A day in the life
You will be a technical leader on a cross-functional team of hardware and software developers, focusing on system-level integration and verification. You will help set and maintain the standard for system testing and verification, understanding and planning for the impact of team decisions on overall system architecture in team meetings, design reviews, and through written documents. You will lead architectural discussions, and strategic planning meetings.
You will use and develop CI/CD pipelines to automatically run your own unit tests, and hardware in the loop tests. You help deploy embedded software onto hardware targets and help debug issues that come along in RTL, hardware, or software. You will develop and document software sub-systems and components in Rust, you will coordinate with the team daily to make design decisions, resolve blockers, and review code.
You will guide system architecture development and trade studies for encryption devices, key management systems, FPGAs, and ASICs.
