Job Details:Job Description: Job Description Intel is seeking a Design Verification Manager for the Silicon Chassis team. In this player-coach role, you will lead a high-autonomy verification team while staying technically deep, driving verification strategy and hands-on execution for next-generation interconnect and coherent fabric IP. You will build and scale a team with a startup operating model inside Intel, owning everything from architecture trade-offs through silicon signoff. This role requires 20+ years of accumulated expertise in coherent interconnects, processor microarchitecture, memory hierarchies, and die-to-die communication, combined with a proven ability to attract, develop, and ship through strong technical teams. AI-assisted workflows are part of everyday development here.Responsibilities - Lead, build, and technically mentor a verification team operating with high autonomy; set clear goals, remove blockers, drive accountability, and maintain a flat, execution-focused culture - Own end-to-end verification strategy across coherent interconnect IP, protocol bridges, and fabric subsystems from architecture engagement through coverage closure and silicon signoff - Stay hands-on: review testplans, debug critical protocol issues, make architecture-level verification calls, and write code when it unblocks the team - Drive verification methodology for cache coherency protocols, memory ordering models, and multi-die link-layer transports; ensure coverage models capture real system corner cases - Collaborate directly with architecture, RTL design, physical design, and post-silicon teams; resolve cross-team technical conflicts quickly and with data - Establish delivery cadence, risk frameworks, and quality metrics that give the team and stakeholders predictable visibility into milestone health - Recruit and develop senior technical talent; build a bench that can independently own complex IP verification with minimal oversight - Evaluate and integrate emerging verification approaches including formal, emulation, and ML-driven stimulus generation into a unified closure strategyQualifications:Minimum Qualifications - BS/MS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field, with 20+ years of progressive experience in design verification and verification leadership - Deep expertise in cache coherence protocols and memory consistency models (MOESI/MESI variants, directory-based and snoop-filter coherence, ordering rules across agents); hands-on experience verifying coherent fabrics or CPU cache subsystems - Strong architectural understanding of modern CPU microarchitectures, multi-level memory hierarchies, and system-level address translation (MMU/IOMMU) - Proven experience with chiplet-scale and die-to-die interconnects (UCIe, CXL, or proprietary D2D links), including link-layer credit management, retry, and flit-level protocol verification - Broad protocol fluency across AMBA CHI, ACE, AXI, PCIe/CXL, and related on-die and off-die fabrics - Strong background in simulation and formal verification methodologies including UVM, SVA, and co-simulation; working knowledge of emulation-based verification approaches - Hands-on coding proficiency in SystemVerilog/UVM, C/C++, and Python; comfort using AI-assisted development tools as part of everyday workflow - 5+ years demonstrated success building, leading, and scaling verification teams; track record of shipping high-quality silicon on predictable schedules - Excellent communication skills; able to operate with minimal direction, make fast decisions with incomplete data, and drive a team that does the same Preferred Qualifications - Experience leading geographically distributed teams with a lean, high-trust operating model - Prior exposure to network-on-chip architectures, QoS arbitration schemes, and fabric-level power management verification - Background in formal verification tools (JasperGold, VC Formal) applied to coherence and protocol checking at scale - Familiarity with RTL design, physical design constraints, and CAD flows; enough to make architecture-level trade-offs that account for implementation cost - Track record of building verification IP or methodology that shipped across multiple product generations Job Type:Experienced HireShift:Shift 1 (India)Primary Location: India, BangaloreAdditional Locations:Business group:The Central Engineering Group (CEG) is Intel's data-driven organization that builds scalable engineering solutions across three pillars: Product Enablement (IP, tools, and methodologies), Custom ASIC (leveraging existing IP for custom silicon), and Foundry Enablement (supporting top customers and validating technologies). The team focuses on customer-driven, end-to-end solutions with short development cycles to deliver measurable business impact across Intel's product and foundry businesses.Posting Statement:All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, religious creed, sex, national origin, ancestry, age, physical or mental disability, medical condition, genetic information, military and veteran status, marital status, pregnancy, gender, gender expression, gender identity, sexual orientation, or any other characteristic protected by local law, regulation, or ordinance.Position of TrustThis role is a Position of Trust.
