Job description

from Cisco careers

Meet the Team

It used to be that high-speed packet forwarding was performed in dedicated ASIC designs. These days we are looking to make those ASICs more general and programmable. Cisco Common ASIC Group is looking for a Senior ASIC Verification Engineer to drive existing projects and engage in new development of our next generation switching systems.

As part of the ASIC team, you will be developing the ASICs at the heart of each of these switch products. There are only a very few teams worldwide that implement such devices. Every time you access the Internet, chances are, your data's been through one of our switches.

Our group is responsible for working on the Silicon One family of chips, where we build some of the most complex ASIC chips using cutting-edge technologies and the latest industry tools and techniques. At Cisco, we are at the forefront of innovation in chip design, presenting our engineers with challenging tasks that foster professional growth and career development in this field

Your Impact

You are a talented, motivated ASIC verification engineer ready to contribute to the verification of very complex ASICs. You will have a Design Verification background, hands-on experience in System Verilog and UVM methodology, with in-depth knowledge of C++, scripting, as well as ASIC design and verification flow.
