Design Verification Engineer

Job Details:

Job Description: 

Intel is seeking a Design Verification Engineer for the Silicon Chassis team. In this role, you will contribute to verification of next-generation interconnect and chassis IPs that scale across multiple product families. You will work closely with senior engineers to build and execute robust verification plans, develop high-quality reusable environments, and help deliver first-pass silicon success through strong design verification practices. This role requires strong programming and algorithmic problem-solving skills, hands-on verification development, and willingness to work across traditional discipline boundaries. AI-assisted workflows are part of everyday development here.

Responsibilities
- Develop and execute verification plans and testbenches for interconnect and chassis IP/features at IP and subsystem level
- Build reusable verification components, checkers, constrained-random tests, and debug infrastructure to improve coverage and productivity
- Work with architecture, design, and software teams on spec reviews, feature clarification, bug triage, and closure; contribute outside strict DV boundaries when needed
- Analyze simulation failures, root-cause issues quickly, and drive fixes to closure with clear technical communication
- Contribute to functional coverage planning, coverage closure, and quality signoff under guidance of technical leads
- Contribute to both simulation and formal verification efforts; continuously improve verification automation, regression quality, and development efficiency

You should also demonstrate: Proven ability to write clean, reusable, and maintainable verification code and automation scripts, and to collaborate effectively across architecture, design, and software teams

Qualifications:

Minimum Qualifications
- BS/MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field, with 3+ years of relevant experience in design verification
- Programming fundamentals and algorithmic problem-solving skills, with demonstrated hands-on coding experience in SystemVerilog, C/C++, and Python
- Foundation in simulation-based verification methodologies UVM/ABV, with exposure to formal verification concepts; testbench development, debugging, and coverage-driven verification
- Hands-on experience using AI-assisted development tools as part of daily workflow for coding, debugging, and test development

Preferred Qualifications
- Exposure to interconnects and bus protocols for example AMBA AXI/ACE/CHI, PCIe, CXL, UCIe
- Understanding of cache coherency and memory consistency models
- Experience with external interfaces and system integration debug
- Experience with formal verification tools (JasperGold, VC Formal, or similar) and emulation or FPGA-based verification
- Exposure to RTL concepts, physical design, or CAD tool flows
- Prior work with system IPs such as MMUs SMMU or IOMMU and interrupt controllers
