Kottayam, Kerala, India beBeeFirmware Full time ₹ 1,80,00,000 - ₹ 2,50,00,000

Job Overview

We are seeking an accomplished embedded boot firmware architect with extensive experience in arm-based bootloader development, secure boot architectures, and hardware bring-up.

The candidate will define and drive the boot firmware strategy, ensuring secure, reliable, and optimized startup flows for complex socs and automotive-grade ecus. This role requires strong collaboration across hardware, silicon, and software teams, with responsibility for setting requirements, defining architecture, and guiding implementation in line with functional safety, security, and performance standards.

Key Responsibilities

  • Bootloader Architecture: Architect, design, and optimize bootloader and boottrom firmware for arm cortex-m/r/a based platforms.
  • Requirements Definition: Define requirements and specifications in collaboration with hardware, silicon, and cross-functional engineering teams.
  • Secure Boot Mechanisms: Lead development and maintenance of secure and measured boot mechanisms, ensuring compliance with iso 26262, autosar, fips, and nist standards.
  • TrustZone Configurations: Implement secure boot, trustzone configurations, fusing, and secure key management for hardware root-of-trust.
  • Hardware Initialization: Design and validate low-level hardware initialization (clocks, ddr, flash, emmc, nand/nor, pci-e) and bring-up flows.
  • Debugging and Analysis: Debug and analyze hardware/firmware boot issues using jtag, lautrebach, oscilloscopes, and logic analyzers.
  • Firmware Update Mechanisms: Define and integrate firmware update mechanisms (fota, a/b partitioning, rollback strategies, and recovery modes).
  • Code Reviews and Testing: Ensure robustness via code reviews, static analysis, unit/integration testing, and adherence to secure coding practices.
  • Documentation and Integration Support: Document bootloader architecture, hardware interaction flows, and provide integration support to stakeholders.

Required Skills & Qualifications

  • 12–15 years of experience in embedded firmware/bootloader development with deep expertise in armv8 architectures.
  • Strong proficiency in c/c++ for embedded systems, with low-level debugging expertise.
  • Hands-on experience with boottrom, secure boot, measured boot, psa attestation apis, and trusted firmware-a/m (tf-a/tf-m).
  • Strong understanding of hardware specs, silicon bring-up, mmu/mpu configuration, and secure execution environments.
  • Familiarity with automotive protocols (can, lin, flexray) and rtos or bare-metal development.
  • Exposure to pci-e, mctp, pldm, spdm protocols is a strong plus.
  • Proven ability to work across cross-functional teams (hardware, silicon, software, security).
  • Knowledge of functional safety (iso 26262) and platform security principles.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills in hardware/software co-debugging environments.

Education

  • Bachelor's or master's degree in computer engineering, electrical/electronics engineering, or related field.
