Description For Design Verification Engineer

Join an accomplished team at Apple developing custom integrated circuits for Apple's existing and future product lines. As a member of our mixed signal ASIC team, you will be responsible for verifying complex digital IP's. You will work with system architects and digital designers, making block level specifications clear and precise. You will use the specifications to build verification plans to exercise the functional, performance, stress cases, and error conditions in your blocks. You will own the creation of verification testbenches, using formal verification and UVM based simulation. Then you will build testcases using System Verilog Assertions and constrained random UVM testcases to get complete functional and code coverage for your blocks.

You will participate in code reviews of other blocks in the chips, offering proposals to more efficiently achieve our goal of bug-free designs on the first tapeout. In addition to traditional digital circuit simulation, you will have the opportunity to learn and use other verification techniques such as formal verification, digital mixed signal verification, and analog mixed signal simulation using state-of-the-art tools.

Although the team is small, we supply silicon to most of Apple's industry-leading hardware development teams. We have a close-knit, high-performing team ready to mentor engineers entering the mixed signal ASIC development field. Join us in building Apple's next generation products. Do you want to be a part of building the "surprise and delight" in Apple's future products?

This role offers a competitive base pay range of $58.61 to $88.29 per hour, along with additional benefits such as:

  • Comprehensive medical and dental coverage
  • Retirement benefits
  • Employee stock programs (discretionary restricted stock unit awards and employee stock purchase plan)
  • Discounted products and free services
  • Reimbursement for certain educational expenses related to advancing your career at Apple
  • Potential eligibility for discretionary bonuses or commission payments
  • Relocation benefits may be available
