Do engineers who do IC design verification in Zheku, the chip company of OPPO, work overtime long? What is the salary?

It's basically 995 when you're busy. For example, the front-end number is about 20,000-25,000 a month before tax, and there are generally more than 50 at the end of the year. Flexible working system, overtime is to work overtime on Sunday when you are busy and have nothing to do when you are free. The team leader leads the team to eat chicken at work.

The verification engineer designs and implements the verification environment according to the chip specification, and uses the corresponding verification language, verification tools and verification methods to simulate and verify the functions of the chip (RTL implementation) before the chip production, so as to determine whether the designed functions have realized the functions described in the specification, whether the designed functions are correct and whether the risks have been completely released.

In short, "verification" is to "find fault" with the designed chip according to its requirements and specifications.

For students who don't know the whole process of chip design, you can learn about the chip design process first.

As we all know, streaming in chip design is very expensive. We can't wait until the end of streaming media to find the problem, so the money will go to Shui Piao. Some small companies may go bankrupt because of a failed streaming, so we have to eliminate all kinds of bugs before streaming. This is the value of verification, so verification engineers are also the most positions in IC design enterprises.

The market prospect is great:

The ratio of general verification to front-end design is 3: 1. Verification engineer is also the position with the greatest demand for recruitment, and the demand is very large.

Compared with the front-end design and back-end design of integrated circuit design, the relative threshold of integrated circuit verification post is still low. Undergraduates can also find famous enterprises through systematic training and study. For students who change careers, verification is a very good choice. And the salary of the verification engineer is also very high.
