Software Engineer, Early Careers, PhD, gSoC Server Software

Requirements:

• PhD degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• Experience with software development in one or more programming languages (e.g., Python, C, C++, Java, JavaScript).
• Experience with microcontrollers and embedded systems (e.g., registers, design sequences, RTL, or verilog, etc.) and firmware development.

Nice to haves:

• Experience with embedded Linux or Linux device drivers.
• Experience working in Zephyr, BIOS, UEFI, EDK2.
• Familiarity with security firmware development.

What you'll be doing:

• Contribute to the implementation of robust firmware code based in C/C++, design sequences, simulators and emulators for new features and optimize existing systems.
• Focus on the secure aspects of the boot process, such as Confidential Compute, Attestation, Security, etc.
• Contribute to design activities.
• Navigate up and down the stack as needed. Implement new BIOS features, sometimes debugging a kernel driver, or interacting with the silicon designers.
• Identify root causes of complex issues within the SoC. You will use debugging tools like in-circuit emulators, simulator, logging, JTAG debuggers to isolate and fix software bugs.

Perks and benefits:

• Google's software engineers develop next-generation technologies with opportunities for growth and project variety.
• Work in a small and versatile team designing and developing high-performance and secure SoCs.
• Access to Google Cloud solutions and cutting-edge technology for sustainable development.
