Business Line Description Be an integral member of a highly-experienced team in R&D that is responsible for developing IP (Intellectual Property) used in the design of advanced microcontrollers and microprocessors. The IP for which this team is responsible enables a product portfolio with billions USD in annual revenue. Chances are that the car you drive, the intelligent devices that pervade your living space, and the factories that produce the goods you use will contain one or more of the chips that you would contribute to. We are part of Advanced Chip Engineering, a central design organization within NXP, developing products for multiple business lines in Automotive, Internet of Things (IoT), Networking, and Radio Frequency products, with expertise in hardware engineering, including architecture, IP, and full SoC Design. Job Summary: Responsible for the design and implementation of C/C++ embedded software for pre-silicon verification for various Ethernet networking features and performance applications. Contribute to design and implementation of breakthrough Ethernet/networking IP to be integrated into next-generation SoCs for automotive, industrial and edge computing markets. Perform thorough trade-off analysis on performance/complexity. Working closely with IP design and verification teams on planning and execution, to ensure the IP is delivered on time and with highest quality. Proactively drive continuous improvement in design methodology. Thing outside the box to solve novel and complex problems. Key Challenges: The IP is cutting edge and highly complex; incorporating the latest Ethernet technology such as IEEE Time Sensitive Networking (TSN) that extends Ethernet for safety-critical and real-time applications. Design of software use-cases require a scalable architecture which enables continuous evolution of code as new IP functionality is added or expanded. Software developed in the team needs to be of high quality and portable to multiple platforms, requiring strong interactions with the hardware design and architecture teams. Job Qualifications: Bachelors in Electrical/Computer/Software Engineering, Computer Science, or related education. Experience in C/C++ design and implementation. Understanding of software development methodology and proficiency in software development tools. Understanding of embedded software development. Excellent problem-solving skills. Must work well in a team environment. Strong interpersonal, communication. Ability to parse and write technical documentation. Understanding of computer architecture and digital logic design is desirable. Knowledge of networking technologies including TCP/IP protocols is desirable. Experience with networking products such as routers, bridges and switches is desirable. FPGA experience is desirable. More information about NXP in Canada... #LI-e41b NXP Semiconductors N.V.
