Job Title: Design Verification Engineer Contract | AI Hardware

Type: Contract (Long-term potential)

Overview:

Were working with a fast-moving technology company developing next-generation AI hardware. Theyre looking for an experienced Design Verification Engineer to help validate the performance and reliability of their custom chip designs, before they ever hit silicon.

This is a hands-on role where youll be building out test environments, writing simulation-based tests, and working closely with architects and RTL designers to catch bugs early and ensure the hardware does exactly what its supposed to.

What youll be doing:

• Creating reusable, scalable simulation test environments for complex digital blocks.
• Writing tests that model real world scenarios and stress the system from every angle.
• Working with design and architecture teams to translate specifications into verification plans.
• Debugging failures, improving coverage, and contributing to overall verification strategy.
• Helping the team evolve their verification infrastructure, tools, and methodologies.

What youll bring:

• Strong experience in digital design verification using SystemVerilog and UVM.
• Confidence writing and debugging simulation tests for complex IP or SoC-level designs.
• A thoughtful, detail oriented approach to catching hard-to-spot issues.
• Bonus if youve worked on AI chips, memory subsystems, or interconnectsbut not required.
• Comfort working in Python or C/C++ for scripting and test automation.

Why its compelling:

This is an opportunity to join a team thats solving real problems in AI hardware, without bureaucracy or rigid structure. Youll be part of a tight knit, highly technical group, helping to shape the foundations of a rapidly evolving product. If you enjoy solving hard problems, spotting bugs before they become silicon re-spins, and collaborating with smart people, this might be a great fit.
