About The Role

&lt;div class=&quot;content-intro&quot;&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Company Overview&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ambiq&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;is on a mission to enable intelligence everywhere — powering the AI edge revolution with the world&#39;s lowest-power semiconductor solutions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;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&#39;ve shipped over 300 million units to customers building smarter wearables, medical devices, IoT products, and AI-powered edge applications.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;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.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We&#39;re looking for self-motivated, creative problem-solvers who are eager to push technological limits and make a real impact in energy efficiency.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;At Ambiq, we live by five values:&amp;nbsp;&lt;strong&gt;Innovate. Collaborate. Focus. Learn. Achieve.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If that&#39;s you, join us — the intelligence everywhere revolution starts here.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Responsibilities&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You will be responsible for verifying digital designs, including systems-on-chip with multiple CPUs, digital signal processors, security hardware, and other logic for IoT applications.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Specific responsibilities include:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The right candidate will be a self-starter who assumes full ownership of DV tasks and delivers high-quality results.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Develop test plans at block, sub-system, and chip level.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Execute SoC-based verification at full-chip.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Implement scalable and reusable test benches using SystemVerilog and UVM.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Develop comprehensive test cases, stimulus generation, and checkers to achieve high coverage.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Automating the test environment for randomized testing and score boarding.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Utilize advanced debugging techniques to identify and resolve design and verification issues.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Perform root-cause analysis and work with design teams to fix identified issues&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Define and track functional and code coverage metrics to ensure thorough verification.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Ensure that verification quality meets or exceeds industry standards and project requirements.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Edge-based AI inference is preferred.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Requirements&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
