About the Role

The Software Engineer will focus on RISC-V firmware and driver development, as well as software hardening and security tools. The role involves working with embedded operating systems, compilers, and cloud-based infrastructure, primarily using Rust and C.

What You'll Do

RISC-V firmware and driver development.
Software hardening and security tools.
Embedded operating systems (in Rust and C).
Compilers, code generators, and linters.
Simulators and emulators (e.g. QEMU).
Electronic design automation (EDA) tools.
Performance and code size analysis.
Cloud-based infrastructure (such as continuous integration pipelines).

Who You Are

Solid experience with C or Rust.
Strong algorithmic and problem solving skills.
A degree in Computer Science or equivalent experience.
A high standard of written and spoken English.

Bonus Points

Experience designing, implementing, and maintaining large-scale or modular Rust codebases.
Expert understanding of unsafe Rust, FFI, and low-level systems programming.
Strong proficiency in C; familiarity with C++ and Python are a plus.
Solid understanding of compiler internals; experience with LLVM is a plus.
Experience with build systems and reproducible tooling (e.g. Bazel, Nix, uv).
Experience developing for embedded or resource-constrained environments, including real-time systems.
Familiarity with CI/CD for embedded or systems software.
Strong knowledge of computer architecture; some experience with assembly languages (x86, RISC-V); familiarity with hardware design is a plus.
Good knowledge of Linux.
Experience contributing to open source projects.
Higher degree levels and academic research experience are highly valued.
