As a DV Lead in the Peripheral group, you will own verification of complex IPs and subsystems, define and execute UVM‑based verification strategy, and lead a small team of talented engineers to first‑time‑right silicon.

What you’ll do

• Define verification strategy, test plan, and coverage goals for complex peripheral IP and subsystem blocks
• Architect, develop, and maintain UVM‑based constrained‑random verification environments
• Lead day‑to‑day activities of a small DV team: task planning, code and testplan reviews, mentoring, and technical guidance
• Drive debug of complex issues across RTL, testbench, and system level, working closely with design, emulation and validation teams
• Analyze and close functional and code coverage, drive quality metrics to tape‑out criteria
• Contribute to methodology and flow improvements across the Peripheral DV team

Minimum qualifications

• BSc/MSc in Electrical/Computer Engineering or related field
• At least 7 years of hands‑on verification experience using UVM and SystemVerilog
• Strong background in digital design and SoC/IP architecture
• Proven technical leadership:
• Prior experience leading or mentoring engineers or
• Demonstrated ability and motivation to lead a small DV team (e.g., ownership of major IP, driving cross‑functional efforts)
• High technical proficiency in:
• UVM testbench architecture (agents, sequences, scoreboards, coverage)
• Constrained‑random, coverage‑driven verification
• Debugging complex failures in large‑scale regressions
• Scripting (Python/Perl/Tcl/shell) in a UNIX/Linux environment

Preferred qualifications

• Experience with high‑speed peripherals (e.g., USB, PCIe, Display, SerDes, or similar I/O IP)
• Knowledge of low‑power, reset, and clock‑domain interactions at IP/SoC level
• Familiarity with regression management, metrics, and sign‑off criteria
• Experience working with global, cross‑site teams

What we offer

Opportunity to own verification of cutting‑edge peripheral IP used in high‑volume products

A strong technical environment with the ability to lead, influence, and mentor

Collaboration with world‑class design, architecture, CAD and validation teams

Growth path toward broader technical or managerial leadership within Qualcomm

If you are a technically strong verification engineer with deep UVM experience and the drive to lead people and projects, we’d like to hear from you.
