Senior Verification Engineer

We're looking for a Senior Verification Engineer to join a specialist RTL team developing advanced communications technology across ASIC and FPGA platforms. You'll take responsibility for the UVM verification of complex wireless communications IP and modem subsystems, ensuring designs meet functional, performance, and quality requirements ahead of FPGA deployment and ASIC tape-out. This is an opportunity to work on technically challenging projects covering IP development, integration, and verification, while also supporting and mentoring more junior engineers.

Skills Required:

• Degree in Electronic Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related discipline.
• At least 3 years' experience verifying digital ASIC and/or FPGA designs.
• Strong SystemVerilog and UVM experience.
• Good understanding of RTL design principles and hardware implementation.
• Experience with coverage-driven and assertion-based verification.
• Linux proficiency with Python, Tcl or Bash scripting skills.
• Strong analytical, debugging and problem-solving skills.
• Experience using AI to accelerate verification while maintaining quality.
• Ability to collaborate effectively across multiple engineering teams.

What You'll Be Doing:

• Develop verification plans from design and architecture specifications.
• Create and maintain SystemVerilog/UVM verification environments.
• Develop testbenches, assertions, scoreboards and coverage models.
• Carry out directed and constrained-random verification.
• Analyse coverage and debug RTL and verification issues.
• Support subsystem and system-level integration.
• Contribute to automation, regression testing and CI workflows.
• Participate in design reviews and verification sign-off.
• Mentor and support junior engineers.

Desirable Experience:

• 4G/5G, NTN, satellite communications or DSP systems.
• Modem architectures and Layer 1 processing.
• Formal Verification, FPGA prototyping and CI environments.
• MATLAB or equivalent modelling tools.
