Design Verification Engineer

Change the world. Love your job.

Texas Instruments is seeking a Design Verification Engineer to join our Analog Power Products organization in Knoxville. In this role, you will develop and execute verification strategies that ensure first-pass silicon success for next-generation analog and mixed-signal ICs across industrial, automotive, and consumer applications.

As a Design Verification Engineer, you will work across the full verification cycle – from developing detailed verification plans and building test benches through running coverage regressions, tracking closure, and contributing to continuous improvements in DV methodology – collaborating closely with digital design and systems engineering teams.

Responsibilities include:

• Develop detailed verification plans while working closely with the design and system team to ensure first-pass silicon success
• Develop test benches, tests, and simulations at RTL and gate-level (GLS) for the entire chip
• Run coverage regressions to meet defined coverage goals
• Track and communicate verification status, issues, and concerns
• Work with regression tools and develop scripts to submit cases for regression analysis
• Contribute to continuous improvements for quality and efficiency on DV strategy, tools, methods, and flows

Minimum requirements:

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Electrical and Computer Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field
• 1+ years of experience in design verification or a related role

Preferred qualifications:

• Experience with functional verification methodologies including simulation, assertions, and coverage-driven verification
• Proficiency in SystemVerilog and UVM-based testbench development
• Experience with Mixed Signal verification a plus
• Experience with System Verilog real number models a plus
• Familiarity with RTL simulation tools (Cadence Xcelium, Synopsys VCS, or equivalent)
• Experience with gate-level simulation and timing-aware verification flows
• Scripting skills for regression automation and verification flow development (Python, Tcl, or Perl)
• Ability to establish strong relationships with key stakeholders critical to success, both internally and externally
• Strong verbal and written communication skills
• Demonstrated strong interpersonal, analytical, and problem-solving skills
• Ability to work in teams and collaborate effectively with people in different functions
• Ability to take the initiative and drive for results
