**What You'll Do**

It used to be that high-speed packet forwarding was performed in dedicated ASIC designs. These days we are looking to make those ASICs more general and programmable. Cisco Common ASIC Group is looking for a Senior ASIC Verification Engineer to drive existing projects and engage in new development of our next generation switching systems.

As part of the ASIC team, you will be developing the ASICs at the heart of each of these switch products. There are only a very few teams worldwide that implement such devices. Every time you access the Internet, chances are, your data's been through one of our switches.

**Who You'll Work With**

You will work with Cisco’s best-in-class switching solution team. Our team is responsible for driving integration of the Nexus systems and ACI with software, including OpenStack, Docker, and Open vSwitch, to help our customers build multi tenant clouds.

**Who You Are**

You are a talented, motivated ASIC verification engineer to join the team and contribute to the verification of very complex ASICs. You will have in-depth knowledge of ASIC Design Verification, hands-on experience in System Verilog/SVA and UVM methodology, with in-knowledge of C++, scripting, as well as ASIC design and verification flow.

You’ll be part of Cisco Common ASIC Group, focusing on developing and upgrading various test benches and contributing to different aspects of verification infrastructure.

You will collaborate closely with the design team and the hardware team to verify the ASIC in simulation, in emulation and during ASIC bring up.

**Responsibilities Include**:

- Develop block-level test benches, including components such as drivers, monitors, and sequences.
- Maintain existing test benches for both block-level and cluster-level verification.
- Upgrade test benches to incorporate new features.
- Perform end-to-end verification of various design blocks.
- Create test plans and define cover points.
- Update and enhance configuration and reset sequences (APIs).
- Collaborate with designers and verification engineers to conduct cross-block verification.
- Write tests and debug regression issues.
- Contribute to top-level verification efforts.
- Participate in emulation testing activities.

**Minimum requirements**:
Master’s degree in EE (Electrical & Electronics) or CE (Computer Engineering) with 2+ YoE in Design Verification

OR

Bachelor’s degree in EE or CE and 3+ YoE in Design Verification
- Proficiency in digital design.
- Hands-on and deep understanding of Verilog and System Verilog.
- Familiarity and comfort with UVM methodology.
- Basic scripting experience (Python, Perl, shell programming).

**Preferred Qualifications**:

- Capability to debug issues independently.
- knowledge of programming languages (C/C++).
- Familiarity with Perforce/Git.
- Experience with Formal Verification.
- Experience with Emulation.

**Other Skills**:

- Self learning, Problem Solving and logical thinking skills.
- Good written and verbal communication skills.
- Collaborative and team-focused, with the drive to learn and grow.

**We Are Cisco**

WeAreCisco, where each person is unique, but we bring our talents to work as a team and make a difference powering an inclusive future for all.

We embrace digital, and help our customers implement change in their digital businesses. Some may think we’re “old” (36 years strong) and only about hardware, but we’re also a software company. And a security company. We even invented an intuitive network that adapts, predicts, learns, and protects. No other company can do what we do - you can’t put us in a box

But “Digital Transformation” is an empty buzz phrase without a culture that allows for innovation, creativity, and yes, even failure (if you learn from it.)

Day to day, we focus on the give and take. We give our best, give our egos a break, and give of ourselves (because giving back is built into our DNA.) We take accountability, bold steps, and take difference to heart. Because without diversity of thought and a dedication to equality for all, there is no moving forward.

So, you have colorful hair? Don’t care. Tattoos? Show off your ink. Like polka dots? That’s cool. Pop culture geek? Many of us are. Passion for technology and world changing? Be you, with us
