Broadcom, USA-CA San Jose Innovation Drive
As a Principal Software Engineer, you will design, develop, and deliver software and firmware for ultra-high-performance datacenter-scale solutions. We are looking for candidates who thrive in a fast-paced, start-up-like environment working in a small team of highly experienced engineers. Please note that this is an in-person position.
With our "One Person, One Project" development culture, you will own all aspects of a design, including ZephyrOS/OpenBMC firmware, microcode, device drivers, embedded Linux/Yocto builds, and/or upper-level control software. Our cradle-to-grave lifecycle approach means ownership does not end at product ship: you will assist with customer trials, address field issues, ensure product sustainability, and/or drive validation and automation. You will work collaboratively with an interdisciplinary team of engineers working on forward-looking technologies with extensive interaction with partner engineering teams.
The annual base salary range for this position is USD 143,800.00 To USD 230,000.00
As a valued member of our team, you'll be eligible for a discretionary annual bonus and the opportunity to receive not only a competitive new hire equity grant, but also annual equity awards, connecting your success directly to the company's growth. All subject to relevant plan documents and award agreements.
