AST SpaceMobile is building the first and only global cellular broadband network in space to operate directly with standard, unmodified mobile devices based on our extensive IP and patent portfolio and designed for both commercial and government applications. Our engineers and space scientists are on a mission to eliminate the connectivity gaps faced by today’s five billion mobile subscribers and finally bring broadband to the billions who remain unconnected. Position Overview We are seeking a Senior FPGA Verification Engineer with 4–8 years of experience to design, develop, and execute comprehensive verification strategies for complex FPGA designs. This role requires strong hands-on expertise in SystemVerilog and UVM, testbench architecture, and cross-functional collaboration with design and system teams. Key Responsibilities: Develop and maintain SystemVerilog/UVM-based verification environments for FPGA block-level and top-level designs Create and execute verification plans, directed and constrained-random test scenarios, assertions, and functional coverage Perform simulation-based verification of FPGA designs using industry-standard simulators Drive debug and root-cause analysis of functional issues and work closely with FPGA RTL designers Integrate and maintain VIPs, scoreboards, checkers, and reference models Support FPGA bring-up, validation, and debug activities on FPGA platforms and evaluation boards Review FPGA RTL, verification code, and test plans to ensure quality and completeness Mentor junior engineers and contribute to FPGA verification best practices Support regression runs, coverage closure, and release signoff Qualifications Education: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field Experience: 4–8 years of hands-on experience in functional verification Preferred Qualifications: Familiarity with cadence tools like Xcelium Familiarity with Xilinx Vivado Experience with hardware/software co-verification Knowledge of high-speed interfaces (AXI, AXI‑Stream, DDR, SPI) Soft Skills: Strong analytical and debugging skills Ability to work effectively in cross-functional teams Excellent written and verbal communication skills Self-driven with the ability to own verification tasks end-to-end High attention to detail and commitment to quality Technology Stack: Languages: SystemVerilog, Verilog, VHDL (working knowledge) Verification Methodology: UVM Simulation Tools: Xcelium, Questa, VCS FPGA Tools: Xilinx Vivado Debug Tools: SimVision Scripting: Python, Tcl, Shell Version Control: Git Physical Requirements Ability to work in a standard office environment Ability to use a computer for extended periods Occasional lab work for FPGA bring-up and debug This job description may not be inclusive to the duties and responsibilities listed. Additional tasks may be assigned to the employee from time to time or the scope of the job may change as needed by business demands .

Here's how to pick the right one and stand out in your application.

That number is real. WorkMundi's database shows 144,883 open engineer roles across the world. India has the most with 31,687 jobs, followed by the United States with 30,084. If you just finished reading one job ad and felt paralyzed by choice, you're not alone—but this scale is actually an advantage. It means you can afford to be selective.
Start by geography and language. The majority of engineer ads—117,837 of them—have the job posting text written in English. Use that as one filter, but remember: the ad text language tells you nothing about whether the role actually requires you to speak English day-to-day. Read the job description carefully. Then check which countries have the volume you're targeting. Singapore, Poland, and Australia round out the top five after India and the US.
Next, learn who's hiring. Accenture has posted 2,801 engineer roles. andurilindustries, speechify, and jobgether are also actively recruiting. If you're applying to one of these names, research their hiring patterns and interview style before you apply. That homework pays off.
When you interview, expect the question every engineer hears: 'Tell me about a time you had to debug a problem that wasn't in your job description.' Have a specific story ready—not a general one. Name the tools, the deadline pressure, and what you learned. Hiring managers listen for whether you see problem-solving as part of the role itself, not a favour.
