• Familiarity with JTAG-based debuggers for debugging at transaction and process levels.
• Ability to analyze and debug complex applications involving multiple threads, MMUs, interrupts, and IPC mechanisms.
• Proficiency in using GCC toolchains and GDB for embedded software development and debugging.
• Experience in investigating and resolving issues related to low-speed IO drivers (e.g., UART, GPIO, SPI, I2C).
• Familiarity with IO protocols such as Gigabit Ethernet, PCIe, CPHY, MPHY, and experience in debugging their drivers.
• Experience with device trees, U-Boot, and operating systems for hardware configuration management.
• Knowledge of secure boot processes and their debugging.

Responsibilities

• Develop test software for validating automotive SoC solutions.
• Build validation and benchmark software frameworks to identify gaps and risks.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to gather test requirements.
• Implement test sequences and data collection in software.
