Snap Inc is a technology company. We believe the camera presents the greatest opportunity to improve the way people live and communicate. Snap contributes to human progress by empowering people to express themselves, live in the moment, learn about the world, and have fun together. The Company’s three core products are Snapchat, a visual messaging app that enhances your relationships with friends, family, and the world; Lens Studio, an augmented reality platform that powers AR across Snapchat and other services; and its AR glasses, Spectacles.

 Snap is a technology company, which contributes to human progress by empowering people to express themselves, live in the moment, learn about the world, and have fun together. Snap accomplishes this through development of augmented reality products that overlay virtual objects onto the world around you and allow you to capture those moments to seamlessly share with family and friends. Snap believes that this presents the greatest opportunity to improve the way we live and communicate. In order to provide these seamless AR experiences, Snap builds Artificial Intelligence ASICs which are optimized to save energy and maximize efficiency. We apply state-of-the-art engineering practices towards building our designs in advanced silicon nodes (5nm, and below).

In this role, you will be responsible for the verification of our AI ASIC design and stand behind the quality of the end-product. You will be part of a highly diverse international team of skilled engineers and scientists, and you are expected to be a key driver of the team’s further growth.


Core responsibilities:

  • Assure the overall quality of our designs, which contribute to exciting launches of wireless portable hardware at Snap

  • Serve as an individual contributor to own and develop the verification of one or more aspects of our ASIC design, ranging from IP blocks to whole SoC subsystems.

  • Ownership throughout the whole project lifecycle, e.g.: Specification reviews, Verification plans, test case development, UVM environments, Coverage (analysis), Debugging, GLS, etc.

  • Work closely with other teams to gather relevant information and share your knowledge about the design to further improve requirements and specifications. As well as providing vital feedback in their debugging efforts

  • Collaborate with the global verification team to improve our processes and launch initiatives to improve the overall quality of the design as well as the way of working to become the best in class verification team


Knowledge, Skills and Abilities:

  • Proven (5+ years) hands-on experience with state-of-the-art verification methodologies and processes, such as UVM / SystemVerilog, Formal verification, Constraint-random verification, Assertions, Coverage metrics, Coverage analysis, Gate Level Simulation, Key Performance Indicators testing, etc.

  • Strong understanding of some of the following areas is preferred: SoCs, CPUs, GPUs, NPUs, AI, peripherals, security, etc.

  • Hands-on experience with implementing both constraint-random and directed tests using UVM but also C for running on embedded microprocessors

  • Designing and creating a UVM based test environment from scratch for newly developed IPs as well as integration of Verification IPs for third party IPs is a big plus

  • Knowledge or affinity with the verification of different kinds of peripherals (e.g. low speed peripherals such as: I3C, SPI, I2S, UART, or high-speed peripherals such as MIPI, PCIe)

  • Ability to read and understand RTL code (SystemVerilog, Verilog, VHDL)

  • Experience with revision control systems and CI/CD techniques

  • Nice to have experience with DfX (DfT, MBIST, etc.)

  • Working knowledge of machine learning, artificial intelligence, neuromorphic compute

  • Phenomenal interpersonal skills; ability to collaborate across teams, and to work independently

  • Excellent process development and documentation skills

  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills

  • A passion for snapchat and creativity are appreciated!
