We are looking for a highly skilled and motivated Firmware Engineer to join our dynamic engineering team.
In this critical role, you will be responsible for:
* The design, development, and implementation of firmware for our embedded systems, with a strong emphasis on integrating cutting-edge cybersecurity algorithms and robust information encryption techniques.
* Your expertise in real-time development will be crucial in ensuring the performance, reliability, and security of our products.
* You will work closely with hardware engineers, software developers, and security experts throughout the product lifecycle.
Responsibilities:
* Design, develop, and implement firmware for embedded systems, focusing on security and performance.
* Research, analyze, and implement cryptographic algorithms for data protection at rest and in transit.
* Develop and integrate secure communication protocols.
* Design and implement real-time firmware solutions that meet strict performance and latency requirements.
* Conduct thorough testing and debugging of firmware, including security vulnerability assessments.
* Collaborate with hardware engineers on system architecture and hardware/firmware interfaces, ensuring security considerations are integrated from the outset.
* Work closely with software development teams to ensure seamless integration of firmware with higher-level applications.
* Contribute to the development and maintenance of technical documentation, including design specifications, test plans, and security architecture documents.
* Participate in code reviews to ensure code quality, security, and adherence to coding standards.
* Troubleshoot and resolve complex firmware and security-related issues.
Qualifications:
* Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
* 2+ years in firmware development for embedded systems.
