IP Verification Engineer

## Grow with us Senior Design Verification Engineer — ASIC IP Silicon Verification | 5G Infrastructure | Austin, TX On-site, Hybrid work schedule| Ericsson Silicon This is not a remote work opportunity Your Verification Work Ships. Globally. Not into a test environment. Not into a reference platform. Into the live 5G infrastructure connecting the world. Ericsson's ASICs are the backbone of next-generation 5G networks — and the engineers who verify they actually work are the ones who make sure that backbone never breaks. If you've spent several years hunting down the hardest RTL bugs, building verification environments that others rely on, and you're ready to take on a role that puts you in the technical and organizational lead — this is where you belong. What You'll Own You're joining Ericsson's ASIC IP organization in Austin, Texas — a world-class, growing semiconductor team that develops, tests, and delivers the functional RTL blocks that go into some of the most critical silicon on the planet. This isn't a narrow, siloed role. You'll stretch across the full verification stack and step into team leadership as we scale: TLM Modeling — building transaction-level models that give the team early architectural confidence Block- and Top-Level Verification — owning sign-off at both levels of the hierarchy Testbench Architecture — designing and building UVM environments from a clean slate HW Emulation & Acceleration — pushing verification beyond simulation into hardware-speed environments SW-Driven Verification — bridging the hardware/software boundary where the hardest bugs hide Team Leadership — mentoring engineers, influencing methodology, and helping shape how the team grows What We're Looking For You bring deep technical credibility and the kind of mindset that sees a complex problem as an invitation, not an obstacle. ## Join our Team What You'll need: Several years of hands-on, IN INDUSTRY, RTL verification experience at block and/or top level Strong SystemVerilog/UVM chops — not just using it, but architecting with it Experience building testbenches from the ground up Familiarity with technologies like SerDes, PCIe, ARM subsystems, DSPs/accelerators, or Ethernet Scripting fluency in TCL, Python, Perl, or equivalent Communication skills that match your technical depth Additional Preferred Skills That Set You Apart These aren't checkbox items — they're the tools of someone who builds verification environments that actually catch what matters: Test plan ownership — You've written test plans and directed/randomized test cases from a blank page, not inherited someone else's framework Embedded software fluency — C and/or assembly aren't foreign languages to you; you've used them to design and test real embedded software Deep architecture intuition — You understand how embedded CPUs, memory systems, caches, and coherency protocols actually behave under pressure — ARM-based experience is a strong plus Protocol expertise — You've worked with AMBA interfaces (APB, AXI, ACE-Lite, CHI) and know how the bus-level details can make or break a verification strategy Engineering toolchain comfort — Linux, GIT, LSF — you live in these environments and don't slow down because of them Leadership instinct — You've started leading, and you're hungry to do more of it Object-oriented thinking — You write code that others can build on, not just code that runs Education B.S. or M.S. in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering — or the equivalent education. At Ericsson, we're committed to a workplace where everyone belongs. What's Actually in It for You Ericsson has been making bold calls for over a century — and the people here are the reason why. When you join, you're not inheriting a roadmap someone else drew. You're one of the people drawing the next one. The work you do here doesn't maintain the status quo — it replaces it with something better. What that looks like day to day: Career mobility — Hundreds of opportunities across global locations, with the freedom to move your career in the direction you choose A culture that actually listens — Speak-up culture isn't a tagline here. Empathy and honesty are how decisions get made Work-life balance that's real — Not aspirational. Actual. Global reach, local impact — You'll be part of a team building silicon that runs inside networks that billions of people depend on If you're ready to stop dreaming about what the future of connectivity looks like and start building it — this is your seat at the table.
