The role involves developing, maintaining, and optimizing embedded firmware for microcontrollers and SoCs within company hardware systems. The developer will manage mission-mode firmware on embedded controllers and management cores. Responsibilities include bringing up new platforms through early diagnostics, power-on sequencing, and low-level driver development. The position requires building reliable capabilities for boot, update, recovery, telemetry, and power management. Additionally, the developer will create validation coverage through various testing methods and collaborate with cross-functional teams to define firmware architecture standards.

Candidates must possess at least five years of experience in embedded firmware or low-level system software development. Strong fundamentals in C and C++ are required, specifically regarding memory layout, interrupts, concurrency, and bare-metal or RTOS-based development. Proficiency in bringing up hardware platforms and debugging at the hardware-software boundary is necessary. Additionally, the role requires familiarity with the broader system stack, including bootloaders, embedded Linux, drivers, and host management interfaces.
