Role Posting Log in to save

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 breaking Apple Silicon using a bare metal system level software suite that runs mostly post-silicon to identify corner-case hardware bugs. Key responsibilities include writing SoC and CPU directed and random tests, debugging issues pre-silicon and post-silicon, and developing the system-level software platform. The candidate will lead software development and execution plans while collaborating with designers and architects on validation goals. Required skills include embedded programming, C/C++, Assembly, and experience with hardware and software debug tools, scopes, and micro-architecture. The work focuses on ensuring high-quality functional products by validating complex algorithms and power-down blocks.
