THE ROLE:

Client is looking for a software/firmware developer to join the team and help develop pre-OS BIOS firmware and silicon initialization code. As part of the role, the BIOS engineer will work closely with other firmware developers and architects in designing and implementing X86 and/or ARM firmware that spans pre- and post-silicon for all Client business units.

THE PERSON:

Passionate about firmware development on bare-metal or close to bare-metal environment. Need strong problem-solving skills, with a collaborative can-do attitude. Strong knowledge of computer architecture and low-level programming in C

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:

Developing, porting, debugging, and documenting core firmware support for various DRAM technologies including DDR4, LPDDR4/4x, DDR5, LPDDR5/5x RDIMM, LRDIMM, 3DS, etc., on Client Desktop, Mobile, and Enterprise SoCs.

Supporting emulation/simulation teams during pre-silicon phase to validate memory hardware and firmware.

Working closely with hardware validation teams to optimize memory signal integrity, achieve highest possible performance and robust feature support.

Assist memory validation teams with debug from initial power-on to achieve full functionality of all features in a timely manner.

Developing custom memory firmware features for internal and external customers.

Engage with technical leads to understand firmware scope and work on implementation to meet schedules and milestones.

Work with internal and external teams to ensure highest level of quality and satisfaction throughout firmware lifecycle.

Must be well-organized, technically oriented, and a self-starter with a demonstrated ability to work collaboratively and coordinate activities with geographically distributed technical teams.

Desire to work and succeed on fast-paced and highly dynamic environments
