Job Description

Responsibilities

We are looking for a Senior Staff ASIC Design Verification Engineer to lead complex verification execution and contribute significantly to IP, Subsystem, and SoC-level verification. This role requires strong hands-on expertise, ownership of verification deliverables, and the ability to apply advanced methodologies and AI-assisted workflows to ensure quality and on-time tape-out. You will focus on:

  • Lead and execute verification activities at the IP, Subsystem, and SoC levels
  • Define verification test plans and contribute to overall verification strategy
  • Develop, enhance, and maintain reusable UVM-based verification components and environments
  • Drive functional and code coverage closure and debug complex verification issues
  • Own key verification deliverables from development through sign-off
  • Apply AI-assisted techniques to improve debug speed, test generation, coverage analysis, and regression efficiency
  • Analyze verification metrics and continuously improve verification quality and productivity
  • Collaborate closely with design, architecture, validation, and cross-functional teams
  • Contribute to verification best practices, automation initiatives, and process improvements

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electronic Engineering or a related field
  • 8–12 years of hands-on ASIC Design Verification experience
  • Strong experience in IP, Subsystem, and SoC verification, preferably in networking or packet-processing domains
  • Solid experience building and maintaining scalable UVM-based verification environments
  • Strong proficiency in:
    • SystemVerilog, UVM, Verilog
    • C/C++
  • Good understanding of verification methodologies, including directed and constrained-random testing, coverage-driven verification, and gate-level simulations
  • Experience with Linux/Unix environments and scripting languages such as Python, Perl, or Shell
  • Working knowledge of high-speed protocols such as Ethernet, PCIe, USB 3.0, and SERDES
  • Exposure to SystemC and DSP is a plus
  • Experience leveraging AI-assisted verification tools or workflows is highly desirable
  • Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and effective communication abilities

MaxLinear is a global, NASDAQ-traded company (MXL) where the entrepreneurial spirit is alive and well. We are a fabless system-on-chip product company, striving to improve the world’s communication networks for everyone through our highly integrated radio-frequency (RF), analog, digital, and mixed-signal semiconductor solutions for access and connectivity, wired and wireless infrastructure, and industrial and multi-market applications.

We hire the best people in the industry and engage them in some of the most exciting opportunities that connect the world we live in today. Our growth has come from innovative, bold approaches to solving some of the world’s most challenging communication technology problems in the most efficient and effective manner.

MaxLinear began by developing the world’s first high-performance TV tuner chip using standard CMOS process technology. Others said we couldn’t achieve the extremely high-performance requirements using CMOS, but we proved them wrong and achieved enduring global market leadership with our designs. Since then, we’ve developed a full line of products that drive 4G and 5G infrastructure; enable data center, metro and long-haul optical interconnects; bring 10Gbit to the home; power the IoT revolution; and enable robust and reliable communication in harsh industrial environments. Over the years, we’ve expanded through organic growth and through several acquisitions that have perfectly complemented our existing portfolio and enabled us to deliver complete end-to-end solutions in our target markets. One such example was the acquisition of Intel’s Home Gateway Platform Division that added Wi-Fi, Ethernet, and Broadband Gateway Processor SoC technology to our connected home portfolio creating a complete and scalable platform of connectivity and access solutions to fully address our customers’ needs.

Our headquarters are in Carlsbad, near San Diego, California. We also have major design centers in Irvine and San Jose, California; Valencia, Spain; Bangalore, India; Munich, Germany; Israel; and Singapore.

We have approximately 1,200 employees, a substantial majority of whom have engineering degrees and include masters and Ph.D. graduates from many of the premiere universities around the world. Our employees thrive on innovation, outstanding execution, outside-the-box thinking, nimbleness, and collaboration. Together, we form a high-energy business team that is focused on building the best and most innovative products on the market.
