Software Engineer – Board Bring-up & Diagnostics
Bring‑up software is used by hardware designers early in the development cycle (proto stage) to accelerate the delivery of working boards to the software development team. The team develops and integrates low‑level device drivers, in‑house utilities, and third‑party components into a scripting environment. Close collaboration with hardware and software teams is necessary to ensure maximum test coverage and code reuse. Diagnostics software verifies and stresses the product in a lab environment as part of Design Verification Tests (DVT) in accordance with product specifications. Diagnostics leverage subsets of the bring‑up software to create test code embedded in factory test. These tools are a key component of the end‑to‑end test strategy, helping to drive high test coverage and debug capability while reducing test cost.
How You Will Contribute And What You Will Learn
* Design and develop HW bring‑up software for a current product in the ION high‑speed data program.
* Evolve bring‑up software toward diagnostics tools.
* Develop regression tests to verify diagnostics tools.
* Contribute to end‑to‑end reuse from HW bring‑up in production diagnostics.
* Document the coded diagnostics tools.
