Senior Firmware Engineer

Innogrit is aworld-leading storage company. We are looking for a Senior Firmware Engineer to design, develop, debug, and validate firmware for high-performance storage and embedded systems. The ideal candidate has strong hands-on firmware development experience, preferably with SSDs, NVMe, NAND flash, PCIe, or other storage-class devices. Experience developing firmware for embedded systems, hardware devices, or SoC-based platforms is highly desirable. This role requires strong low-level programming skills, solid understanding of hardware/software interaction, and the ability to debug complex issues across firmware, hardware, and system software. Key Responsibilities Design, implement, debug, and optimize firmware for SSDs, memory subsystems, and storage-class devices. Develop firmware modules for storage controllers, device initialization, command processing, error handling, power management, and performance optimization. Work with SSD-related technologies such as NVMe, PCIe/CXL, NAND flash, FTL, wear leveling, garbage collection, bad block management, and error recovery. Bring up new hardware platforms and support firmware integration with ASIC, FPGA, controller, or board-level designs. Debug firmware issues using tools such as JTAG, logic analyzers, protocol analyzers, oscilloscopes, crash dumps, logs, and trace tools. Collaborate with hardware, validation, software, ASIC, and manufacturing teams to resolve cross-functional issues. Develop and maintain firmware test utilities, diagnostics, and validation support tools. Analyze performance, reliability, and failure data to improve firmware robustness and product quality. Support product qualification, customer issue reproduction, root-cause analysis, and firmware release activities. Create technical documentation, design specifications, test plans, and debug reports. Required Qualifications Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field. 5+ years of firmware or embedded software development experience. Strong programming skills in C and/or C++. Experience with low-level firmware development, device drivers, boot code, real-time systems, or hardware control software. Good understanding of embedded system architecture, memory-mapped registers, interrupts, DMA, timers, and hardware/software interfaces. Experience debugging firmware on real hardware platforms. Strong problem-solving skills and ability to analyze complex system-level issues. Familiarity with scripting languages such as Python, Bash, or Perl for automation and debug support. Ability to work independently and communicate clearly with cross-functional engineering teams. Preferred Qualifications Experience with NVMe, PCIe/CXL, NAND flash, SATA, eMMC, UFS, or other storage technologies. Knowledge of SSD architecture, including FTL, garbage collection, wear leveling, bad block management, ECC, power-loss protection, and thermal management. Experience with embedded RTOS or bare-metal firmware development. Experience with ARM, RISC-V, or other embedded processor architectures. Experience using JTAG, protocol analyzers, logic analyzers, oscilloscopes, and firmware trace tools. Experience with Linux device drivers, kernel debugging, or user-space test tools. Experience with product bring-up, validation, qualification, and customer issue debugging. Knowledge of security, secure boot, firmware update, or device lifecycle management is a plus. #J-18808-Ljbffr
