Embedded Firmware Engineer

We are seeking an experienced Embedded Firmware Engineer to develop and maintain firmware for advanced embedded systems built around Xilinx Zynq Ultra Scale+ SoCs. This role requires deep expertise in low-level driver development, board support packages, and Linux-based embedded systems.

• Develop and maintain embedded firmware and device drivers for Zynq Ultra Scale+ ARM-based platforms, including bootloaders, BSPs, and kernel modules.
• Design and implement drivers for high-speed communication interfaces including SPI, I2C, PCIe, Ethernet, USB, and Display Port.
• Create firmware to interface with custom imager sensors, including data acquisition, processing pipelines, and real-time performance optimization.
• Develop ADC interface drivers and implement signal processing algorithms for analog data acquisition.
• Build comprehensive diagnostic software and test frameworks for hardware validation and manufacturing support.
• Port and customize Linux distributions for embedded ARM processors, including device tree modifications and kernel configuration.
• Develop GUI applications for system configuration, monitoring, and user interaction.
• Collaborate with hardware engineering teams during board bring-up and debug hardware/firmware integration issues.

• Minimum 10 years of embedded firmware development experience.
• Strong proficiency in C/C++ for embedded systems.
• Extensive experience with ARM Cortex-A processors and Xilinx Zynq or Ultra Scale+ platforms.
• Deep understanding of Linux kernel development, device drivers, and BSP customization.
• Proven track record developing drivers for communication protocols: SPI, I2C, PCIe, USB, Ethernet, Display Port.
• Experience with image sensor integration and real-time data processing.
• Knowledge of ADC interfacing and analog signal processing.
• Familiarity with embedded GUI frameworks and display technologies.
• Strong debugging skills using JTAG, logic analyzers, oscilloscopes, and protocol analyzers.
• Experience with version control systems (GIT) and collaborative development workflows.

• Knowledge of FPGA fabric integration with ARM processing systems.
• Familiarity with real-time operating systems (RTOS).
• Understanding of camera interfaces (MIPI CSI-2, parallel interfaces).
• Experience with boot loader development (U-Boot, FSBL).
• Background in automated testing and continuous integration for embedded systems.
