Senior SoC Design Verification Engineer

As a Senior SoC Design Verification Engineer , you will lead verification efforts for complex system-on-chip (SoC) designs that enable Intel's next generation of client computing and AI technologies. You will drive verification strategy, architecture, methodology development, and execution across block, subsystem, and SoC-level verification environments. Working closely with architects, RTL designers, security engineers, and validation teams, you will help ensure industry-leading quality, functionality, security, and performance of Intel silicon products. In this highly visible role, you will influence verification methodologies, mentor engineers, and contribute to the continuous improvement of Intel's verification practices while helping deliver innovative products to market. What You’ll Do Key responsibilities will include but not limited to: Perform functional logic verification of integrated SoCs to ensure designs meet specifications. Define and develop scalable, reusable block, subsystem, and SoC verification plans, test benches, and verification environments. Execute verification plans using emulation and system simulation models to analyze power, performance, and functionality. Identify, replicate, root cause, and debug issues in the pre-silicon environment, implementing corrective measures to resolve failing tests. Collaborate with SoC architects, microarchitects, RTL developers, post-silicon teams, and physical design teams to enhance verification methodologies.  Develop and execute security-focused test plans to ensure security coverage during regression and debug testing. Maintain and improve existing functional verification infrastructure and methodologies for future products. Incorporate learning from post-silicon validation to identify gaps and update test plans to improve coverage for subsequent projects. Document test plans and conduct technical reviews with design and architecture teams. Behavioral Traits We Are Looking For Strong technical leadership and the ability to influence verification strategy and methodology. Demonstrated ownership with a proven track record of driving complex technical issues to resolution. Excellent problem-solving, analytical thinking, and root-cause debugging skills. Strong collaboration and partnership skills across globally distributed and cross-functional teams. Effective written and verbal communication skills with the ability to explain complex technical concepts clearly. Passion for innovation, continuous improvement, and technical excellence. Commitment to mentoring and developing engineers while fostering a collaborative team environment Intel invests in our people and offers a complete and competitive package of benefits employees and their families through every stage of life.   See  Intel Benefits  for more details.
