Requirements
Skills
- Strong technical cross-functional leadership skills, direction setting
- Hands‑on OpenBMC/BMC firmware experience on x86 and/or Arm, from bring‑up through production with D-Bus/sdbusplus
- Strong C/C++ and Python, deep Linux user‑space/kernel fundamentals, and Yocto/OpenEmbedded proficiency
- A security mindset applied to firmware, not bolted on afterward
- Upstream contributions to OpenBMC, U-Boot, DMTF, or OCP
- Working knowledge of out‑of‑band and in‑band management, the relevant DMTF specs, and the device interfaces they run over
- Strong debugging and a track record of shipping reliable, well‑tested code
- Clear communication across internal teams and external vendors
- Ability to work effectively across hardware and software boundaries
- Knowledge of NIST firmware security guidelines and hardware security frameworks, specifically SP 800-193 and 800-147/155
- 8+ years of experience in systems security, with at least 5 years focused on firmware and hardware security
- Hardware roots of trust and attestation: Caliptra, OCP S.A.F.E., TPM/HRoT, SPDM
- Memory‑safe systems code in Rust or Zig
- Firmware vulnerability research, reverse‑engineering, or fuzzing
- Previous work with AI/ML infrastructure security
Responsibilities
- Design, build, and ship OpenBMC firmware and manageability features for x86 and Arm (including GPU) platforms, from bring‑up through production, using Yocto/OpenEmbedded
- Build the management stack on DMTF/OCP standards (MCTP, PLDM, SPDM, Redfish, RDE) and IPMI/KCS: sensors, telemetry, inventory, logging, RAS
- Implement BMC‑to‑BIOS/host communications, eSPI/LPC, thermal/fan/power management (PMBus)
- Work the hardware/firmware boundary: I2C/I3C, SPI, PCIe, SMBus, device trees, U‑Boot, Linux
- Own the BMC security posture: secure and measured boot, root of trust, attestation (SPDM), authenticated update (PLDM FW Update), rollback protection, attack‑surface reduction
- Lead threat modeling and secure design reviews; run coordinated vulnerability disclosure with vendors and the upstream community
- Build verification tooling: static analysis, fuzzing, firmware extraction, CI gating
