Top 3 mandatory (primary) skills:

- Firmware engineer - Development background. Creating and implementing bootloader firmware that initializes hardware and loads the operating system or application firmware. This involves writing low-level code, in languages like C or assembly.

- C, SOC internals, Security is a plus

Roles Responsibilities:

Boot ROM is a crucial firmware component in SoCs, responsible for loading the first-stage boot loader. Unlike standard ROMs, this BootROM is more complex in nature. Its key responsibility includes establishing the Root of Trust using advanced security algorithms for authentication and confidentiality. Examples of these algorithms include RSA, ECDSA, AES, and others.

- Creating and implementing bootloader firmware that initializes hardware and loads the operating system or application firmware. This involves writing low-level code, in languages like C or assembly.
- Ensuring that the bootloader correctly initializes all necessary hardware components, such as memory, processors, and peripherals, to prepare the system for operation.
- Implementing security features to protect the bootloader and the system from unauthorized access or tampering.



This can include secure boot processes, encryption, and authentication mechanisms.
- Conducting thorough testing and debugging of the bootloader firmware to ensure reliability and performance. This includes using various debugging tools and techniques to identify and fix issues.
- Optimizing the bootloader for speed and efficiency, ensuring that the system boots up as quickly and smoothly as possible.
- Writing detailed documentation for the bootloader firmware, including architecture/design specifications.
- Working closely with other team members for better collaboration.
- Providing ongoing support and updates for the bootloader firmware to address any issues, add current features.
- Adhere to safety standards and develop the safety compliant code by writing the unit test cases and capturing test coverage.
