Position Overview :

We are looking for skilled Firmware Engineers with strong hands-on experience in bare-metal and RTOS-based firmware development for pre-silicon FPGA / emulation platforms. The ideal candidate will have a deep understanding of low-level hardware–software integration, SoC bring-up, and bootloader and driver development.

You will collaborate closely with hardware design, RTL, and validation teams to enable early platform validation and debug in a pre-silicon environment using FPGA or emulation setups such as HAPS or Synopsys ZeBu.

Key Responsibilities :

• Develop, port, and debug bare-metal and RTOS-based firmware for pre-silicon FPGA / emulation platforms (HAPS, ZeBu, or equivalent).
• Perform SoC bring-up, including bootloader development, initialization, and board-level debugging.
• Develop and integrate low-speed IO drivers (SPI, QSPI, I2C, UART) and high-speed interface drivers (PCIe, UFS, USB, eMMC, SD).
• Collaborate with hardware, DV, and software teams to validate and debug pre-silicon system-level functionality.
• Use JTAG, debuggers, and trace tools to identify and resolve firmware and driver issues.
• Implement and validate firmware on RTOS environments such as FreeRTOS or Zephyr.
• Contribute to boot flow debugging, firmware optimization, and platform stability in early hardware validation phases.
• Document debug findings, bring-up procedures, and firmware design specifications.
