Software Development Engineer (Post-Silicon Validation, FCH IPs (I2C/I3C/UART/SATA/SPI/eSPI/ACPI), Server RAS, DDR/PCIe, SoC)_

Project Description:

We are looking for an experienced engineer with an obsession for system software and computer architecture. As part of the role, this engineer will work closely with other diagnostics engineers, developers, and architects across various teams in designing and implementing diagnostics system software that spans across pre-silicon and post-silicon for all client SoCs.

Responsibilities:

* Design, develop, and validate post-silicon software solutions for server platforms, ensuring reliable system functionality and performance.

* Develop and execute validation tests for FCH IPs (I2C, I3C, UART, SATA, SPI, eSPI, ACPI) and debug hardware-software integration issues.

* Perform RAS validation, including DDR and PCIe error injection, detection, recovery, and analysis of MCA, ECC, CRC, DRAM scrubbers, and PCIe AER scenarios.

* Collaborate with firmware, BIOS, hardware, and architecture teams to troubleshoot complex platform issues and drive root cause analysis.

* Analyze system behavior across x86 architecture, OS internals, SoC, chipsets, and firmware to optimize platform stability, reliability, and performance.

Mandatory Skills Description:

• Experience range: 6- 9 years

• Expertise in C++ programming

• Experience with post-silicon development and validation

• Strong understanding of FCH IPs including I2C, I3C, UART, SATA, SPI, eSPI, ACPI

• Familiarity with server RAS architecture and firmware flows

• Experience in DDR/PCIe error injection, detection, and recovery

• Solid grasp of Machine Check Architecture (MCA), ECC, CRC, DRAM scrubbers, PCIe AER, etc.

• Knowledge of PC hardware, SoC, chipsets, graphics cards, BIOS, and firmware

Nice-to-Have Skills Description:

• Understanding of x86 and computer architecture

• Insight into OS internals
