Ideal candidate

Hands-on systems-minded engineer who loves owning complex hardware end-to-end and stretching across domains to make first-party silicon work with firmware and software teams.

Requirements

• Have experience in SoC architecture, RTL design, and subsystem or full-chip integration, with hands-on ownership through implementation and silicon bring-up
• Are familiar with Arm processor subsystems, including Cortex-M and Cortex-A, and AMBA protocols and interconnects such as AXI and APB
• Understand PCIe protocols and have experience configuring, integrating, and debugging controller IP
• Have experience integrating high-speed I/O, including SerDes/PHY interfaces and die-to-die links
• Have experience working directly with third-party IP vendors to evaluate technical fit, communicate requirements, and drive integration and debug issues to resolution
• Understand reset and boot architecture and the interactions between hardware, firmware, and software during initialization and recovery
• Have experience designing for debug, test, and security, and can reason about how these requirements affect the broader system
• Are comfortable writing and debugging Verilog/SystemVerilog and building scripts or tools to make integration work more efficient and reliable
