About

We, emagine, are currently looking for a Firmware Developer - Production and Hardware-Related Security (m/f/d) for the development, optimization, and quality assurance of firmware.

Responsibilities

• Development and optimization of firmware for embedded systems (C/C++, possibly Assembler).
• Integration of security mechanisms into the development process (encryption, secure boot processes, secure coding).
• Consideration of manufacturing, testing, and field deployment during development.
• Execution and support of security reviews, unit tests, and integration tests.
• Conception and implementation of secure over-the-air update mechanisms.
• Analysis and resolution of firmware errors in various phases (development, testing, production).
• Creation of technical documentation for firmware architecture and security measures.
• Close coordination with hardware teams, QA, security teams, and production departments.
