PCIe Expert – ASIC/Firmware Architect for Next-Gen SSD Development

We are looking for a PCIe expert with a strong background in ASIC and Firmware development to help define, architect, and deliver the next generation of solid-state drive (SSD) products. In this high-impact role, you will drive the design of advanced SSD subsystems, write detailed specifications, and lead debug efforts on PCIe-related issues using trace analysis. You'll work closely with cross-functional teams to optimize technical tradeoffs and accelerate time to market.This role requires both hands-on technical depth and strategic system-level thinking. You will also play a key role in guiding architecture decisions and mentoring a small, focused engineering team.ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:Architect and define PCIe/NVMe-based SSD systems in collaboration with ASIC, FW, and HW teamsWrite detailed specifications and technical documentation for subsystem componentsLead efforts to debug PCIe issues using traces, protocol analyzers, and lab equipmentEvaluate and guide design tradeoffs across performance, power, cost, and scheduleCollaborate with firmware and ASIC engineers to ensure system integration and compatibilityDrive end-to-end product development from concept through mass productionAnalyze and implement next-gen PCIe features into product architectureBuild and mentor a small team of engineers focused on PCIe subsystem innovation
