COMPANY DESCRIPTION
A hybrid engineering role responsible for system software governance, platform integration, and end-to-end quality, performance, and process excellence. This role bridges hands-on technical execution (BIOS, firmware, OS, drivers) with quality and engineering functions, ensuring high-quality system software delivery across platforms and ODMs.
The engineer works cross-functionally with BIOS, EC, OS, driver teams, hardware, validation, ODMs, and suppliers to drive robust design, efficient development processes, and measurable quality outcomes.
RESPONSIBILITIES
System Software Engineering
- Design, develop, integrate, and debug system software components, including:
- OS-level components and platform enabling drivers
- Hardware abstraction and system-level integrations
- Analyze system-level issues across hardware, firmware, OS, and drivers, and drive root-cause resolution.
- Collaborate with internal teams and ODM partners on design reviews and integration readiness.
- Support platform bring-up, feature enablement, and sustaining activities across multiple product generations.
- Ensure compliance with internal system software standards, security requirements, and release criteria.
Product Engineering (PE)
- Define, optimize, and enforce end-to-end system software development and release processesacross projects.
- Drive process standardization, documentation, and governanceto improve predictability, efficiency, and quality.
- Lead process gap analysis and corrective actions for recurring issues (e.g. late defects, rework, integration escapes).
- Partner with validation, SIT, and ODM teams to ensure clear ownership, entry/exit criteria, and quality gates.
- Enable scalable execution by translating complex requirements into repeatable workflows and checklists.
Cross-Functional & ODM Collaboration
- Act as a technical interface between engineering teams and ODM partners.
- Lead technical discussions, issue triage, and joint debug sessions across time zones.
- Provide clear, data-driven communication on status, risks, and mitigation plansto stakeholders.
QUALIFICATIONS
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or equivalent.
- Typically 4 years of experience in system software, firmware, OS, or platform engineering roles.
- Strong understanding of system software architecture and platform integration.
- Hands-on experience with one or more:
- Windows or Linux OS internals
- Device drivers or hardware-enabling software
- Solid debugging skills across hardware-firmware-OS boundaries.
- Knowledge of industry interfaces and protocols (e.g. PCIe, USB, I2C) is a plus.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving mindset with a process-driven approach.
- Ability to work independently and lead initiatives with minimal supervision.
- Excellent communication skills; able to influence across engineering, validation, and ODM teams.
- Comfortable operating in global, cross-site, and cross-functional environments.
