Principal Firmware Engineer

You will be involved with all phases of product development including pre-silicon, post-silicon, and platform deployment in the datacenter. You will collaborate with platform architects, firmware architects, program management and component dev teams for understanding the technical depth of the new features and defining the Test plans/cases, validation Frameworks/Tools/methodology for End-to-end feature readiness You will define the Soc and platform validation methodology in terms of required test cases, faster debugging/triaging, reducing manual efforts, with enhanced coverage of concurrent/deployment scenarios You will be involved in debugging and solving complex hardware/firmware interface issues. You will own coordination, Integration, validation (including validation environment), and debugging of system software comprising of different domains within server architecture (such as SoC FWs, BIOS, BMC etc.) You will architect and/or submit requirements to define stimulus, test content, and frameworks that will be utilized to conduct testing and establish coverage. You will identify and address inefficiencies and gaps in architecture, testing, execution, etc. You will mentor, guide, and help peers and other team members. Ability to see system level “big picture” to validate that the integrated firmware/system software aligns to architectural goals of product. Bachelor's or higher in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electronics Engineering, or similar. 15+ years of working experience in large scale system design & architecture, development, testing, and release and performance tuning. Strong problem solving, debugging, and troubleshooting skills. Hands on experience in programming in Python or C or C++ Experience with Platform initialization, Board support package (UEFI/U-Boot), integration, low level drivers for peripherals such as PCIe, I2C, eMMC, SPI, USB, UARTs as well as Memory Management, Scheduling, Interrupts, and multi-threading. Excellent debugging and troubleshooting skills with the aim to become point-of-contact for platform level issues. Ensure systematic closure of issues for subsequent releases. Demonstrated experience of leading big initiatives spanning multiple teams and organizations and leveraging deep domain expertise to influence product roadmap. Passionate about exploring and deploying noble methods to improve coverage, debugging, and efficiency of our FW releases.
