Principal Engineer, Firmware Verification Engineering

We need an Firmware verification engineers who understand UFS/eMMC embedded NAND system design and firmware algorithms in order to create a firmware design verification plans and implement them in modern object oriented languages.

• Work closely with the system architects and the firmware team to develop design verification plans, test bench and test cases
• Develop an overall firmware validation strategy including defining validation infrastructure and validation methodology
• Debug the firmware and expose design issues
• Design functional tests required to meet customer needs
• Review SanDisk UFS/eMMC embedded NAND validation requirements and influence future SanDisk product design for debug and test
• Work with customers to understand field bugs and to enhance the validation coverage
• Interface with all key stakeholders to ensure product validation meets customer expectations and needs

Technical and analytical skills required

• Familiar with firmware development, Integration and validation
• Knowledgeable on product and quality standards and relevant host protocols, in particular eMMC and UFS.
