About BTA Design Services
Headquartered in Ottawa, BTA Design Services supports the electronic design community across Canada and internationally, specializing in ASIC and FPGA design, verification, and embedded software development. We strengthen our clients' engineering teams and accelerate the delivery of complete, production-ready designs.
We are adaptable, efficient, and built around exceptional technical talent. Our continued growth reflects the trust our clients place in us, and we are currently searching for a Senior I/O Chiplet Verification Engineer.
About the Engagement
The I/O chiplet connects die-to-die interfaces with multi-protocol high-speed I/O, combining UCIe, PCIe, Ethernet, static switching, and an embedded management subsystem. You will collaborate with architecture, RTL, verification, firmware, physical design, and IP partners. Client identity and detailed program specifications are shared under confidentiality during interviews.
About the Position
You will establish and execute verification plans for assigned blocks, subsystems, and chip-level functions. Working closely with designers and architects, you will turn requirements into measurable verification goals and produce the evidence needed for sign-off, covering both high-speed datapaths and firmware-controlled management functions.
Key Responsibilities
- Build verification plans that map requirements to test scenarios, platforms, coverage goals, and sign-off criteria.
- Develop reusable SystemVerilog/UVM environments, sequences, agents, scoreboards, reference models, and assertions.
- Integrate vendor VIP and models; verify configured IP and end-to-end connectivity across protocol and PHY interfaces.
- Verify legal static-switch mappings, protocol modes, data integrity, latency, throughput, and reset or recovery behavior.
- Verify CSR access, boot and configuration sequences, sideband management, interrupts, and error handling with firmware teams.
- Apply simulation, formal and connectivity checks, low-power verification, and hardware/software co-simulation where appropriate.
- Automate regressions, triage failures, and close functional, assertion, and code coverage with documented exclusions.
- Review CDC/RDC findings with designers, support gate-level sanity checks and bring-up, and report verification readiness.
Must-Have Qualifications
- Extensive hands-on ASIC verification experience, 10 years or more, with ownership through tape-out sign-of.
- Strong SystemVerilog and UVM skills, including constrained-random stimulus and reusable testbench architecture.
- Proven ability to write verification plans, define coverage, debug complex failures, and drive closure.
- Experience verifying high-speed interfaces, complex SoCs, networking ASICs, or die-to-die interconnect.
- Hands-on VIP integration, reference modeling, scoreboarding, and assertion-based verification.
- Understanding of multi-clock and reset behavior, protocol corner cases, and the limits of simulation and static checks.
- Strong scripting and regression automation skills, with disciplined test and configuration management.
- Ability to work independently, review others' work, and explain remaining risks and sign-off evidence clearly.
- UCIe, PCIe Gen6/Gen7, Ethernet PCS/FEC, or 224G SerDes and mixed-signal IP verification.
- Formal model checking, connectivity verification, or power-aware simulation with UPF.
- Embedded processor verification, secure boot, AXI/APB, register models, or firmware-driven testing.
- FPGA prototyping or emulation, silicon bring-up, and reviewed AI-assisted verification workflows.
Ottawa, Canada, is preferred. Hybrid arrangements may be considered based on the candidate and project needs. Clear written communication, independent execution, and collaboration with distributed engineering teams are essential.
Compensation
Compensation will reflect individual experience, technical capability, and the responsibilities of the role. The package will be discussed during the recruitment process.
Why Work With Us
Join an experienced team working on the connectivity challenges behind advanced AI and computing systems. You will have direct technical ownership, close access to architects and implementation specialists, and the opportunity to shape reusable engineering methods for future chiplet programs. We value sound engineering judgment, collaboration, and a sustainable balance between demanding work and life outside it.
Only candidates selected for an interview will be contacted.
