U-Boot Porting / Cortex-A | Remote Europe | Outside IR35

An industry-leading semiconductor client is looking for a senior, experienced Embedded Engineer for a long-term contract, working fully from home (you can work from anywhere in Europe), on U-Boot and trusted firmware boot loader development for a next-generation high-end Cortex-A MPU.

This is genuine low-level boot loader / firmware work – not application-level Linux or straightforward integration. Ideal for someone who enjoys working close to the hardware and has real porting experience.

The opportunity
  • Fully remote – work from anywhere in Europe
  • Long-term contract – targeting a start from early January
  • Outside IR35
  • Competitive day rate
  • One-stage interview process (Teams)
  • Work directly on a next-generation SoC and boot platform
What you’ll be doing
  • Porting and bringing up U-Boot on a new SoC, working across the boot chain from early hardware bring-up
  • U-Boot and/or Arm TF-A boot loader development (BL2 / BL3) on high-end Cortex-A / MPU architectures
  • Contributing changes upstream through open-source processes
  • Supporting the platform with BSP, Device Tree and embedded Linux work
The client is particularly interested in engineers with experience in:
  • Embedded C and low-level development
  • U-Boot and/or ARM TF-A boot loader development
  • Open-source upstream processes
  • Cortex-A / high-end MPU architectures – Renesas RZ or similar platforms
  • Linux BSPs, Device Tree and embedded Linux
  • Yocto and Linux kernel debugging
  • Hardware bring-up and debug

If you have hands-on U-Boot porting experience on a new SoC and you’re based in Europe, I’d love to hear from you.
