Senior BIOS​/UEFI Engineer – Product Development

Join a leader in rugged embedded computing solutions supporting demanding military, aerospace, industrial, and high-reliability applications.

This is an opportunity to join the Huntsville engineering organization as the site's key BIOS/UEFI specialist, working closely with hardware, FPGA, firmware, and software engineers on next-generation embedded computing products.

You will work on new product development, starting with an AMI/Intel reference BIOS and customizing it for newly designed hardware. You will have meaningful ownership of how the BIOS is developed and will be involved from initial board bring-up through a working product.

• Become the primary BIOS/UEFI technical specialist in the Huntsville organization.

• Work directly with hardware and firmware engineers during new board bring-up.

• Customize and develop BIOS for new embedded computing platforms rather than simply maintaining legacy code.

• Start with AMI BIOS / Intel reference BIOS and adapt it to hardware.

• Work at the fundamental platform level where hardware, firmware, BIOS, and operating systems come together.

• Have significant technical ownership and latitude in BIOS development.

• Solve challenging hardware-versus-firmware issues alongside engineers from multiple disciplines.

• Take products from early hardware/BIOS bring-up toward production.

The hiring team is specifically looking for someone who has personally developed UEFI BIOS and participated in board bring-up on hardware running the BIOS they developed.

The team is looking for an engineer who brings:

• Strong technical ownership and engineering judgment.

• Excellent communication and collaboration skills.

• Enthusiasm for solving difficult technical problems.

• The ability to explain technical issues clearly to engineers from different disciplines.

• A hands‑on approach to hardware/firmware debugging.

• The ability to work independently while collaborating closely with hardware, FPGA, IPMC, and software engineers.

As a Senior BIOS / UEFI Engineer, you will develop and customize BIOS for new products that are rugged embedded computing platforms. You will work from an AMI/Intel reference BIOS, adapt it to new hardware, and support BIOS bring-up alongside the hardware and firmware teams.

Your work will include:

• Developing and customizing UEFI BIOS for new products.

• Performing BIOS bring-up on newly designed boards.

• Debugging hardware/firmware issues during initial board startup.

• Working with hardware, FPGA, and other firmware engineers to validate system functionality.

• Supporting interfaces such as USB, PCI Express, SATA, and other board-level functionality.

• Taking BIOS development from initial bring-up through production.

• 5+ years of hands‑on BIOS development experience. (will consider less for exceptional background)

• Strong experience developing UEFI BIOS; modern UEFI experience is required rather than legacy BIOS exposure alone.

• Demonstrated experience personally developing BIOS, not simply working with systems that use BIOS.

• Experience with BIOS bring‑up on newly designed hardware.

• Experience where the candidate's BIOS actually ran on the board they helped bring up.

• Strong working proficiency in
  
  C.

• Ability to perform low‑level programming involving registers, memory, and peripherals.

• Experience customizing or porting BIOS to new hardware.

• Strong understanding of hardware/firmware interaction.

• Experience troubleshooting hardware and firmware integration issues during board bring‑up.

• Ability to work directly with hardware engineers and other engineering…
