Firmware Engineer II — DDR5 & Bare-Metal Systems

Cadence; Austin (TX); Vor Ort; USD 110.000 - 150.000; Vollzeit

Zusammenfassung

Cadence in Austin, TX is seeking a firmware engineer to develop DDR5 PHY firmware for microcontrollers and to implement high‑speed memory interfaces.

You will write C bare‑metal code, collaborate with hardware designers to co-create training algorithms, perform RTL‑based simulations and bring‑up boards. Experience with Verilog, EDA tools, and scripting languages is valued as you help advance silicon verification.

Qualifikationen

• Experience developing bare-metal firmware for high-speed memory interfaces.
• Strong C programming skills for embedded software development.
• Familiarity with RTL simulations and hardware‑software co‑verification.

Aufgaben

• Develop firmware for DDR5 PHY using microcontrollers.
• Develop firmware in C typically involving bare‑metal programming and low‑level APIs on microcontrollers.
• Collaborate with hardware designers and memory subsystem architects to derive training algorithms and implement them.
• Collaborate with the verification team to deduce a firmware‑hardware co‑verification plan.
• Develop and debug firmware in RTL based hardware simulations (C + Verilog simulations).
• Develop and debug on silicon bring‑up boards.
