Senior Design Verification Engineer (AI)

Location: Mountain View, California, United States — onsite

Salary: $200,000–$350,000 base plus equity

Company

hirify.global is working with an early-stage AI compute company developing a full-stack platform based on system-on-wafer architecture and advanced 3D integration to reduce power, latency, and infrastructure costs in AI clusters.

What you will do

• Own a verification domain from specification analysis and verification planning through debug and functional closure.
• Develop end-to-end verification strategies across IP, SoC-level testing, and emulation.
• Build and maintain UVM testbench architecture for complex AI accelerator designs.
• Collaborate with hardware and software engineers to understand system behavior, identify verification gaps, and resolve failures.
• Influence verification strategy, testbench design, tooling, and AI-assisted verification and emulation methods.

Requirements

• At least five years of pre-silicon verification experience, including ownership of complex IP, subsystems, or SoCs from planning through functional closure.
• Strong experience in one or more of block or subsystem verification, CPU subsystem and IP integration, full-chip verification, emulation, DMA/NoC, or multi-SoC and die-to-die protocols.
• Strong command of UVM methodology and testbench architecture.
• Experience debugging complex designs and delivering end-to-end verification results.
• Ability to interpret specifications from both hardware and software perspectives.

Nice to have

• RISC-V experience.
• Formal verification experience.
• Experience with Palladium, Veloce, or similar emulation platforms.
• Post-silicon bring-up experience.

Culture & Benefits

• Technical ownership of a substantial verification domain within a new AI computing platform.
• Direct collaboration with engineers shaping the hardware and software architecture.
• Opportunity to influence verification strategy, testbench design, and tooling within a growing team.
• Visa sponsorship and immigration support are available for qualified candidates.
• Close connection between verification work and accelerator silicon delivery.

Hiring process

• Interested candidates are invited to start a conversation.
