Linux BSP & Secure boot - Software Developer

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s in Computer Science/ECE with 5-10 years of experience, or Master’s with 6+ years in embedded systems, firmware, or platform software development.
• Deep proficiency in C/C++ programming in Linux-based cross-compiled environments, including familiarity with compiler toolchains (Yocto/Buildroot), debugging tools (gdb, JTAG, Lauterbach), and performance profiling.
• Strong expertise in embedded Linux, BSP development, board initialization, FPGAto-CPU/BMC communication protocols and low-level system software, including bootloaders, kernel bring-up, device drivers.
• Hands-on experience with secure boot, chain of trust, key provisioning, TPM/Rootof-Trust integration, verified boot, and firmware authentication.
• Experience with hardware bring-up on new boards and SoCs, including DDR initialization, power sequencing, clock/reset trees, and low-speed peripheral drivers (I2C, SPI, UART, GPIO, EEPROM, CPLD).
• Experience developing platform SDK components, including board configuration frameworks, diagnostics, platform abstraction layers, and device-tree-based initialization.
• Experience with control-plane integration for network switches/routers, including management CPU to ASIC interfaces over I2C/PCIe.
• Experience with modern network operating systems such as SONiC, especially the platform/BSP layer (platform drivers, platform API, sensors, transceivers, thermal/power integration).
• Experience with simulation and emulation environments, including QEMU, hardware behavioral models, or RTL-based SoC simulations for pre-silicon validation.
• Strong debugging skills, including board bring-up logs, kernel crash analysis, JTAG debug, and low-level system trace analysis.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience developing BSPs for switching or routing platforms (modular chassis or fixed-configuration systems). •
• Knowledge of network OS like SONiC and platform daemons (OpenBMC, SystemD services).
• Familiarity with hardware abstraction layers (HALs) or platform SDKs used in switch OS architectures.
• Good understanding of Ethernet switching hardware at the platform level, e.g., PHY initialization, MAC/PHY interfaces, SERDES bring-up, and basic Layer 2/3 datapath awareness for platform integration (not protocol development).
