The Opportunity
Join our Software Team to build the embedded firmware powering the next generation of AI datacenter hardware with real-time power control and telemetry. We need someone passionate about embedded systems, RTOS constructs, optimizing close to the metal, and automation - someone who wants to see their code control real silicon in production. We value innovation, customer obsession, and continuous improvement.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop firmware and drivers to support our fleet of infrastructure IPs to optimize power, performance and reliability.
- Develop orchestration code to coordinate operation between Movellus sensor and actuator IPs with ultrafast response times (< 1us).
- Contribute to advanced AI/ML algorithm development to improve power efficiency and reliability in the datacenter.
- Validate firmware behaviour on simulation environments and FPGAs before tapeout.
- Build automation infrastructure to deliver custom releases to customers.
- Participate in/lead design reviews with peers and stakeholders.
- Work closely with engineers to identify areas of improvement in the development process and deliver impactful improvements.
- Review code developed by other team members and provide feedback to ensure best practices.
- Respond to critical incidents, debug, and resolve system issues.
What We Are Looking For
- BS, MS, or PhD in Computer/Electrical Engineering or related technical field.
- 5+ years of experience in an Embedded Systems or Firmware role.
- Proficiency in C/C++ and Python.
- Experience with Linux kernel driver development.
- Familiar with RISC-V and ARM architectures.
- Knowledge of AMBA and JTAG protocols.
- Familiarity with hardware & software co-verification/emulation platforms.
- Strong experience with build tools (Bazel, Make) and leveraging containers.
- Solid debugging, troubleshooting, and performance optimization skills.
- You rely on metrics to continuously assess and improve software quality and operational health.
- You love learning new technologies and to continuously challenge yourself by finding new and better ways to solve problems.
- Flexibility to adjust to the dynamic nature of a startup.
- Ability to give and process constructive feedback.
Preferred Experience
- Experience with SystemC models and QEMU.
- Experience developing software telemetry tools that enable visibility, analysis, and optimization across embedded systems.
What We Offer
- A dedicated ambitious team with a vast range of talent across software and hardware.
- Become part of a growing startup in the chip-making hardware industry.
- Offices in Markham - Canada, Ann Arbor - Michigan, and San Jose - California. Hybrid working model for all offices.
- Competitive total compensation package. All regular employees are eligible for company stock in the form of stock options.
- Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage.
- Retirement savings through a defined contribution pension or savings plan.
- Flexible PTO/Paid Time Off policy in addition to statutory holidays.
