Product Engineer

System Software Engineer /Product Engineer (Hybrid Role)

Role Summary

The System Software Engineer / PE is a hybrid engineering role responsible for system software governance, platform integration, and end-to-end quality, performance, and process excellence.

This role bridges hands-on technical execution (BIOS, firmware, OS, drivers) with quality and engineering functions, ensuring high-quality system software delivery across platforms and ODMs.

The engineer works cross-functionally with BIOS, EC, OS, driver teams, hardware,validation, ODMs, and suppliers to drive robust design,efficient development processes, and measurable quality outcomes.

Key Responsibilities

1. System Software Engineering

·       Design, develop, integrate, and debug system software components, including:

OS-level components and platform enabling drivers

Hardware abstraction and system-level integrations

·       Analyze system-level issues across hardware,firmware, OS, and drivers, and drive root-cause resolution.

·       Collaborate with internal teams and ODM partnerson design reviews and integration readiness.

·       Support platform bring-up, feature enablement, and sustaining activities across multiple product generations.

·       Ensure compliance with system software standards, security requirements, and release criteria. 

2. Product Engineering(PE) 

·       Define, optimize, and enforce end-to-end system software development and release processes across projects.

·       Drive process standardization, documentation,and governance to improve predictability, efficiency, and quality.

·       Lead process gap analysis and corrective actions for recurring issues (e.g. late defects, rework, integration escapes).

·       Partner with validation, SIT, and ODM teams to ensure clear ownership, entry/exit criteria, and quality gates.

·       Enable scalable execution by translating complex requirements into repeatable workflows and checklists.

3. Cross-Functional & ODM Collaboration

·       Act as a technical interface between engineering teams and ODM partners.

·       Lead technical discussions, issue triage, and joint debug sessions across time zones.

·       Provide clear, data-driven communication on status,risks, and mitigation plans to stakeholders.

Qualifications

Education & Experience

·       Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or equivalent.

·       Typically 3+ years of experience in system software, firmware, OS, or platform engineering roles.

 Technical Skills

·  Strong understanding of system software architecture and platform integration.

o  Hands-on experience with one or more:

§  Windows or Linux OS internals

§  Device drivers or hardware-enabling software

o  Solid debugging skills across hardware–firmware–OS boundaries.

o  Knowledge of industry interfaces and protocols (e.g. PCIe, USB, I2C) is a plus.  

Process & Soft Skills

• Strong analytical and problem-solving mindset with a process-driven approach.
• Ability to work independently and lead initiatives with minimal supervision.
• Excellent communication skills; able to influence across engineering, validation, and ODM teams.
• Comfortable operating in global, cross-site, and cross-functional environments.
