SSD Qualification Engineer PCIe Validation

Were in an unbelievably exciting area of tech and are fundamentally reshaping the data storage industry. Here you lead with innovative thinking grow along with us and join the smartest team in the industry.

This type of workwork that changes the worldis what the tech industry was founded on. So if youre ready to seize the endless opportunities and leave your mark come join us.

THE ROLE

As a PCIe Validation Engineer (IC) on the Drive Qualification team you will design and execute PCIefocused validation and debug for Everpure SSDs. Youll own link and protocol test coverage develop automated test suites and frameworks using PCIe analyzers and exercisers and drive issues from first detection through root cause and closure. This is a handson role with deep involvement in test development lab debug and crossfunctional collaboration.

WHAT YOULL DO

• Test Plans : Define PCIe test plans covering link training lane width/speed changes resets hotplug surprise removal error injection powermanagement states and recovery behaviour.
• Execute PCIe validation Execute Gen4/Gen5/Gen6 link and protocol tests across different platforms and system SSD behaviour under abnormal and corner conditions & provide periodic PCIe validation readouts for critical program milestones.
• Develop PCIe test content & frameworks : Develop and maintain automated PCIe test suites Integrate PCIe analyzers exercisers and Quarchclass tools into test frameworks to enable reproducible automated scenarios.
• Collaborate: Triage failures from regression bringup and customer scenarios; correlate PCIe traces NVMe/OCP logs and system logs. Partner with FW HW and systems teams to rootcause and verify fixes and roll improvements back into the test suite.
• PCIe tools: Leverage PCIe analyzers/exercisers for trace capture error injection. Use oscilloscopes logic analyzers BERTs and related tools (as needed) to support signal and protocollevel debug.
• Test Roadmap & leadership: Lead coverage improvements based on lessons learned standardize PCIe test APIs logs and reporting for reuse across products & share PCIe debug and test BKMs
• We are primarily an in-office environment and therefore you will be expected to work from the Santa Clara CA office in compliance with Everpures policies unless you are on PTO or work travel or other approved leave.

WHAT YOU BRING

• 6 years experience in SSD storage or PCIecentric validation / bringup (or equivalent embedded / highspeed I/O domain).
• Strong understanding of PCIe fundamentals:
• Handson experience using PCIe analyzers/exercisers (e.g. Teledyne/LeCroy Keysight or similar) for trace capture and debug.
• Comfortable with Python (or similar) for test and tooling development; able to work effectively in Linuxbased validation environments.
• Experience with CI / regression infrastructure (e.g. Jenkins Gitbased workflows) for largescale test execution.
• Strong debug skills across HW/FW/system boundaries; able to go from symptom to hypothesis to validated root cause.
• Clear written and verbal communication with the ability to present findings tradeoffs and recommendations to engineering and program teams.
• Highly selfmotivated detailoriented and comfortable operating in a fastpaced development environment.
