Karnataka’s capital Bengaluru is India’s main semiconductor and electronics hub. Expect office-based work in the metro tech corridors; commute and housing vary widely by neighborhood.
Karnataka is a state in the southwestern coast of India. It was formed as Mysore State on 1 November 1956, with the passage of the States Reorganisation Act, and renamed Karnataka in 1973. The state is bordered by the Lakshadweep Sea to the west, Goa to the northwest, Maharashtra to the north, Telangana to the northeast, Andhra Pradesh to the east, Tamil Nadu to the southeast, and Kerala to the so

Build the skills for this role
Prioritize SystemVerilog/UVM, constrained-random and coverage-driven verification, assertion-based checks, waveform debug, and familiarity with CPU/SoC concepts (caches, interconnects, privilege modes). RISC-V ISA knowledge is a strong differentiator for SiFive-style work.
Expect deep DV fundamentals: UVM components, scoreboarding, coverage closure, race/debug stories, and architecture-aware corner cases. Be ready to walk through a past block you verified end-to-end and how you drove sign-off quality at staff scope.
Strong fit if you already lead verification on complex RTL (CPU, interconnect, or large IP), enjoy methodology and mentorship, and want on-site work in Bengaluru’s chip ecosystem with a RISC-V-focused employer.
