Software Engineers conduct or participate in multidisciplinary research and collaborate with design, layout and/or hardware engineers in the design, development, and utilization of productivity enhancement layout tools and design rule checkers, electronic data processing systems software.
Determines computer user needs, advises hardware designers on machine characteristics that affect software systems such as storage capacity, processing speed, and input/output requirements, designs and develops compilers and assemblers, utility programs, and operating systems.
Responds to customer/client requests or events as they occur.
Develops solutions to problems utilizing formal education, judgement and formal software process.
Your responsibilities will include but not be limited to:
Study newest Intel hardware and platform features and track the enabling status of those features in silicon, low-level firmware/software, OS (e.g. Windows /Linux/VMware)
Deep dive and root cause silicon enabling and system integration issues to sub system/source code level and drive sightings into closure by proactive physical work and/or coordination with relevant stakeholders on defect duplication and investigation.
Closely collaborate with Intel silicon enabling, firmware development, and various components teams including storage, network, power & performance, I/O and silicon debug teams to troubleshoot and debug cross-discipline and complex integration issues on server platforms
Define and drive the system debug process implementation and ingredient owner engagement/alignment.
Contribute to the definition of new platforms with software architecture and development teams, support platform bring-up activities, review designs and code changes
Contribute to validation team on improving test plan/method to validate features and verify fixes
Qualifications:
This job is reserved for the person who is always passionate to putting new technology into practice in the fastest manner, exploring all possible alternatives for better solution, and pursuing constant improvement on test efficiency and coverage.
