OpenAI is developing custom silicon to power the next generation of frontier AI models. We’re looking for experienced Design Verification (DV) Engineers to ensure functional correctness and robust design for our cutting-edge ML accelerators. You will play a key role in verifying complex hardware systems—ranging from individual IP blocks to subsystems and full SoC—working closely with architecture, RTL, software, and systems teams to deliver reliable silicon at scale.
Job Responsibility:
Own the verification of one or more of: custom IP blocks, subsystems (compute, interconnect, memory, etc.), or full-chip SoC-level functionality
Define verification plans based on architecture and microarchitecture specs
Develop constrained-random, directed, and system-level testbenches using SystemVerilog/UVM or equivalent methodologies
Build and maintain stimulus generators, checkers, monitors, and scoreboards to ensure high coverage and correctness
Drive bug triage, root cause analysis, and work closely with design teams on resolution
Contribute to regression infrastructure, coverage analysis, and closure for both block- and top-level environments
Requirements:
BS/MS in EE/CE/CS or equivalent with 3+ years of experience in hardware verification
Proven success verifying complex IP or SoC designs in industry-standard flows
Proficient in SystemVerilog, UVM, and common simulation and debug tools (e.g., VCS, Questa, Verdi)
Strong knowledge of computer architecture concepts, memory and cache systems, coherency, interconnects, and/or ML compute primitives
Experience working in fast-paced, cross-disciplinary teams with a passion for building reliable hardware
Nice to have:
Familiarity with performance modeling, formal verification, or emulation is a plus
