Senior System Software Engineer - HW/SW Co-Design

This is not a downstream software role where you receive a finished data sheet and write a driver. You are part of the design process from the start -- shaping the hardware you will eventually program. When the register map doesn't make sense for software, you have the authority and responsibility to push back and propose alternatives.

Expect to spend weeks at a time working intensively with a single HW engineer on a specific IP block -- whiteboarding interfaces, debating trade-offs, writing prototype code, and iterating until the design is right. This requires patience, attention to detail, and the ability to compromise effectively when hardware constraints conflict with software ideals.

You will stay with your IP blocks through the full lifecycle: initial concept, specification review, virtual platform validation, silicon bringup, and production driver handoff. If you want deep ownership of the hardware/software boundary at the block level and enjoy the craftsmanship of getting interfaces right, this role is for you.
