Senior Remote Embedded Semiconductor Software Engineer

Bright Vision Technologies; Issaquah (WA); On-site; USD 100,000 - 150,000; Full time

Job summary

Bright Vision Technologies is seeking an experienced Embedded Semiconductor Engineer to design software tooling, firmware, and infrastructure that support semiconductor design, verification, manufacturing, and post-silicon validation.

In this role you will partner with hardware engineers and EDA teams to build software that accelerates silicon development cycles and improves yield, performance, and quality.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field.
• Six or more years of software engineering experience in semiconductor environments.
• Strong programming skills in C, C++, and Python.
• Hands-on experience with EDA, verification, or post-silicon validation workflows.
• Solid understanding of hardware-software interaction at a low level.
• Experience building large-scale compute infrastructure (grid, cloud, HPC).
• Strong scripting and automation skills.
• Experience with data pipelines for design or characterization data.
• Excellent debugging and troubleshooting skills.
• Strong communication and documentation skills.

Responsibilities

• Design and build software tooling that accelerates semiconductor design and verification workflows.
• Develop firmware and low-level software interacting directly with silicon, including drivers and BSPs.
• Build infrastructure to support large-scale EDA tool execution on compute farms and cloud platforms.
• Develop post-silicon validation tooling, including high-throughput test orchestration, programmable stimulus generation, and result aggregation systems that scale across many parts and many test environments.
• Build data pipelines for design, verification, and characterization data, supporting downstream analytics and ML.
• Implement debug tooling and diagnostic infrastructure for hardware bring-up and silicon characterization, giving engineers fast feedback loops on the silicon-software interface during critical validation windows.
• Partner with hardware engineers to translate hardware-specific requirements into clean software designs.
• Optimize software for performance and scalability in compute-intensive semiconductor workflows.
• Lead architecture and code reviews that span the software-hardware boundary.
• Contribute to internal libraries and tooling shared across silicon design teams.
• Maintain comprehensive, current technical documentation for onboarding and support.
