Embedded services on chip software projects from FPGA prototype to chip bring up and production software, device drivers.

SOC IPs driver development and validation (FPGA to ASIC)

Emulation, simulation, FPGA prototyping, BootROM development, and software initialization.
Bringing up operating systems, low level software in simulated environment, FPGAs and ASICs platforms
ARM Cortex architecture, embedded systems concepts including, integrated memory, caches, bus architectures (e.g. AHB, NoC, SDIO), peripheral drivers Ethernet, USB, PCIe, SPI, I2C, DMA, etc.
Writing and porting C drivers for bare metal/RTOS/Linux, writing test code (in C) to exercise the drivers and underlying hardware.
Ability to configure and build the Linux kernel, Writing and adapting Linux kernel drivers and Linux kernel internal mechanisms and services.
Ability to efficiently root-cause issues on embedded systems and debugging driver and hardware operation using debugger and oscilloscope / logic analyzer where relevant.
Expertise on hardware from a software perspective (registers, external signals).
Expert-level knowledge of SW debugging methods on analyzing algorithmic bugs, resource exhaustion, stack and heap corruptions, SW and HW watchdogs, HW misconfiguration, code inspection and instrumentation, SW log analysis, SW tracing, JTAG/T32.
Deep understanding of OS internals scheduler, cache/memory handling, interrupt processing, MMU/SMMU, IPCs, virtualization/hypervisor etc.

Microcontroller IP Validation: uController operation, peripherals, memories, etc.
Embedded testing/Automation: Creation of test frameworks & test automation environment (Perl/ Python/ Jenkins for test).
Test frameworks and CI frameworks (such as Jenkins with Groovy).
AI Testing (Neural Networks Validation, Automation)
developing Python scripts to control equipment, sequence testing and collect result data.
Ability to research data for test equipment and write code to control test flow and gather data in an organized way.
Python scripts to process results from test runs, extracting required information.
Working knowledge of different views of data and methods in Python to translate between them.
CI testing:
- Creation of build systems and tests, integration of these into Jenkins. Ability to write regression tests for specific functionalities.
- Ability to define a set of tests to implement in CI to cover basic functionality of a SoC, and to extend this as new issues appear.
