NXP Semiconductors
Entry Level Design, Verification, and Validation Engineers - December 2025 and M
NXP Semiconductors, Austin, Texas, us, 78716
Overview
Design, Verification, and Validation Engineers all play an important role in developing NXP’s products across all Business Lines. We offer opportunities in both Digital and Analog Design, as well as Functional Verification, and Validation. Business Lines hiring Design, Verification, and Validation Engineers include MCU/MPU, Automotive Processing, Edge Processing, Connectivity & Security.
As a design engineer, you would be involved in the entire activity around the design for your project. You take ownership of the RTL design at block level and contribute through various phases of the ASIC/SOC design process.
Verification Engineers may work with state of the art mixed signal ICs with experience in UVM or OVM. The verification responsibilities will include architecting verification strategies, participating on a team to verify logic designs, and building System Verilog constraint driven testbenches.
The company has rejuvenated its analog focus bringing to market new, innovative products that combine analog and mixed signal capability with embedded control for automotive body, radar, chassis and safety, powertrain and driver information systems. On the consumer side,we provide highly integrated power management ICs for portable communications and computing products such as tablets, slates, e-readers and netbooks.
Scope of Responsibilities/Expectations may include:
Perform functional simulations and design debug
Develop functional verification plans
Develop functional verification testcases, Verification IP, and testbench components
Develop scripts and automation to enhance coverage reports
Perform digital silicon validation using development boards and lab equipment
Development of validation infrastructure, test case development for validation targeted for an IP, sub-system, or SoC level.
Develop digital validation plans
Develop digital validation testcases, and debug silicon, as required
Develop scripts and automation to enhance coverage reports
Create and execute test plan for the function of design
Design, implement, and improve UVM test bench.
Run coverage and regression. Analyze coverage gaps and devise strategy to achieve higher code coverage.
Develop and refine test cases and simulation model.
Work closely with different functional groups to support successful product release.
Job Qualifications BS or MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science or similar is required, along with up to 2 years experience, including internships
Experience or coursework in the following are helpful in determining which product or business line you might support:
Logic / digital design.
Digital verification using System Verilog and UVM methodology.
Mixed-signal IC design
Understanding of digital and mixed-signal debug
Any experience with EDA tools desirable.
Scripting in Python, Perl, TCL
Embedded code development (C, Assembly)
OOPS, C/C++ software development
ASIC/SOC design flow
Hands-on RTL coding is a big plus
Hands-on experience in lab, and familiar with lab equipment
Post silicon logic debug background, analyzing test logs, SW hooks development for debug purposes
Excellent debugging skills and drive to develop innovative hardware.
Strong critical thinking, problem solving
Strong written and oral communication skills
This posting is not presently tied to a specific opening, however by submitting your application you’ll be considered for any current or future opportunities in Design, Verification, or Validation that align with your background, interests, and qualifications.
