We are seeking a Security Firmware Engineer to design, implement, and maintain security‑critical components in embedded firmware for next‑generation storage and controller products. This role focuses on device‑level security, including secure firmware update, lifecycle management, debug port control, Root of Trust (RoT) interactions, and protection of critical assets such as keys, OTP, and credentials.
The ideal candidate has strong low‑level firmware expertise combined with hands‑on experience in embedded security architectures and secure system design.
Key Responsibilities
Security Firmware Architecture & Development
- Design and implement security layers within device firmware, aligned with product security requirements and ASIC security IP capabilities
- Integrate firmware with Root of Trust (RoT) subsystems, including support for both hardware‑based and firmware‑based RoT models where applicable.
- Ensure secure handling of cryptographic material and prevention of unauthorized access.
- Implement and integrate cryptographic primitives and related authentication and encryption flows used in firmware
- Work closely with hardware teams to leverage ASIC security IPs, HSMs, and secure key storage.
- Support security testing, threat analysis, and vulnerability mitigation during development and validation cycles.
- Participate in design reviews, security assessments, and risk evaluations.
