Senior Pre-Silicon Verification Engineer

Job title: Senior Pre-Silicon Verification Engineer

About the Role Intel's Central Engineering Group is seeking a Senior Pre-Silicon Verification Engineer specializing in mixed-signal verification to ensure analog and digital designs meet specification requirements before fabrication. This role focuses on developing verification strategies for digital and mixed-signal IP blocks, creating advanced behavioral models, and executing verification plans that validate functional, performance, and power requirements across Intel's semiconductor designs.

What You'll Do

• Mixed-Signal Verification & Modeling: Perform functional verification of digital and mixed-signal logic components, including analog behavioral modeling and advanced verification techniques (UVM, real number modeling, AMS simulation). Create verification environments that accurately model analog-digital interactions and validate designs across process, voltage, and temperature (PVT) variations.
• Verification Planning & Environment Development: Develop comprehensive IP verification plans, test benches, and scalable verification environments for mixed-signal microarchitecture specifications. Build verification frameworks supporting regression testing, continuous integration, and both digital and analog verification flows.
• System Simulation & Debug: Execute verification plans, analyze power/timing/performance metrics, and conduct system-level simulations and corner case analysis. Replicate, root cause, and debug complex issues in the pre-silicon environment, implementing corrective measures to resolve failing tests.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration & Process Improvement: Collaborate with digital and analog architects, RTL developers, and physical design teams to meet functional, performance, and power goals. Document test plans, drive technical reviews, and maintain/improve verification infrastructure and methodology while ensuring smooth pre-silicon to post-silicon correlation.

What We're Looking For

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or in a STEM related field of study.
• 5+ years of experience in digital design.
• Experience with verification methodologies and tools appropriate for digital and mixed-signal design.

Nice to Have

• Experience with analog behavioral modeling and AMS simulation.
• Experience building verification environments and CI pipelines.
• Cross-functional collaboration experience in hardware teams.
