Systems Software Engineer, SoC Firmware

About FuriosaAI FuriosaAI builds high-performance, high-efficiency AI compute for the Inference Era. Founded in 2017 by veteran semiconductor and AI algorithm engineers, Furiosa operates globally with offices in Korea and Silicon Valley, along with a compiler-focused R&D lab in Lisbon.

Our vision is to make AI computing sustainable, enabling access to powerful AI for everyone on Earth. We solve the AI hardware energy and operational cost crisis at the architectural level, rather than through brute force, building the world's first truly AI-native compute platform to unlock the full potential of artificial intelligence for every enterprise.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain ROM code and early system initialization software
• Port and customize Arm Trusted Firmware (TF-A / TF-M)
• Implement system trust primitives such as Secure Boot, firmware update, and RoT components
• Collaborate closely with hardware teams to perform SoC bring-up, low-level debugging, and silicon validation
• Design system-level software considering performance, reliability, and security requirements

Minimum Qualifications

• Strong proficiency in C/C++ for embedded systems
• In-depth understanding of ROM code, bootloaders, and early boot flows
• Knowledge of ARMv8-A/M architecture, MMU, cache subsystem, and low-level system behavior
• Experience with JTAG, Lauterbach, serial consoles, and related debugging tools

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience contributing to TF-A / TF-M upstream
• Hands-on experience with Secure Boot, provisioning, and device security
• Experience with SoC bring-up on first silicon or FPGA prototypes
• Rust-based embedded firmware development experience
