Job DescriptionWe are seeking a highly experienced IP Design Verification Engineer to join the Verification R&D team at Renesas. In this role, you will be responsible for end-to-end verification of complex digital IPs and subsystems, ensuring first-pass silicon success through building verification environment from scratch using best in class methodologies, metric-driven verification, and intelligent coverage convergence using AI tools.You will play a key technical role in defining verification strategies, architecting testbenches, defining Test Plans tracing Requirements, driving coverage closure using advanced automation and AI-assisted techniques, and collaborating closely with Architecture, RTL, chip top, and Validation teams to deliver high-quality, reusable IPs for next-generation microcontrollers and microprocessors.Responsibilities:

Own end-to-end verification execution for complex digital IPs and subsystems from specification to sign-off
Define and drive IP-level verification strategies, including test plans, coverage models, and closure criteria
Develop scalable, reusable UVM-based verification environments for IP and subsystem verification
Lead functional, code, assertion, and cross-coverage closure, ensuring high-quality sign-off with clear metrics
Apply AI/ML-assisted verification techniques to accelerate coverage convergence, identify stimulus gaps, and optimize regression efficiency
Drive constraint random and directed test methodologies for thorough protocol, corner-case, and stress verification
Collaborate with RTL, Architecture, Emulation, and SoC Verification teams to ensure seamless IP integration
Review IP specifications and work with architects to translate requirements into robust verification plans and checkers
Develop and deploy advanced checkers, scoreboards, assertions (SVA), and protocol monitors
Work with EDA vendors to evaluate and adopt next-generation verification, coverage, and analytics tools
Mentor junior engineers and promote best-in-class verification practices and continuous improvement
Support Gate-Level Simulation (GLS), low-power verification, and post-silicon debug when required

Ensure IP deliverables meet quality, schedule, and reusability expectations for SoC integration

Qualifications

Bachelor's or Master's degree in electronics Engineering
5-12 years of experience in SoC Verification domains and have working knowledge of industry standard EDA toolkits.
Strong expertise in UVM-based testbench architecture and development
Proven experience in metric-driven verification, including functional and code coverage closure
Deep understanding of SystemVerilog, UVM, assertions (SVA), and verification best practices
Experience with directed and constrained-random verification methodologies
Solid knowledge of industry-standard protocols, such as: AMBA (AXI, AHB, ACE/CHI)
Experience debugging complex design issues in simulation, emulation, and post-silicon environments
Proficiency in Verilog/SystemVerilog, with working knowledge of C/C++, Shell scripting
Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills

Preferred/Plus Qualifications

Hands-on experience using AI/ML-based verification tools for:

Coverage gap analysis
Test stimulus optimization
Regression triage and coverage acceleration
Scripting expertise in Python, Perl, or TCL for automation and analytics
Exposure to formal verification and hybrid formal-simulation flows
Experience with low-power verification
Familiarity with high-speed or complex IPs, such as:

DDR / PCIe/UCIe
Interconnect fabrics (NIC / NoC / FlexNOC)
Security, debug, or safety-critical IPs
Experience delivering reusable, production-quality VIPs used across multiple SoCs
