Principal/Lead AMS Verification Engineer

An opportunity has arisen for an experienced AMS Verification Engineer to join a successful design centre in the popular and scenic city of Edinburgh, working alongside some of the worlds leading engineers in Analog/Mixed Signal IC design.

In this role you will be working at a Lead/Principal level for Chip-level Advanced Mixed Signal (AMS) Verification of primarily power management devices. The role will include integration of Analog, Digital and Mixed-Signal IP blocks at top-level.

Other tasks will include:

• Verification of mixed-mode top-level designs
• Modelling of Analog and Mixed-Signal circuits
• Planning and coordination of AMS Verification tasks
• Top-level design AMS configuration creation
• Support and maintenance of Analog core blocks such as oscillators, references
• Support of Analog block level design engineers with AMS setup and simulations
• Lab evaluation and support for circuit blocks/whole ICs
• Support DFT strategy and Verification
• Support test development and ramp to production
• Instigate regular peer reviews with Analog design engineers.
• Mentor Verification team and provide technical support for Verification activities

The successful applicant will have 8-10 years experience in advanced Verification methodologies, owning the verification of complex digital and mixed signal designs and will have experience in some or all of the following:

• Modelling languages such as Verilog or VHDL RTL Coding and experience with UNIX shell Perl and TCL scripting
• System Verilog for verification using advanced verification methodologies (preferably UVM or similar such as Specman-e, OVM, SystemC, etc.)
• Assertion based verification and Formal verification
• Expert in constrained random verification and metric driven verification
• Expert in simulation and regressions tools e.g. Cadence Incisive, vManager, IMC
• Familiar with either Verilog or VHDL RTL coding and ASIC design methodology
• Familiar with behavioral modelling of analog blocks
• Proven experience in writing verification plans and test bench development, simulation and debugging

Excellent written and spoken English communication skills are essential along with the ability to interact with customers. An attitude of self-organisation and independence is required to ensure that project timescales are met.
