Digital Verification Engineer (FPGA/ASIC)

Location: Santa Clara, California, United States; hybrid. Travel: 0–10%.

Company

hirify.global develops switching platforms involving FPGA, ASIC, digital logic, and hardware/software integration.

What you will do

• Design, build, and maintain block-level through full-chip verification environments for FPGA and ASIC targets.
• Develop reusable drivers, monitors, scoreboards, checkers, and behavioral reference models.
• Author directed and constrained-random tests for functional modes, corner cases, error injection, resets, and clock-domain behavior.
• Define functional and code-coverage goals, drive coverage closure, and add SVA assertions for protocol and interface violations.
• Run and debug ModelSim/QuestaSim and NC-Verilog simulations, maintain automated regressions, and produce reproducible failure reports.
• Support FPGA and board bring-up, HW/SW co-validation, register-map and boot-sequence checks, and verification milestone sign-off.

Requirements

• 3–7 years of digital verification experience on FPGA or ASIC designs.
• Proficiency in Verilog; strong SystemVerilog experience is preferred.
• Hands-on experience with ModelSim/QuestaSim and/or NC-Verilog.
• Knowledge of testbench construction, constrained-random stimulus, functional and code coverage, and assertions.
• BS or MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.

Nice to have

• Knowledge of RTL design, pipelines, clock-domain crossing, bus/interconnect protocols, or digital architecture.
• Experience with UVM or an equivalent structured verification methodology.
• Experience collaborating with firmware/software teams during system bring-up and HW/SW co-validation.
• Familiarity with networking or switching datapaths and high-speed interfaces.

Culture & Benefits

• Close collaboration with RTL designers and firmware engineers.
• Hybrid work arrangement in Santa Clara, California.
• Minimal travel, limited to 0–10%.
• Focus on deterministic regressions, defensible coverage, and reliable hardware bring-up.
