memory traffic to maximize bandwidth and stress.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:
Code, debug, and optimize functional and stress tests for memory subsystem, virtualization, and system-on-chip hardware IP
Develop diagnostic tests to bring-up and validate HW features on pre-silicon environment (HW emulators) and post-silicon systems (HW silicon and platform)
Identify and resolve chip, board, and firmware issues
Debug and root cause HW and SW issues, ensure high quality software engineering and hardware coverage bar
Identify and drive improvements to framework and test architectures to improve HW coverage, debuggability, and quality
PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:
Experience in diagnostic, device driver or firmware/embedded SW development
Ability to closely interact with HW designers/architects and internal validation teams to solve functional HW/SW issues and support engineers for production failures/FA
Experience in system software development on Linux
Experience working with large-scale software development projects and understanding of PC architecture
Proficient in C/C++ object-oriented programming
Experience in system-level verification and debugging
Experience with source control systems (git, svn)
