Job description

The role of a pre-silicon digital verification engineer at Apple involves working on mixed signal integrated circuits within a small, high-performing team. The engineer will focus on verifying complex digital IPs and collaborating with system architects and digital designers to create precise specifications. Responsibilities include building verification plans and testbenches using formal verification and UVM-based simulation. This position offers the opportunity to learn various verification techniques while contributing to the development of Apple's next generation products.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in a relevant field.
  • A minimum of 3 years of relevant industry experience.
  • Extensive coursework in digital design and computer architecture.
  • Foundation in object-oriented programming techniques.
  • Experience with System Verilog.
  • Familiarity with constrained random verification techniques.
  • Some coursework in analog circuit design.

Responsibilities

  • Collaborate in developing precise design specifications for digital control blocks.
  • Use design specifications to create block and chip level verification plans.
  • Architect and create block level verification elements.
  • Assist in architecting chip and system level verification environments.
  • Use System Verilog and UVM to develop drivers, tests, reference models, and checkers.
  • Debug test failures and work with designers to develop fixes.
  • Use functional and code coverage to track progress and gauge tapeout readiness.

Benefits

  • Employees at Apple are often offered comprehensive benefits that support physical and mental well-being—flexible medical plans, confidential counseling, onsite wellness centers at major campuses, and resources for fitness and daily life. Families typically receive fertility support, paid parental leave with gradual return, caregiving leave, and dependent-care guidance, while financial perks commonly include stock grants (with purchase discounts), 401(k) matching, and income-protection coverage. Employees also see robust time off, Apple University learning and tuition reimbursement, donation matching and paid volunteer hours, and deep product and partner discounts.
