This position blends hands-on embedded firmware development with technical leadership and strategic oversight. You will lead a dedicated team in the design, development, and optimization of firmware for our cutting-edge cybersecure hardware products. Working closely with cross-functional teams-including hardware, FPGA, and cybersecurity engineers-you will help define and deliver secure, high-performance, real-time firmware systems on ARM and FPGA-based platforms.
Requirements
  • Lead the firmware development lifecycle-from architecture and design to implementation, validation, and deployment.
  • Guide and mentor junior engineers; perform technical reviews and help grow team capabilities.
  • Design, develop, and maintain low-level firmware and device drivers for ARM and FPGA-based embedded platforms.
  • Collaborate with hardware and FPGA engineers to define system architecture and interface layers.
  • Work on secure boot processes, BSPs, and diagnostic firmware for secure SSDs and other hardware.
  • Implement cybersecurity measures such as encryption, secure key storage, and tamper detection in firmware.
  • Oversee firmware testing infrastructure including unit testing, integration testing, and CI support.
  • Interface with other engineering leads (software, hardware, FPGA, QA) to align schedules, requirements, and product goals.
  • Contribute to system performance tuning and optimization.
  • Stay up-to-date with best practices in embedded security, real-time processing, and secure firmware updates.
Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or related discipline.
  • 7+ years of experience in firmware or embedded software development, with at least 2 years in a technical leadership role.
  • Proficient in C/C++, with additional experience in Python for scripting and testing.
  • Strong experience with ARM architectures (e.g., Cortex-A/M) and SoC platforms.
  • Expertise in firmware-hardware interaction, device drivers, memory-mapped I/O, and BSPs.
  • Experience developing for and integrating with FPGAs using Verilog/VHDL.
  • Deep understanding of real-time operating systems (RTOS) and/or embedded Linux environments.
  • Familiarity with hardware protocols including PCIe, I2C, SPI, UART, and DDR.
  • Hands-on debugging experience using tools such as JTAG, oscilloscopes, and logic analyzers.
  • Proven ability to lead complex technical projects across multiple teams.
Preferred Qualifications:
  • Experience with secure embedded systems: secure boot, encryption, key management.
  • Knowledge of cybersecurity principles, threat models, and countermeasures.
  • Familiarity with AI/ML deployment on embedded platforms (e.g., anomaly detection via lightweight neural networks).
  • Experience with Git-based workflows, CI/CD pipelines, and build systems like Yocto or Buildroot.
  • Experience with NVM (non-volatile memory) systems and custom SSD firmware development.
