Firmware Verification Lead

• Board bring-up activities for Software components like bootloader, (Secure Bootloader components like Crypto Engines etc., platform managers (Power management, Clock management , system restarts/shutdowns etc.)
• Bring-up activities for Software stack for Linux and baremetal including Applications for ARM based boards and emulation platforms, Proto-typing platforms
• Develops and execute test plans to evaluate functionality, security, and efficiency of firmware utilizing emulation and evaluation boards for pre-silicon and post silicon verification
• Analyzes, tracks, and debugs testing failures to determine corrective measures. Collaborates directly with development team to assess test plan requirements and resolve failures
• Automate and the functional and System level tests using Python and integrate the same in Test Automation framework and maintain the Test artifacts for any updates in the Test cases or in Test framework
• Run the Regression tests, triage issues, create Defects in the system and wok with development team for closure. Drive dynamic code coverage for boot level Firmware using standard tools like LDRA etc.
