As a Senior SSD Firmware Architect, you will be the visionary behind the intelligence of our proprietary DirectFlash technology, fundamentally decoupling storage software from commodity hardware limitations. You will architect high-performance firmware that harmonizes custom controller SoCs with NAND media to deliver unprecedented density and reliability for enterprise and hyperscale environments. By leading the technical strategy between hardware, silicon vendors, and systems teams, you ensure our storage modules don’t just store data-they redefine how the world accesses it., * Define and drive the firmware architecture for next-generation DirectFlash SSD modules, including subsystem design, firmware modularization, and system integration.

• Work with controller vendors and hardware teams to bring up new SSD controller SoCs and enable features such as PCIe, NAND interfaces, power-loss protection, and telemetry.
• Develop firmware components supporting NVMe and OCP SSD specifications, ensuring compliance, performance, and interoperability.
• Debug complex cross-layer issues involving firmware, controller hardware, NAND media, and host systems.
• Improve SSD data path performance and latency through firmware design and analysis.
• Review designs, mentor engineers, and improve development tools, testing, and automation.
