Key job responsibilities
Provide technical leadership in developing high assurance software systems.
Develop embedded software test platforms using Rust, and integrate with third party libraries to verify end to end high assurance 400G+ solutions.
Develop low level drivers for ARM and RISC-V targets, Linux drivers and kernel modules, business logic, and scalable software solutions to interoperate with AWS services.
Lead design and system engineers to perform verification and validation of certification requirements.
Lead design meetings to plan development and review peer designs.
Test/verify new technologies to improve the customer experience and add features.
Mentor and develop peer and junior engineers.
A day in the life
You will be a technical leader on a cross-functional team of hardware and software developers, writing embedded software in Rust to interact with custom hardware. You will help set and maintain the standard for software test/verification, understanding and planning for the impact of team decisions on software architecture in team meetings, design reviews, and through written documents. You will lead architectural discussions, and strategic planning meetings.
You will use and develop CI/CD pipelines to automatically run your own unit tests, and hardware in the loop tests. You help deploy embedded software onto hardware targets and help debug issues that come along in RTL, hardware, or software. You will develop and document software sub-systems and components in Rust, you will coordinate with the team daily to make design decisions, resolve blockers, and review code.
You will demonstrate a high standard, help prioritize development activities and actively mentor other engineers.
