Silicon Motion
We are seeking a highly skilled professional for a role that involves NAND management, DRAM bring-up and stability verification, SSD boot-up flow, peripheral control, and debug and validation.
Responsibilities:
NAND Management : Maintain NAND flash operation flows, including program, read, and erase sequences across multiple channels, dies, and planes. Implement bad block management, read-retry mechanisms, and error recovery flows to ensure data integrity. Analyze and mitigate NAND-specific issues such as read disturb, program disturb, retention loss, and endurance degradation. Optimize parallelism to fully utilize NAND bandwidth and improve throughput under mixed workloads. DRAM Bring-up and Stability Verification : Including memory controller parameter setup, timing configuration, and power-on sequences. Verify DRAM read/write correctness under functional and stress testing. SSD Boot-Up Flow : Maintain SSD boot-up sequence, including firmware loading and system initialization. Peripheral Control and FW/HW Interface : Develop firmware for peripherals such as temperature sensors, power monitors, and GPIO-based controls. Debug and Validation : Capture and analyze NAND waveforms using logic analyzers and oscilloscopes to verify timing compliance. Debug DRAM initialization, training, and boot-up related issues, providing root cause analysis and firmware fixes. Requirements/Qualifications:
Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related fields. At least 3 years work experience in each of the following: software/firmware applications engineering, experience in SSD controller/firmware architecture, strong experience in C/C++ programming and data structure, hands-on experience with JTAG/ICE debuggers, experience with version control software like Git. Competent to work independently as well as in a small team collaboration environment. Must be willing to learn fast and execute as a team player. Good oral, written, and presentation skills for communication and documentation. Ability to work independently with a minimum of day-to-day supervision. Preferred Qualifications:
The ability to operate logic analyzer, oscilloscope, and bus protocol analyzer is valuable. Familiar with SATA/PCIe (NVMe) protocols. Familiar with NAND flash protocols. Fluent in reading and writing Mandarin preferred. What We Offer:
Highly competitive salaries differentiated by performance. Annual merit increases. Year-end bonus. RSU for eligible employees. Invention and Patent Awards. 401(k) Employer Matching. Length of Service Awards. Comprehensive health insurance plans for eligible employees and dependents.
