工作职责
Responsible for firmware development and feature enablement in the Infinity Fabric interconnect across all AMD products, including design, documentation, unit testing and debug for pre and post silicon support.
Enhancing python-based tools that process large amounts of complex data to produce a hardware initialization binary.
Develop tools and infrastructure that help in the collection of the initialization data in either Python or C/C++.
Work closely with architects and other IP leads to determine firmware scope and implementation details to meet firmware deliverables schedules and milestones.
Perform unit and integration test, engage with various teams to provide debug support in the emulation, simulation, and post-silicon environment.
Be an active participant in design and code reviews.
Work with internal and external teams to ensure the highest level of quality and satisfaction throughout the firmware lifecycle.
优先资格
+ years of proven experience in firmware development cycle, integration, and good understanding of verification/validation for pre and post silicon for SoC designs.
Expertise in low-level C programming, software optimization techniques, and debugging for embedded systems.
Strong in Python and Linux scripting applied to data parsing and processing.
Strong background in computer architecture with familiarity in memory interleaving, system memory maps and NUMA domain concepts.
Experience in board, processor/ASIC bring-up and testing platforms (Simulation and/or Emulation).
Experience in hardware/software interfaces and methodically debugging sophisticated issues at the IP, subsystem and/or system level using source code debuggers and other system debug tools.
Experience with source control systems including git/gerrit.
Excellent written, verbal communication, and presentation skills.
Must be well-organized, technically oriented, and a self-starter with a demonstrated ability to support multiple products, work collaboratively, and coordinate activities with geographically distributed technical teams.
