Engineer, Firmware Verification Engineering

Job Description
As a Staff Engineer in Firmware Verification Engineering, you will design and implement test cases for specific FW feature sets and verify product functionality and robustness across different scenarios, with a focus on white-box testing methodologies. You will work hand in hand with a product development team to understand product architecture, and internal features, and ensure product testability is considered throughout the design phase. As the product progresses, you will contribute to test strategy, work on test deployment, and help in performing failure analysis to debug FW/test issues to harden product FW. You are an independent problem solver with excellent communication skills who can work effectively as part of a cross-functional team. You have good proficiency in C and Python and are familiar with the PCIe/NVMe specs.
ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:
Own test modules through all phases of development:
from analyzing requirements, writing test plans, conducting reviews, and implementing tests, to performing failure analysis and driving test deployment in a production environment.
Collaborate with the FW team on feature design reviews to identify key risk areas and create a comprehensive test strategy to validate the feature.
Develop tests to thoroughly validate FW features as part of a world-class validation team.
Work on validation initiatives with our internal partners to improve testing capability, efficiency, and robustness, including the development and deployment of new test infrastructure and automation.
Support automated testing on PCIe/NVMe storage products with FW/test builds and triage failures effectively to the root cause, whether it is a product, tests, infrastructure, automation, or other.
Participate in bug swarm meetings. Seek to understand problems, propose effective design-of-experiment to debug to root cause, and create new solutions/tests that succinctly resolve, isolate, and validate.
