Job Summary

Staff Engineer specializing in virtualization and hypervisor fundamentals to drive post-silicon validation of CPU cores. Utilize virtualization-based workloads to stress core microarchitecture, identify silicon issues early, and collaborate with design, uCode/FW, BIOS, and platform teams to root-cause and resolve issues. Focus on production-like stress, virtualization as a primary validation vector, and actionable debug data.

Location: Bengaluru

Workplace: Onsite

Employment Type: Full time
