Job Title

Senior Engineer, Embedded Software

Role Summary

Work on system integration, validation, and post-silicon bring-up for complex SoCs. The role focuses on system-level test development, debugging across hardware/firmware/drivers, and improving automated regression frameworks.

Collaborate with design, firmware, software, and emulation teams to validate functionality, performance, and power modes, and to close defects to silicon release.

Experience Level

Senior; typically 4–7 years of experience in system validation, silicon bring-up, or post-silicon debug for complex SoCs.

Responsibilities

Key responsibilities include validation planning, test development, debugging, and automation.

• Develop and execute system integration and validation plans for complex SoCs.
• Design and implement system-level test cases covering functionality, edge cases, performance, and power mode transitions.
• Perform debugging and root-cause analysis across hardware, firmware, and drivers using debug tools, waveform analysis, and logs.
• Coordinate with design, software, and emulation/virtual platform teams to reproduce and resolve issues.
• Develop and maintain automation frameworks for multi-platform regression testing.
• Document technical findings and communicate results to engineers and stakeholders.

Requirements

Must-have technical skills and experience.

• 4–7 years experience in system validation, silicon bring-up, or post-silicon debug for complex SoCs.
• Proficiency with GCC toolchains and embedded debug tools/utilities (examples: Segger, OpenOCD); experience with Git or similar version control.
• Skilled in Python or similar scripting languages for automation and analysis.
• Strong debugging and root-cause analysis skills spanning hardware, firmware, and drivers.
