SoC Embedded Software Engineer

Silicon Engineering Group, you'll help design and manufacture our next-generation, high-performance, power-efficient processor, system-on-chip (SoC) solutions. You'll enable Apple products by ensuring Apple Silicon SoCs can seamlessly and efficiently handle the tasks that make them beloved by millions. Joining this group means you'll be responsible for crafting and building the technology that fuels all Apple devices. Together, we will enable our customers to do the things they love with their devices.

Joining Apple a SoC Embedded Software Engineer, you will craft and implement embedded software for System on a Chip (SoC) bringup and test. You will write software for Apple silicon in a bare metal environment, working closely with cross functional teams such as chip design, silicon validation, and product engineering, to bringup new silicon and ensure the quality and performance of every device manufactured.

Description

As a SoC Embedded Software Engineer you will design, develop, and support high quality, scalable software implementations that enable rapid device test and characterization of Apple Silicon SoCs in an RTOS runtime environment. You will engage with new Apple Silicon SoCs from pre-silicon bringup to mass production and beyond. You will write software to exercise and stress test various IP blocks and subsystems for Apple SoCs within a resource constrained environment. Focus areas could include the DRAM interface, CPU cores and caches, digital media blocks, graphics and compute accelerators, or I/O interfaces such as USB, PCIE, or SPI. A ideal candidate will have experience with SoC bringup, validation, and reliability testing along with familiarity with at least one of these SoC functional blocks. Knowledge of SoC test strategies for DRAM or Burn-in would be helpful. You will also have the opportunity to collaborate cross-functionally with all phases of operations teams from the wafer fab all the product assembly and final test. You will have a direct impact on Apple's future products by ensuring world-class solutions to demanding test and engineering challenges.
