Description

Company Overview

Ambiq is on a mission to enable intelligence everywhere — powering the AI edge revolution with the world's lowest-power semiconductor solutions.

Built on our proprietary sub- and near-threshold technology, our chips deliver multi-fold improvements in energy efficiency without costly process scaling. Since 2010, we've shipped over 300 million units to customers building smarter wearables, medical devices, IoT products, and AI-powered edge applications.

Our cross-functional teams span design, research, development, production, marketing, sales, and operations across Austin, Hsinchu, Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Singapore. We move fast, tackle hard problems, and create space for people to grow through complex, meaningful work that shapes the future of technology.

We're looking for self-motivated, creative problem-solvers who are eager to push technological limits and make a real impact in energy efficiency.

At Ambiq, we live by five values: Innovate. Collaborate. Focus. Learn. Achieve.

If that's you, join us — the intelligence everywhere revolution starts here.

Scope

You will be responsible for verifying digital and mixed-signal designs, including systems-on-chip with multiple CPUs, digital signal processors, security hardware, and other logic for IoT applications.

Responsibilities

  • The right candidate will be a self-starter who assumes full ownership of DV tasks and delivers high-quality results.
  • Develop test plans at block, sub-system, and chip level.
  • Execute SoC-based verification at full-chip and module level verification.
  • Experience in ARM or RISC-V based micro-controllers.
  • Power-aware methodology (CPF/UPF).
  • Write C-based lib packages and tests.
  • Architect and implement scalable and reusable module test benches using SystemVerilog and UVM.
  • Develop comprehensive test cases, stimulus generation, and checkers to achieve high coverage.
  • Automate the test environment for randomized testing and score-boarding.
  • Utilize advanced debugging techniques to identify and resolve design and verification issues.
  • Perform root-cause analysis and work with design teams to fix identified issues.
  • Define and track functional and code coverage metrics to ensure thorough verification.
  • Ensure that verification quality meets or exceeds industry standards and project requirements.
  • Edge-based AI inference is preferred.

Qualifications

  • BSEE/MSEE with 7 - 10+ years of experience (seniority depends on years of experience) in block, sub-system, and full-chip verification.
  • Technologies: Experienced in ARM M/RISC-V (Preferred) SoC Verification, expert in AMBA AXI/AHB/APB, DMA, Flow Control, Serial Devices, Low Power (CPF/UPF) Verification, 3rd party IP integration verification.
  • Experience in peripheral modules (UART, SPI, I2C), Audio subsystem, Display subsystem, USB, OTP, Crypto is a plus.
  • Languages: Strong in SystemVerilog (UVM), Verilog, C/C++, Python, Perl, or Makefile.
  • Should have delivered multiple chips functioning to specification.
  • Identify and manage verification deliverables, milestones, and schedules.
  • Proactively identify potential verification risks and develop mitigation strategies.
  • Collaborate with design, architecture, and software teams to understand and verify design intent.
  • Communicate verification progress, issues, and results to stakeholders and management.
  • Strong in understanding multiple architectures, integrating 3rd party IPs/VIPs, and working with mixed-signal designs with low-power design and verification challenges.
  • Strong understanding/exposure to Design Verification for low-power battery-operated designs is highly desired.
  • C-based verification in an SoC environment is required.
  • Experience with ARM processor-based designs and low-power design techniques is a plus.
