Principal Firmware Engineer

Architect and develop SoC validation firmware and framework solution that enable multiple teams like design verification, silicon validation, firmware development and manufacturing teams to test IP and SoC features. Enable debug features and integration and enabling of debug infrastructure. Lead and drive root cause analysis of complex silicon issue debug spanning RTL and firmware. Technically Lead a small team of experience and high motivated engineers in delivering products Architecture and development of specific IP level firmware libraries . Defining the boot flow sequences for initial bring up (Silicon initialization, memory training..) and leading early silicon bring up and enabling of manufacturing . Collaborate with SoC architects to influence hardware features for usability , debuggability . Collaborating with Silicon validation teams to root cause hardware and firmware issues . Collaborate with cross Geo teams and drive program execution and deliver Products Doctorate in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field AND 3+ years technical engineering experience OR Master's Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field AND 6+ years technical engineering experience OR Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related field AND 8+ years technical engineering experience OR equivalent experience. Firmware architect with 15+ years of industry experience with 5+ years in defining and driving the SoC architecture particularly server class SoC's. Experience in SoC architecture particularly ARM based SoC micro architecture(ARM v8/v9), firmware design, design verification. Silicon bringup and post silicon validation Experience Experience in a few IP level silicon firmware library development (e.g PCIe, CXL, GIC, Interrupt controller, security processors, IOMMU, SMMU ) . SoC debug expertise and experience and experience in using tools like JTAG ARMDS, Lauterbach TRACE32 Experience in ATE environment and initial wafer bring up is desirable and a good knowledge of Platform, security (trust Zones etc)firmware Understanding of OS Linux Windows driver development is desirable Experience in leading a small team of engineers is desirable
