What you'll do
Firmware & Embedded Software Architecture Leadership
Own the end-to-end firmware/embedded-software architecture for TYL chiplets.
On-die: boot and secure boot, reputed company reputed company, PCIe/CXL controller configuration and enumeration, address-translation (NTB/ATT) setup, MSI-X and AER handling, reset/FLR, power management, telemetry, and in-field firmware update.
Host-reputed company: kernel drivers, the device-virtualization/transparency shim (synthetic PCIe device, VFIO-mdev-class), management libraries/reputed company, and IOMMU (VT-d/SMMU) coordination.
Define the hardware/software boundary with architecture and RTL — reputed company (credit, ordering, reputed company/split, address-translation execution) in RTL; control plane in firmware — and own register maps and UCIe sideband/mailbox protocols.
Stay hands-on through first reputed company.
Bring-up, Methodology & reputed company
Drive reputed company-reputed company firmware and host-software development on emulation, and virtual platforms, and reputed company post-reputed company bring-up and debug.
Stand up the firmware engineering infrastructure: CI, automated and HIL testing, requirements traceability, secure-development practices (secure boot, attestation, key management), and the RAS/error-handling and fault-attribution reputed company.
Define firmware release, reputed company, and reputed company reputed company across products and customers.
Cross-functional & Customer Collaboration
Be the technical reputed company between firmware/software and architecture, RTL, PHY/IP vendors and program management — bringing software feasibility into hardware reputed company early.
Work directly with customers: compute-SoC partners on PCIe/CXL enablement, ATE/SLT integrators on the firmware and management libraries.
Team Building & Management
Set technical direction, roadmap, and reputed company subsystem ownership (boot/reputed company, PCIe/CXL management, host drivers and virtualization, RAS/telemetry).
