Ams Verification Leader

We are now searching for the best talents over the world to meet our business growth.

For our fast-growing product line Drivers and Energy Systems, we are currently looking for a mixed signal verification leader to drive the execution for the verification our mixed-signal circuit designs.

You already have a good experience in leading large projects in order to guide AMS verification engineers and contractors, assign tasks, build project verification environment.

You have excellent communication skills and proven ability to collaborate across organizational and geographical boundaries.

You used to make timely decision in face of incomplete information, managing risks and setting priorities driven by business impact.

Successful applicants will be accountable for:

- Leading AMS verification team in projects
- Improve MS verification environment for higher speed and lower cost
- Bridging digital verification environment with mixed signal environment
- Support Analog virtual test team for running production test program before TO
- Innovating and influencing for continuous methodology improvement to improve cycle time and quality
- Growing verification engineers from the team

On top of that, as a project leader you will need to be accountable for:

- Mastering the specification of the devices under test
- Defining the test specification of our products in closed collaboration with design leaders, verification architect and product definers
- Defining the AMS verification strategy to reach 100% functional coverage prior tapeout on our products
- Developing the simulation environment: drivers, monitors, checkers, and assertions
- Developing and validating high-performance behavioral models
- Developing and running top-level simulations according to the verification plan
- Preparing and holding design verification reviews
- Creating and maintaining regression test suites
- Reporting bugs, proposing solutions, and following their resolution
- Reviewing verification team deliverables (code, coverage results)

You will work closely with analog and digital designers as well as test and apps engineers to support both pre-silicon verification and post-silicon validation.

Working in a strong technical biased environment, you will develop your competencies and will have the opportunity of evolving in both technical or project responsibilities.

If you have the passion for innovation, the desire to challenge yourself and want to put your creativity in enabling the new mobility experience with electric autonomous cars, this is the right opportunity to join the leader in automotive semiconductor.
