* Investigating and scripting new verification flows and optimising existing ones
* Developing methodology and deploying within the group and having full ownership of verification closure and mentoring other members of the team.
* Collaborate with architects, RTL designers, and software teams to define verification scope and goals.
* Close collaboration with other Arm engineering teams leading to high quality IP that works well in a complete system.
Essential skills and experience
* You can demonstrate experience in working with constrained-random verification including ownership of a suitably complex verification environment.
* Experience of architecting and implementing functional verification environments for complex IP.
* Experience developing re-usable and scalable code whilst having good knowledge of UVM.
* Strong scripting skills – being able to develop scripting to support new flows.
* Proven software engineering skills including understanding of object-oriented programming, data structures, and algorithms.
* You are familiar with the tools and processes for developing testbenches and finishing all aspects of the verification process.
