Embedded Hardware Development

Key Responsibilities

Execution & Design Ownership

• SoC Requirements Engineering: Contribute to and manage HW SoC-level requirement mapping, traceability matrices, and technical analysis.
• Hardware Design & Documentation: Develop and maintain Hardware Design Documentation (HDD), block diagrams, and system architecture specifications.
• Schematic & Layout Contribution: Contribute to the HW module design with schematic and layout inputs (including impedance profiles, stack-up constraints, and SI/PI mitigation strategies).
• Bring-Up & Validation: Lead the creation, optimization, and execution of the Bring-Up and Validation Plan for project samples. Execution of the validation plan and identifying findings.
• Debugging & Root-Cause Analysis (RCA): Lead systematic debugging approach and present RCA findings and workarounds to stakeholders.
• Hardware Automation & Efficiency: Develop Python scripts to automate bench measurements, parse register maps, control lab instruments.
• Domain knowledge: ADAS, IVI, Central & Zonal Gateways with NXP (S32G, S32N), Qualcomm, Renesas R-CAR SoCs

Project & Technical Leadership

• Planning & Estimation: Contribute to project planning by defining engineering milestones, identifying technical risks, and providing effort estimations.
• Mentoring: Mentor and guide team on hardware, bring-up, and validation. Assist in breaking down system-level goals into clear technical tasks and coordination.
• Risk & Errata Mitigation: Proactively identify project risks. Analyze silicon vendor errata sheets to engineer and implement robust workarounds.
• Competency Building: Help assess team technical capabilities, lead knowledge-sharing sessions, and actively mentor junior engineers.
