Technology, Data & Digital · Software & Web Development · Software Engineering

In short

Synopsys seeks a Senior Staff Interface IP Verification Engineer in Bengaluru, India, to own the end-to-end verification of Interface IP blocks like PCIe, CXL, DDR, and Ethernet. This role requires deep expertise in SystemVerilog and UVM, a strong understanding of protocol specifications, and the ability to lead verification strategies and mentor junior engineers.

Responsibilities

  • Own end-to-end verification of Interface IP blocks including PCIe, CXL, DDR, and Ethernet, from architecture review through silicon signoff
  • Build and evolve UVM-based verification environments that are reusable across product lines and scalable for future protocol generations
  • Define verification strategies and test plans that account for protocol compliance, performance corner cases, and system-level integration scenarios
  • Develop constrained-random, coverage-driven test scenarios using SystemVerilog and UVM, targeting functional coverage closure and signoff quality
  • Debug complex multi-layer issues spanning RTL logic, protocol state machines, timing, and testbench infrastructure using VCS or equivalent simulators
  • Collaborate with architecture, design, firmware, and systems teams to identify and resolve issues early in the development cycle
  • Mentor verification engineers on UVM methodology, coverage analysis, debugging techniques, and verification best practices

Requirements

  • Bachelor's or Master's in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering with 8+ years of hands-on ASIC or SoC verification experience
  • Deep expertise in SystemVerilog and UVM methodology, with a track record of building scalable verification environments from the ground up
  • Strong protocol knowledge in at least one of PCIe, CXL, DDR, or Ethernet, with the ability to read specs and translate them into verification requirements
  • Proven experience developing constrained-random and coverage-driven verification solutions that achieve functional signoff
  • Solid debugging skills across RTL, verification infrastructure, and protocol compliance, with experience using industry-standard simulators like VCS or ModelSim

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience with verification IP development, assertion-based verification, or formal methods is a strong plus
  • Knowledge of modern SoC architectures and high-speed communication interfaces is a plus

Benefits

  • Comprehensive medical and healthcare plans that work for you and your family.
  • In addition to company holidays, we have ETO and FTO Programs.
  • Maternity and paternity leave, parenting resources, adoption and surrogacy assistance, and more.
  • Purchase Synopsys common stock at a 15% discount, with a 24 month look-back.
  • Save for your future with our retirement plans that vary by region and country.
  • Competitive salaries.
