Full Description

Are you ready to be at the forefront of innovation and efficiency? As a Senior Staff Engineer Digital Functional Verification, you will ensure the most efficient development of Infineon products with right quality, delivered with first time success. You will play a crucial role in Infineon's value creation chain, contributing directly to product development and focusing on efficient execution, maintenance, and continuous improvement.

Job Description As a Senior Staff Engineer Digital Functional Verification, you will develop UVM-based verification environments, implement test scenarios using System Verilog, and ensure low-power verification using UPF. By applying Formal Verification, driving knowledge exchange, and collaborating with global and cross-disciplinary teams, you will contribute to the development of innovative and high-quality products.

In your new role you will

  • Be in continuous and intensive contact with our development sites worldwide
  • Advise and support the experts from our business units in verification projects
  • Drive the internal exchange of know-how and experience at Infineon
  • Work out optimization opportunities in verification methodology and verification coverage through integrating the results achieved into Infineon's design system and supporting their implementation in the development of new products
  • Collaborate with other disciplines (e.g. Application Engineering) to define the verification methodology and the verification plan
  • Design and develop the verification environment for ICs using the "Universal Verification Methodology" (UVM)
  • Independently identify sub-modules that are particularly suitable for Formal Verification and apply this methodology
  • Implement test scenarios using System Verilog and verify functionality using a Constrained Random Approach
  • Use the Unified Power Format (UPF) to verify the low-power aspects of our designs

Your Profile You are a detail-oriented and solution-driven professional with strong problem-solving skills and a commitment to high-quality outcomes. With excellent communication abilities, you thrive in dynamic, cross-functional teams, fostering collaboration and driving continuous improvement.

You are best equipped for this task if you have

  • A degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science or similar
  • At least 7 years of professional experience in Metric Driven Verification (digital & mixed signal) and Formal Verification
  • Experience with microcontroller-based ICs and ideally with security and safety requirements
  • Experience with Ethernet Protocol (bridge, PHY, MACs…)
  • Experience in the creation and dissemination of methods in functional verification
  • An excellent understanding of UVM and UPF along with strong practical skills in their application
  • Some experience in technical leadership and project management
  • knowledge of firmware and RTL design (VHDL)
  • C modeling and Cadence verification software is a plus
  • Please send us your CV in English
