Graduate Firmware Engineer

Responsibilities

• Design, implement, test, and maintain system and embedded firmware in C, C++, or Python.
• Own defined firmware features from requirements and design through implementation, validation, and documentation.
• Develop and debug firmware in Linux-based engineering environments using diagnostic tools and techniques.
• Create automated tests and scripts to improve firmware validation, test coverage, and engineering efficiency.
• Support firmware continuous integration and delivery workflows.
• Conduct engineering experiments, analyze test data, and communicate findings.
• Support lab setup, system configuration, hardware bring-up, and firmware validation on development platforms.
• Investigate firmware behavior and hardware-software interactions, identify root causes, and implement verified fixes.
• Collaborate across BMC, firmware, hardware, silicon, systems, and software teams to resolve technical issues.
• Write design notes, test procedures, change descriptions, and technical findings, and participate in code and design reviews.

Requirements

• A bachelor's or master's degree in computer engineering, electrical engineering, computer science, or a closely related field, completed recently or expected before the role begins.
• Strong foundation in C or C++ and working knowledge of Python or another scripting language.
• Understanding of computer architecture, embedded systems, firmware, and low-level software concepts.
• Familiarity with Linux environments, command-line development tools, and version-control systems.
• Experience applying structured debugging methods to software, firmware, or hardware-software problems.
• Ability to interpret technical requirements, break work into manageable tasks, and deliver reliable results with appropriate guidance.
• Clear written and verbal communication skills and ability to collaborate across engineering disciplines.
• Preferred qualifications include academic, internship, or personal embedded software or firmware experience; experience with microcontrollers, embedded processors, system-level firmware, hardware bring-up, lab equipment, automated testing, Python scripting, continuous integration, baseboard management controllers, platform management, data center hardware, high-speed compute systems, or hardware-software interface debugging.

Benefits

• Medical, dental, and vision coverage, plus mental health, wellness, and employee assistance resources for eligible U.S. employees.
• 401(k) retirement plan with company matching, company-provided life coverage, and disability coverage.
• Paid time off, company holidays, flexible working hours, parental leave, and learning and career-development resources.
• Benefits vary by work location, employment status, and plan eligibility and are subject to applicable plans and company policies.
