Key Responsibilities

  • Support migration from Atlas 2 to Atlas 3 PCIe switch architecture across multiple platforms.
  • Develop and validate switch firmware changes required for feature parity and platform compatibility.
  • Work with hardware, firmware, and architecture teams to support board bring-up, integration, and troubleshooting.
  • Assist with PCIe switch configuration, DMA routing, GPU-to-GPU communication, and interoperability testing.
  • Perform root-cause analysis and resolve firmware and platform issues during qualification and deployment.
  • Support sustainment of Atlas 2-based platforms while Atlas 3 migration activities are underway.

Requirements

  • 7+ years of firmware or embedded systems development experience.
  • Strong C/C++ and Embedded Linux expertise.
  • Experience with PCIe architecture, PCIe switches, and server platform firmware.
  • Hands-on experience with hardware-software integration and low-level debugging.
  • Familiarity with data center, storage, AI, or HPC platforms.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with Broadcom PCIe switch technologies (Atlas/PEX family).
  • Knowledge of UEFI, BMC/XClarity, Redfish, CXL, GPUs, and accelerator-based systems.
  • Experience working with OEM server platforms and platform validation teams.

Success Criteria

  • Successful Atlas 3 enablement across targeted platforms.
  • Minimal disruption to existing Atlas 2 products.
  • Accelerated qualification, improved platform stability, and timely product readiness.
