The Role: Develop low- (BIOS, firmware, device drivers) and mid-level software (emulation, simulation, and virtualization) to enable the use of Openchip’s novel hardware features and accelerators, bringing visible improvements to end users. Key responsibilities: • Understand the technical landscape of their project and make decisions about it. •Make independent technical contributions, especially for the most foundational or challenging parts of the project. – Develop and maintain low-level software (BIOS and firmware) for novel hardware architectures. – Develop and maintain device drivers for operating systems (mainly Linux) to expose novel hardware features (e.g., telemetry) and acceleration, as well as to support their emulation and virtualization. – Provide monitoring, instrumentation, and telemetry to export system status and health metrics. – Provide workload control and configuration, and API entry points to allow remote operation. – Configure and extend emulation, simulation, and virtualization software.



• Interact with engineers and leads from their and other teams to unblock issues, or to reach consensus on technical topics. In particular: – Work with hardware teams, influencing hardware/software co-design. – Work with teams developing middleware, and/or contribute to middleware. • Provide technical guidance to more junior team members, also acting as a mentor. • Review team artifacts (design documents, code changes) both for correctness but also for code quality and consistency. • Identify opportunities for code and/or process improvement. • Loop in directors and above as needed, for instance to surface potential risks or get feedback based on area-level technical knowledge. • Collaborate with program managers for task and deliverable tracking, as well as process improvements. • Communicate outside the team, explaining and divulging technical topics to less technical parts of the organization. Required qualifications: • Bachelor or Master’s degree in a re
