Key Qualifications
•This position is for a validation role with 10+ years of experience. Looking for someone who is hands-on in SoC validation and leads PnP & hardware/software testing and debugging:
•Expertise in Power and Performance characterization of SoC using Pre-Si & Post-Si tooling. Hands-on experience with Pre-Si tools like Synopsys Primetime Power Analysis and Post-Si tools like National Instruments Data Acquisition (NiDAQ) is required.
•Experience in C/C++ based embedded software development for bare metal, RTOS and Linux.
•Experience in ARM CPU, AMBA SoC architecture, boot flows, CPU & SoC initialization.
•Background in silicon bring-up and board debug
•Familiarity with IO protocols: MIPI, PCIe, USB, I2C, SPMI, UART, GPIO
•Understanding of common data structures, algorithms, Operating Systems concepts, and multi-threaded programming
•Experience with scripting languages such as Python, bash
Daily Tasks:
•Cross-Correlate Power estimation/measurements with the Architectural Specifications and drive HW/SW optimizations to meet the power targets.
•Lead and debug failures with multi-functional partner teams like: Software/Firmware, System Hardware and Silicon teams. Work with experts from cross functional teams to understand SoC and system behavior: OS kernel/driver, Silicon Validation (using unit-level IP & SoC tests), SoC IP integration and verification, FPGA Prototyping and Emulation (Palladium/ZeBu/Veloce), Systems Integration, board debug.
•Collaborate across architecture, design, and software teams to develop test plans. Debug and correlate silicon data. Create validation test plans, ensuring all key features are covered.
•Write low-level driver code as RTOS to configure and run various sub-systems (e.g. Camera, display, video encoders/decoders, PCIe, USB, machine learning etc). Bring up pre-Si prototypes and drive validation of functional & PnP features using bare-metal/RTOS workloads.
•Debug and bring-up of low power SOCs and lead validation testing of system hardware design. Efficiently narrow down failures from system-level to subsystem- and block-level using a range of debug tools and techniques (e.g. RTL Waveforms, Lauterbach, Transaction-level models) and lab equipment like Logic Analyzers & Scopes.
