We bring together technologies and industries, alongside the contributions of diverse individuals who are empowered by an intentional workplace culture, to solve problems better and faster.

Role Summary

We are looking for an experienced DV / DFx Verification Engineer to work on verification of Design-for-Test (DFT) and Design-for-Debug (DFD) features for complex AMD SoCs. The engineer will be responsible for developing verification plans, building SystemVerilog/UVM-based environments, creating tests, debugging regressions and driving coverage closure across IP, subsystem and SoC levels.

Key Responsibilities

Develop and execute DFx verification test plans based on architecture and design specifications.
Verify DFx features at IP, subsystem and SoC levels .
Develop SystemVerilog/UVM testbenches, sequences, checkers, scoreboards, monitors and coverage models .
Develop directed and constrained-random tests for DFx features.
Verify DFT/DFx features including:
JTAG / IEEE 1149.x
IEEE 1500 / 1687
Scan and ATPG
MBIST / LBIST
Boundary Scan
Test compression
Fuse / repair
Clocks and resets
On-chip debug / trace / observability
Execute simulation and regression environments and analyze failures to identify RTL, testbench or design issues .
Perform root-cause analysis and work closely with RTL, DFT, architecture and firmware teams to resolve issues.
Develop and maintain verification infrastructure, BFMs, agents and reusable verification components.
Analyze functional and code coverage , identify verification gaps and drive coverage closure.
Support gate-level and scan-inserted simulations where required.
Work with emulation/FPGA platforms to extend DFx verification.
Collaborate with post-silicon and product engineering teams for silicon bring-up, pattern debug and failure correlation .
Develop automation and regression scripts using Python / Perl / Tcl / Shell / Make .
Participate in design and architecture reviews and provide DFx verification feedback.

Mandatory Skills

Strong hands-on experience in ASIC/SoC Design Verification .
Strong SystemVerilog knowledge.
Experience with UVM or equivalent verification methodology .
Hands-on experience with one or more DFx/DFT areas such as:
JTAG
Scan / ATPG
MBIST / LBIST
IEEE 1500 / 1687
Boundary Scan
Test compression
Fuse / repair
Debug / trace
Strong debugging and root-cause analysis skills.
Experience with simulation/debug tools such as VCS, Verdi or equivalent .
Good understanding of RTL, clocks, resets, CDC and SoC architecture .
Strong scripting experience in Python, Perl, Tcl, Shell or Ruby .
Experience with functional/code coverage and verification closure.

Good to Have

Experience with AMD/CPU/GPU/Server SoC architecture .
Experience with emulation or FPGA prototyping .
Knowledge of DFT/ATPG tools such as Tessent .
Experience with gate-level simulation and SDF.
Experience with silicon bring-up and post-silicon debug.
Knowledge of C/C++ and SystemVerilog DPI.
Exposure to formal verification, lint and CDC methodologies.
Experience working with globally distributed engineering teams.

Education
