Job description:
Broadcom is looking for a talented Embedded Firmware Engineer to design and develop embedded solutions for intelligent storage systems and PCIe switch controllers.
This role involves translating complex customer requirements into reliable, standards-compliant product features, working with protocols such as NVMe, PCIe, I2C, and DMTF (MCTP/PLDM/SPDM).
The ideal candidate is highly skilled in embedded system design, proficient in C/C++, and experienced in low-level development and debugging using industry-standard tools. Strong communication and collaboration skills are essential for cross-functional teamwork and documentation.
Duties and responsibilities:
- Design, develop, and maintain embedded firmware in C/C++.
- Develop automated test scripts and tools using Python.
- Implement features based on customer needs and technical specifications aligned with industry protocols (NVMe, PCIe, I2C, DMTF).
- Work closely with system processors, PCIe components, peripherals, and resident operating systems.
- Perform debugging and validation using software debuggers, in-circuit emulators (ICE), protocol analyzers, and logic analyzers.
- Create and maintain detailed design documentation and collaborate effectively with internal teams and external stakeholders.
Qualifications required:
- Education: Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or Computer Science.
- Experience: 1–4 years in embedded firmware development using C/C++.
- Technical skills:
- Solid understanding of embedded systems architecture and microprocessor-based design.
- Hands-on experience with NVMe, PCIe, I2C, and DMTF protocols.
- Familiarity with MCTP over PCIe/I2C and BMC out-of-band communication.
- Tools & debugging:
- Proficient with tools like protocol analyzers, logic analyzers, in-circuit emulators, ARM/Greenhills debug tools.
- Soft skills:
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
- Ability to thrive in a globally distributed team across different time zones.
Preferred qualifications:
- Experience with RTOS-based development.
- Additional proficiency in Python and low-level programming languages.
- Exposure to FPGA or ASIC development environments.
- Understanding of secure firmware practices (encryption, authentication).
- Knowledge of hardware-software co-design for scalable embedded solutions.
- Familiarity with virtualization concepts, including IOMMU and virtual machine environments.
