Firmware verification Engineer

Summary:
Firmware verification Engineer who is responsible for verifying Bootcode/firmware in Simulation/Emulation environments, proficient in Linux/Unix/Shell Scripting, exposure to System Verilog and ability debug Firmware!

Job Duties:

• Collaborate with architects, hardware engineers, and firmware engineers to understand the new features to be verified

• Perform simulations, analyse results, and debug issues related to Firmware/Boot
  o Debug test failures to determine the root cause; work with RTL and firmware engineers to resolve design defects and correct any test issues

• Estimate the time required to write the new feature tests and any required changes to the test environment

• Build the directed and random verification tests

• Analyse and enhance legacy test plans to accommodate new Design for Debug feature developments

• First level triaging of Firmware/Debugging of issues arising in Simulation/Emulation testing, Developing test plans and execute test cases to enhance Firmware test coverage.

• Track test results, create benchmarks, perform profiling and improve quality of the firmware by covering all the corner cases

• Attend weekly meetings, status communication, presentations.

• 5+ years of experience in Firmware/Bootrom Validation in Simulation/Emulation environments
