We are seeking a highly skilled Staff/Senior UEFI Engineer to lead the design and development of UEFI firmware for high-performance server platforms. This role goes beyond standard BIOS development; you will be the primary architect for the Host-to-BMC communication interface, ensuring that Axiado’s security features are seamlessly integrated and validated within the x86 EDK2 codebase.

Key Responsibilities:

EDK2 Architecture: Lead the development of UEFI drivers and applications within the EDK2 framework for Intel/AMD-based server architectures.
Host-to-BMC IPC: Design and optimize Inter-Processor Communication (IPC) mechanisms (e.g., MCTP over MMBI/I2C/USB or eSPI interfaces) to enable secure and high-speed data exchange between the x86 Host and the Axiado Security Processor/BMC.
Feature Validation: Drive the execution and ensuring BIOS-side compliance for all management and security features. Such as I3C_MNG, I3C_DBG, data-filtering.
Debug & Triage: Lead triage of low-level firmware issues, specifically focusing on the handshake with Intel/AMD/Arm based CPU platforms.
Standardization: Work closely with ODM/OEM partners to ensure compliance with industry standards such as ACPI, PCIe, and SMBIOS, while driving innovation in Secure Boot and PFR (Platform Firmware Resilience).
