Firmware Simulation Engineer
About The Position
Everpure's System team powers the industry’s most innovative, high-performance, and highly available portfolio of products. We build designs for the most demanding mission critical applications. The team creates new products using an agile engineering environment to solve issues and deliver the right products that delight our customers. Everpure is seeking a full-time Embedded Firmware Simulation Engineer to join our device firmware team. You will be responsible for developing high-fidelity virtual platforms that abstract complex hardware behaviors to accelerate SSD firmware development.
Requirements
- 5+ years of experience building and scaling high-fidelity simulation software for complex embedded, firmware, or hardware-software systems.
- Expert-level proficiency in C/C++ and Python for both firmware and modeling development.
- Extensive experience with simulation/emulation tools and methodologies (e.g., QEMU, SystemC, TLM, or instruction-set simulators).
- Deep understanding of firmware-hardware interaction, including the ability to translate complex schematics and data sheets into abstract software models.
- Strong knowledge of high-performance storage protocols such as PCIe and NVMe.
- Experience with embedded software development, SoC bring-up, and RTOS.
- Experience with SoC, or hardware bring-up.
- Good verbal communication & collaboration skills.
- Must be willing and able to work onsite in an open office and team environment.
Responsibilities
- Developing and maintaining comprehensive firmware simulation environments (e.g., QEMU) to enable shift-left testing, reducing dependency on physical hardware and accelerating time-to-market.
- Creating accurate, high-fidelity hardware models to abstract controller logic, communication interfaces (PCIe, NVMe), and NAND media behaviors within Pure Storage’s DirectFlash™ SSD Modules.
- Designing and implementing instrumentation tools to profile performance and analyze failures within the simulated environment.
- Automating CI/CD pipelines to seamlessly integrate simulation and virtual platforms into our firmware release and validation processes.
- Partnering closely with ASIC vendors to validate firmware behaviors against RTL and digital logic designs before physical silicon is available.
Benefits
- flexible time off
- wellness resources
- company-sponsored team events
