Senior Design Verification Engineer

Austin, Texas

Meet the team

The Wireless PHYMAC team is responsible for designing the digital components of Silicon Labs’ low power energy-efficient wireless products. Our team focuses on building efficient, high-performance digital systems that enable wireless connectivity across applications such as smart home, industrial IoT, and smart cities. The team operates in a highly collaborative and cross-functional environment, working closely with system architects, analog/RF designers, firmware engineers, and product teams to deliver robust and scalable wireless solutions. By working at the intersection of digital design and wireless systems, the team plays a critical role in advancing the future of connected devices.

About the Role

As a Senior Design Verification Engineer, you will be responsible for ensuring the functional correctness and performance of digital modem designs used in Silicon Labs’ low-power wireless products. You will work closely with design, architecture, and system teams to develop verification strategies, build robust test environments, and debug complex issues across the PHY/MAC layers. This role offers the opportunity to contribute throughout the product lifecycle—from early design through silicon bring-up—while working on cutting-edge wireless technologies that power next-generation connected devices.

Responsibilities

  • Define and execute verification strategies for digital modem designs across key wireless use cases
  • Develop and maintain scalable verification environments using SystemVerilog/UVM or similar methodologies
  • Create test plans, test benches, and stimuli to achieve high functional and coverage closure
  • Debug and analyze design issues, working closely with design and architecture teams to resolve them
  • Track and drive functional and code coverage to ensure verification completeness
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with firmware, validation, and system teams to ensure correct system behavior
  • Support silicon bring-up and correlate pre-silicon verification with post-silicon results
  • Continuously improve verification methodologies, tools, and automation workflows

Minimum Qualifications

  • BSEE/CE or a related field
  • Solid understanding of digital design fundamentals and verification concepts
  • 3-6 years of experience in digital design verification, with a focus on modem or wireless PHY designs preferred
  • Experience with SystemVerilog and UVM or similar verification methodologies
  • Strong debugging skills with experience analyzing simulation results and identifying root causes
  • Familiarity with scripting languages such as Python or Perl for automation
  • Basic understanding of wireless communication systems or digital signal processing concepts
  • Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work effectively in a collaborative team environment

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience verifying wireless standards such as BLE, Wi-Fi, Zigbee, or similar technologies
  • Experience with advanced verification techniques such as constrained-random, coverage-driven verification, and SystemVerilog assertions (SVA)
  • Familiarity with C/C++ or MATLAB for algorithm modeling and reference model development
  • Experience with mixed-signal or system-level verification, including co-simulation with analog/RF components
  • Exposure to post-silicon validation, lab bring-up, and correlation with pre-silicon results
  • Experience with low-power design verification and power-aware methodologies

Benefits & Perks

You can look forward to the following benefits:

  • Great medical (Choice of PPO or Consumer Driven Health Plan with HSA), dental & vision plans
  • Flexible vacation plan.
  • Highly competitive salary
  • 401k plan with match and Roth plan option
  • Equity rewards (RSUs)
  • Life/AD&D and disability coverage
  • Flexible spending accounts
  • Adoption assistance

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
