Firmware Engineer

Come join our Data Center Engineering Team and work on one of the most advanced 3D-NAND and SSD technology portfolios in the world. As the global leader in the semiconductor industry, Solidigm possesses many industry-leading SSD technologies including the most capable Quadruple Level Cell (QLC) NAND Flash products.

In this position you will join a multi-team effort that brings up new platform using simulators for Solidigm Solid State Drives (SSD).  You will utilize and grow your experience in embedded architecture, external interfaces, and product constraints. You will coordinate the technical and tactical aspects of the platform bring up combining simulation, firmware and hardware teams efforts – creating a clear technical vision/roadmap on how to achieve goals, therefore, excellent technical and communication skills plus the ability to work closely with multiple teams, both locally and across the organization is required.

As a Firmware Engineer your regular responsibilities include but are not limited to:

• Drive system architecture and technical solution development across firmware, ASIC, hardware, simulation, and infrastructure domains.
• Develop and evaluate end-to-end system designs, tradeoffs, and implementation approaches for new product capabilities.
• Analyze customer and product requirements, translate them into technical solutions, and drive requirements clarification where necessary.
• Create technical specifications, architecture documentation, design proposals, and implementation plans.
• Develop prototypes, proof-of-concepts, simulation models, and software components to validate solution approaches.
• Contribute directly to firmware and software development in C/C++, including design, implementation, debugging, and code reviews.
• Work hands-on with simulators, development platforms, and hardware prototypes to characterize, debug, and validate system behavior.
• Identify technical risks, drive root-cause investigations, and develop mitigation strategies throughout the product lifecycle.
• Partner with architecture, firmware, hardware, and ASIC teams to ensure system solutions are producible, scalable, and aligned with product requirements.
• Influence technical priorities, milestones, and execution plans through engineering leadership and technical expertise.
