Core Engineering - Design Engineer III

Location:

Onsite 3 days in Sunnyvale, CA

Salary Range:

Max pay rate: upto $80/hr on W2. 

Introduction

We are seeking a Power Measurement Design Verification Engineer to develop and execute DV test strategies focused on power and performance characterization at the IP and SoC level. This role is critical to enabling accurate pre-silicon power estimation, driving power optimization decisions, and maintaining automated power reporting infrastructure.

Required Skills & Qualifications

• Proven SystemVerilog UVM verification experience (testbench architecture, sequences, drivers/monitors).
• Functional coverage, constrained-random, and assertion-based verification (SVA); coverage closure.
• Strong RTL debug with industry simulators (VCS / Xcelium / Questa) and waveform tools (Verdi).
• Working knowledge of RTL design principles and digital design fundamentals.
• Proficiency in Python (or Perl) scripting for automation.
• Prior work experience at client or in client's industry.

Applicants must be able to work directly for Artech on W2.

Preferred Skills & Qualifications

• Experience with power measurement tools — PrimeTime PX (PTPX) or equivalent (e.g., PrimePower).
• Low-power / power-aware verification (UPF, power-aware sim) in advanced nodes (7nm and below).
• Formal verification and/or emulation (Palladium / Zebu) experience.
• Familiarity with the RTL-to-GDSII flow.
• Data analysis / ML approaches for coverage or debug triage.

Day-to-Day Responsibilities

• Develop and execute verification plans for RTL blocks/IPs across the subsystem.
• Build and maintain SystemVerilog/UVM testbenches; write directed and constrained-random tests.
• Drive functional coverage and assertion (SVA) closure; run and triage regressions.
• Perform power/performance measurement across design stages using PPA RTL, PtPx tool; correlate results with post silicon and feedback to design/power-modeling teams.
• Debug RTL failures (waveform/Verdi) and provide actionable feedback to the design team/verification team.
• Contribute to automation of verification/regression and power/performance measurement flows (Python).

Company Benefits & Culture

• Collaborative work environment with a focus on innovation and technology.
• Opportunities for professional growth and development.
• Supportive team culture with a commitment to diversity and inclusion.
