You will work independently on complex technical problems, partner closely with hardware, firmware, and systems teams, and help define best practices for platform reliability, observability, and maintainability. Some of what you'll work on: * FPGA development - design, implement, and maintain FPGA logic for server-class or embedded platform functions, with a strong emphasis on Intel/Altera-based devices using Quartus. * Platform integration - define and implement interfaces between FPGA logic and adjacent platform components including BMC firmware, BIOS, CPLDs, sensors, control paths, and board management functions. * Bring-up and validation - support early hardware enablement, board bring-up, and validation across multiple hardware revisions and lab environments. * Cross-layer debugging - diagnose complex issues spanning FPGA logic, firmware, BIOS, hardware interfaces, and operating systems using appropriate lab and debug tools. * Performance and reliability - improve platform robustness, fault handling, telemetry, and operational behavior for production deployments at scale. * Vendor collaboration - work directly with ODMs, silicon vendors, and firmware partners to review implementations, define requirements, and drive fixes or enhancements. * Automation and test - contribute to repeatable validation workflows, regression coverage, and tooling for FPGA and platform firmware testing. * Documentation - create and maintain clear technical documentation for FPGA architecture, interfaces, design assumptions, test procedures, and operational considerations. * Technical leadership - participate in design reviews, mentor other engineers, and help raise the overall quality of firmware and platform integration work across the team. ## Related Videos - [More efficient software for more efficient microchips](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1164-more-efficient-software-for-more-efficient-microchips) - [10M Data Records Lost, Underwater Computing, and Psychedelic Fish - Matthias Geniar](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1908-10m-data-records-lost-underwater-computing-and-psychedelic-fish-matthias-geniar) - [How a Small Team Shrank a Microsoft Monorepo by 94%](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1236-how-a-small-team-shrank-a-microsoft-monorepo-by-94) - [How to Submit CFPs and Get into Public Speaking - Moran Weber](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2112-how-to-submit-cfps-and-get-into-public-speaking-moran-weber) - [Git for Code Reviews](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/429-git-for-code-reviews) - [Platform Engineering vs. DevOps Why not both?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/885-platform-engineering-vs-devops-why-not-both) ## Related Articles - [How We Built a Worry-Free System That Runs for 10+ Years – And What We’d Do Again](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/751-how-we-built-a-worry-free-system-that-runs-for-10-years-and-what-we-d-do-again) - [What Makes WeAreDevelopers World Congress Different From Every Other Tech Event?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/701-what-makes-wearedevelopers-world-congress-different-from-every-other-tech-event) - [Where to Find Entry-Level Software Engineering Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/397-where-to-find-entry-level-software-engineering-jobs) - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers) - [The Best Software Developer Blogs to Read](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/156-the-best-software-developer-blogs-to-read) - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs)
