It used to be that high-speed packet forwarding was performed in dedicated ASIC designs. These days we are looking to make those ASICs more general and programmable. Cisco Common ASIC Group is looking for a Senior ASIC Verification Engineer to drive existing projects and engage in new development of our next generation switching systems.
As part of the ASIC team, you will be developing the ASICs at the heart of each of these switch products. There are only a very few teams worldwide that implement such devices. Every time you access the Internet, chances are, your data's been through one of our switches.
Our group is responsible for working on the Silicon One family of chips, where we build some of the most complex ASIC chips using cutting-edge technologies and the latest industry tools and techniques. At Cisco, we are at the forefront of innovation in chip design, presenting our engineers with challenging tasks that foster professional growth and career development in this field
You are a talented, motivated ASIC verification engineer ready to contribute to the verification of very complex ASICs. You will have a Design Verification background, hands-on experience in System Verilog and UVM methodology, with in-depth knowledge of C++, scripting, as well as ASIC design and verification flow.
You’ll be part of Cisco Common ASIC Group, focusing on developing and upgrading various test benches and contributing to different aspects of verification infrastructure.
You will collaborate closely with the design team and the hardware team to verify the ASIC in simulation, in emulation and during ASIC bring up.
Creating block level test benches including components like drivers/monitors/sequences
Maintaining existing test benches for block level and/or cluster level
Upgrading test benches to accommodate new features
End-to-end verification of various design blocks
Developing test plans, cover points
Upgrading/updating configuration/reset sequences (APIs)
Collaboration with designers/verification engineers to perform cross-block verification
Writing tests, and debugging regressions
Contributing to top level verification
Be a part of emulation testing efforts
Completed degree in Electrical or Computer engineering and at least 5 years of experience in Design Verification
Proficient in System Verilog /Assertions and UVM
Proficient in functional coverage and constrained random design verification environments
Can develop a design verification testbench from scratch.
Scripting experience (Python, Perl, shell programming)
Knowledge of programming languages (C/C++).
Familiarity with code database tools like: Perforce/Git.
Experience with Formal Verification.
Experience with Emulation.
