks.
Required Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field, emphasizing mixed-signal design and verification.
- 15+ years of relevant experience, or equivalent advanced education and experience, in analog/mixed-signal design or verification of analog and power-management ICs.
- Experience managing a team or serving as a functional team lead.
- Hands-on expertise in UVM, analog and digital design fundamentals, and power-management systems.
- Strong problem-solving, debugging, communication, and collaboration skills.
- Expertise in mixed-signal simulation, including SPICE/Spectre, event-based simulators, co-simulation environments, simulation debugging, and silicon debugging.
Preferred Qualifications
- Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field.
- Experience with top-down design methodology.
- Proficiency in shell scripting or Python.
- Familiarity with SV-UDN/EENET modeling techniques.
- Experience with GUI-based and command-line simulation workflows.
- Proficiency in SystemVerilog assertions and functional coverage.
- Understanding of AI integration into verification workflows.
