Software Engineer: SoC System Stress Validation
Apple is where individual imaginations gather together, committing to the values that lead to great work. Every new product we build, service we create, or Apple Store experience we deliver is the result of us making each other’s ideas stronger. It’s the diversity of our people and their thinking that inspires the innovation that runs through everything we do. Here, you’ll do more than join something — you’ll add something. Would you like to work on software that runs on every Apple phone, pad, and Mac computer in the world? Join a team of SME embedded software engineers with a diverse set of backgrounds to do system level validation of Apple's next generation SoCs.
Description:
You will leave no stone left unturned for a comprehensive system-level validation of Apple SoCs. You will dive deep into the SoC architecture and become a specialist in our existing SiVal software stack. You will come up with creative ways to test the SoC for all kinds of stress and corner-case scenarios.
Minimum Qualifications:
- Bachelor's degree in EE or CS with 10 years of industry experience.
Key Qualifications:
- Strong software skills in C/C++.
- Familiarity with programming in assembly language.
- Passionate about writing code close to the hardware and debugging.
- Familiarity with computer architecture, memory hierarchies, CPUs, and caching.
- You enjoy the validation mentality: detail-oriented, curious, and persistent.
- Experience in writing code, developing tests, and coming up with strategies for SoC silicon validation is a huge plus.
- Experience in graphics, video codecs, video capture, display mechanisms, and storage technologies is ideal.
- Experience with scripting (Python, Tcl, Perl).
