Embedded Firmwear Engineer

Our clients are a fabless chip design technology company specialising in the design and development of cutting-edge customised server hardware solutions optimised for artificial intelligence and machine learning applications.Their mission is to empower businesses and researchers to accelerate their AI initiatives by providing them with high-performance
scalable and energy-efficient hardware infrastructure. As a rapidly growing company at the forefront of AI hardware innovation they are constantly seeking talented and motivated individuals to join their team. They offer a dynamic and challenging work environment with opportunities to make a significant impact on the future of AI technology.Your objectivesBuild the low-level firmware foundation that brings our next-generation AI training
ASIC to life from secure boot to runtime management PCIe to bring-up to multi-die coordination. Your ability to code will be the critical bridge between their custom silicon and the AI workloads that will reshape industries. This is where you can make an impact and where your expertise directly accelerates AI breakthroughs for our clients customers worldwide.What you will manage :

Boot & Security: Implement secure boot chain (BootROM PBL/SBL RTOS) device identity attestation anti-rollback and field updates that protect
our customers valuable AI models and data.Hardware -Initialize clocks power HBM PCIe NoC and SerDes PHYsoften before our silicon arrives (emulation/FPGA) ensuring first-time-right
deployment.
High-Speed Networking: Bring up 400G Ethernet interfaces configureMAC/PCS/FEC layers and coordinate with network stack for RDMA offload
engines essential for distributed AI training.Runtime excellence Power/thermal control DVFS watchdogs RAS (ECC crashdumps) and error recovery that delivers the 99.99% uptime

Host Communication: Design mailbox protocols MSI/MSI-X DMA coordinationand health reporting with our Linux driver team to enable seamless integration.
Telemetry & Observability: Unified event tracing with synchronised timestamps(PTP/PHC) giving our customers unprecedented visibility into their AI
infrastructure.
Multi-Die Scaling: Discovery link training topology management and loadbalancing hooks across chiplets because AI models keep growing.
Validation & Documentation: Own bring-up guides scripted tests HIL/emulation validationand HAL/config schemas that enable our globalsupport team and customersMust Have

• 5 years embedded firmware (C/C/Rust) on ASIC/SoC or GPU-like accelerators
• Proven experience with one of the complex high-speed subsystems is a must: PCIe bring-up (enumeration BARs MSI-X DMA engines) memory subsystems (HBM/GDDR/DDR) high-speed Ethernet 100G
• Configuration and management of clock/power domains and RAS features
• Comfortable reading schematics register specs and debugging with JTAG/logic analyzers
• Strong documentation and code review habits your code will be the foundation others build upon
• Systems thinking: understanding how firmware decisions impact the full stack from silicon to application

This role is based in Dubai where the client is building their team - relocation is supported by the provision of flights and family assistance too.Please let me know your family details and answer the questions to check suitability for the role.
