Software Engineer - SoC Level Validation Engineer joins the Silicon Technologies group to help design and manufacture next-generation, high-performance, power-efficient processors and system-on-chips. This role involves writing SoC and CPU directed and random tests, debugging issues pre-silicon and post-silicon, and developing the system-level software platform. The engineer will lead software development and execution plans for SoC projects while collaborating with designers and architects to achieve validation goals. Key responsibilities include identifying corner-case hardware bugs using a bare metal system level software suite. Required skills include embedded programming, C/C++, and Assembly. Preferred qualifications involve knowledge of micro-architecture, memory hierarchy, interrupts, DMA, clock and power gating, and experience with hardware and software debug tools, methods, and scopes to ensure high-quality functional products.

What you'll do

  • Write SoC and CPU directed and random tests.
  • Debug hardware issues in both pre-silicon and post-silicon environments.
  • Develop and maintain the system-level software platform.
  • Lead software development and execution plans for SoC projects.
  • Work with designers and architects to achieve specific validation goals.
  • Develop validation strategies based on product needs with other teams.

What we're looking for

  • BS in EE or CS.
  • 10 years of experience.
  • Embedded programming experience.
  • SOC and CPU knowledge including micro-architecture, memory hierarchy, interrupt, DMA, clock and power gating (preferred).
