The Senior Silicon Design Verification Engineer for YouTube Video Accelerators will be part of a team focused on developing custom silicon solutions for Google's products. This role involves ensuring the functional correctness of custom video codec ASICs by managing a specialized High-Level Synthesis workflow. The engineer will bridge the gap between algorithmic intent and hardware implementation, employing various verification strategies. This position requires comprehensive ownership of the verification life-cycle and continuous refinement of methodologies for HLS-based silicon design.

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 8 years of experience with Design Verification.
• Experience with SystemVerilog and Universal Verification Methodology (UVM).
• Master's degree or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or Computer Science is preferred.
• Practical experience with High-Level Synthesis tools and strong C/C++ skills.

• Lead comprehensive verification strategies and signoff for complex blocks where the source is C/C++.
• Design and maintain advanced environments for functional validation and RTL timing.
• Employ HLS-specific methods to ensure hardware fidelity.
• Drive complex bug hunting and coverage analysis across both C++ and RTL domains.
• Partner with design teams to optimize C++ code for verifiability and mentor junior engineers.

• Employees at Google are often offered benefits like comprehensive health insurance, 401(k) matching, and flexible work arrangements, among other benefits.
