My client is looking for a Design Verification Engineer with specialized expertise in System-on-Chip (SoC) verification within the ASIC (Application-Specific Integrated Circuit) development process. Here's a detailed breakdown of the spec to clarify exactly what they are looking for: Key Points: o Design Verification Engineer (DV Engineer) for ASIC development. o Specific focus on presilicon verification rather than post-silicon verification. What They Do Not Want: o C programmers for post-silicon verification or Embedded systems development. o Candidates focused on general C programming without specialization in semiconductor verification. Primary Skills: o Strong expertise in C-based verification. o Specific experience with ARM processors at the System SoC level. o Candidates must be adept in C-based verification practices (not just familiarity). Additional Context: o The work involves semiconductor verification design. This means working on verifying the design of chips before they are fabricated (presilicon stage).
