Job Description

Join a highly experienced R&D team dedicated to developing Intellectual Property (IP) for advanced microcontrollers and microprocessors. This team focuses on creating a networking switch and network controller IP core (NETC) that supports the latest TSN standards, forming the networking foundation for NXP's latest microcontrollers, processors, and switches. The IP developed by this team underpins a product portfolio generating billions of USD in annual revenue. The chips you help develop are likely found in the car you drive, the smart devices in your home, and the factories producing the goods you use.


We are part of Advanced Chip Engineering (ACE), a central design organization within NXP, developing products for multiple business lines in Automotive, Internet of Things (IoT), Networking, and Radio Frequency products. Our expertise spans hardware engineering, including architecture, IP, and full SoC design.

We are seeking a highly motivated Design Verification Engineer with a relentless drive to excel and make a significant impact. Our team offers innovative thinking, engineering expertise, and sustained market leadership in embedded processing. By joining us, you will work with the advanced platforms that NXP delivers to major players in the automotive, industrial, edge, and telecommunication markets, featuring multiple processing cores and high-performance networking accelerators integrated on the same silicon chip.







In this role, you will:
Develop solutions for the verification of the hardware System On Chip (SoC) products Develop, execute and debug a wide range of functional tests in a verilog simulation environment for content processing hardware IP designs Analyze requirements, assist in defining verification plans and strategy Develop simulation testcases, including drivers and monitors Work closely with IC Design Engineers Determine RTL code coverage and address coverage issues Assist in development of verification environment



In order to apply for this position, the candidate must have:


A bachelor degree in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering program Student work experience in hardware design or verification environment Focus on quality of results, with proven problem-solving abilities. Ability to effectively communicate verbally and in writing in English and work within all levels of the organization Must be a dynamic team player
