104 jobs for "Firmware Validation Engineer"

Do you love creating elegant solutions to highly complex challenges? Do you intrinsically see the importance in every detail? As part of our Silicon Technologies group, you'll help design and manufacture our next-generation, high-performance, power-efficient processor, system-on-chip (SoC). You'll ensure Apple products and services can seamlessly and efficiently handle the tasks that make them beloved by millions. Joining this group means you'll be responsible for crafting and building the technology that fuels Apple's devices. Together, you and your team will enable our customers to do all the things they love with their devices! Join a team of expert software engineers with diverse backgrounds (graphics, video encoding, video processing, file systems, CPUs and caching, kernel programming, embedded systems) to develop graphics validation software and integrate it into system level test environment.

Description
We're seeking a passionate and skilled Embedded Firmware Engineer to play a pivotal role in delivering the next generation of Apple silicon. In this highly visible position, you'll be at the intersection of Hardware and Software, collaborating closely with logic designers to deeply understand system-level operations and performance requirements for hardware validation.

You will be writing shaders that stress the GPU and cause high bandwidth traffic to and from the memory subsystem. You will use the necessary driver and firmware APIs to compile shaders and prime operations to move data around in the SoC using the GPU threads/SIMD groups. You will understand the different levels of GPU memory hierarchy (Shared, Global, etc.) You will debug SoC software and hardware issues, and perform system level validation.

Preferred Qualifications
5+ years of experience with Pre/Post validation or embedded development
Strong C/C++, Python programming skills
Deep understanding of compute systems, operating systems, and computer architecture
In-depth knowledge and experience in SoC system level validation and debugging of SoC software and hardware issues
SoC DI/DV background - Advantage
Experience in HW-SW integrations - Advantage
Experience with GPU architecture, image processing, memory hierarchies, and compilers- Advantage

Minimum Qualifications
Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field
