Job Title: Embedded Boot Firmware Architect



We are seeking a seasoned embedded systems expert with extensive experience in ARM-based bootloader development, secure boot architectures, and hardware bring-up. The ideal candidate will define and drive the boot firmware strategy, ensuring secure, reliable, and optimized startup flows for complex SoCs and automotive-grade ECUs.



Key Responsibilities
  • Architect, design, and optimize bootloader and BootROM firmware for ARM Cortex-M/R/A based platforms.
  • Define requirements and specifications in collaboration with hardware, silicon, and cross-functional engineering teams.
  • Lead development and maintenance of secure and measured boot mechanisms, ensuring compliance with ISO 26262, AUTOSAR, FIPS, and NIST standards.
  • Implement Secure Boot, TrustZone configurations, fusing, and secure key management for hardware root-of-trust.
  • Design and validate low-level hardware initialization (clocks, DDR, Flash, eMMC, NAND/NOR, PCIe) and bring-up flows.
  • Debug and analyze hardware/firmware boot issues using JTAG, Lauterbach, oscilloscopes, and logic analyzers.
  • Collaborate with silicon and board design teams to align hardware specs with firmware boot requirements.
  • Define and integrate firmware update mechanisms (FOTA, A/B partitioning, rollback strategies, and recovery modes).
  • Ensure robustness via code reviews, static analysis, unit/integration testing, and adherence to secure coding practices.
  • Document bootloader architecture, hardware interaction flows, and provide integration support to stakeholders.
  • Mentor engineers and guide architecture reviews.


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 BootROM, 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 PCIe, 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.
