Full Description

Navii is an AI recruiter, running this search on behalf of Proxelera.

HERE'S HOW IT WORKS Rather than your resume sitting in a queue, you have a conversation with Navii about your experience and what you want next. What you say reaches Proxelera's hiring team in your own words. It is a required step, and there is nothing to schedule.

ABOUT PROXELERA Proxelera builds chip, systems, and software solutions for global leaders—and right now we need two strong verification engineers to keep engineering output moving without slip-ups. If you’ve spent years turning complex specs into coverage-driven, assertion-rich verification that actually finds bugs (and helps teams ship faster), this is your seat.

The Work

  • Own functional verification for complex ASIC/System-on-Chip designs, end-to-end from early verification planning through tape-out readiness.

  • Build and maintain functional verification environments using SystemVerilog + UVM.

  • Drive coverage-driven verification using functional coverage, SVA assertions, and coverage closure strategies.

  • Debug hard failures by triaging root cause across stimulus, DUT behavior, and environment issues.

  • Use industry-standard simulators such as Questa or VCS to reproduce issues, validate fixes, and ensure verification completeness.

What You’ll Need (Must-Haves)

  • 8–10 years of hands-on experience in functional verification.

  • Strong SystemVerilog and UVM expertise.

  • Experience with functional coverage, assertions (SVA), and coverage-driven verification.

  • Strong debugging and problem-solving skills in verification projects.

  • Experience with Questa or VCS.

  • Evidence of complete full-chip design-cycle experience—from design concept/early verification planning through tape-out handling of complex verification assignments.

  • Full-chip experience must reflect ownership beyond IP/block-level verification (IP/block-only exposure is not sufficient).

Even Better If

  • Experience with MIPI, DDR4/DDR5, and/or AMBA protocols (AXI4, AXI4-Lite, AXI4-Stream).

  • Familiarity with VIP-based verification environments.

  • Exposure to FPGA/Vivado-based IP verification flows.

Who Thrives Here

  • You enjoy being accountable for verification quality—especially when timelines are tight and the design is complex.

  • You’re comfortable working across teams and locations, and you communicate clearly about what’s working, what’s blocked, and what you’re doing next.

  • You think in systems: not just “make the test pass,” but “make the verification strategy catch the right failures.”

  • You like building reusable verification assets (environments, checks, coverage) that make future projects faster.

The Team You’ll be joining a delivery-focused engineering setup at Proxelera, supporting active work across verification and physical design output so projects don’t slip. The team is built for multi-site execution, with engineers and design centers across India and the USA—so you’ll collaborate with people who care deeply about throughput and engineering rigor.

Comp, Logistics and Benefits

Location / Work mode: Bangalore, Onsite (all 5 days)

Open roles: 2

Compensation: The hiring team will share compensation details directly.

Benefits will be shared during the hiring conversation.

Non-Traditional Backgrounds If your verification experience spans multiple protocol-heavy domains (and you can show how you drove coverage and debug to closure), we’d still like to hear from you.
