Job Requirements

Driver Development & Feature Engineering

- Design, implement, and optimize firmware-level device drivers for LPDDR5/6 DRAM controllers and associated memory subsystems; memory interconnects are proprietary to the platform — no prerequisite knowledge of specific interconnect protocols required.
- Develop and enhance performance monitoring software to track memory controller metrics, bandwidth utilization, latency profiles, and hardware performance counters.
- Develop and enhance drivers for memory-mapped I/O, DMA engines, cache controllers, and related peripherals.
- Write clean, maintainable, and well-documented driver code in Python, C, and Rust (in order of priority).
- Implement register-level programming from hardware specifications and datasheets.
- Optimize driver performance for latency, throughput, and power across target SoC/FPGA platforms.

Integration & Bringup

- Integrate device drivers with firmware stacks, bootloaders, and RTOS/bare-metal environments.
- Support hardware bringup activities; collaborate with hardware design and ASIC teams during bring-up phases.
- Port or adapt drivers across different SoC platforms and board configurations.

Testing & Validation





- Design and execute comprehensive driver test plans covering functional correctness, stress, boundary conditions, and negative scenarios.
- Develop Python-based test automation scripts and frameworks for driver validation.
- Use hardware debug tools such as JTAG debuggers, logic analyzers, and oscilloscopes to validate signal integrity and protocol compliance.
- Write unit tests and integration tests; contribute to CI/CD pipelines for firmware.

Root Cause Analysis & Debugging

- Independently investigate and resolve complex driver-level bugs including memory access faults, data corruption, race conditions, and timing violations.
- Analyze memory dumps, trace logs, and register states to isolate root causes.
- Document root-cause findings and corrective actions clearly for cross-functional teams.

Documentation & Collaboration

- Produce thorough design documents, driver interface specifications, and API documentation.
- Read and interpret hardware datasheets, register maps, timing diagrams, and JEDEC LPDDR5/6 specifications independently.
- Collaborate with hardware engineers, system architects, and firmware teams to define and refine driver requirements.
