Senior Firmware Engineer

We are looking for a Senior Embedded Firmware Engineer with hands-on experience developing low-level firmware for NAND flash controllers, SSDs, UFS/eMMC devices, and storage subsystems.

The ideal candidate has strong expertise in Flash Translation Layer (FTL), NAND drivers, ECC, and performance optimization.

This position requires close collaboration with a multidisciplinary team to deliver high-performance, reliable, and power-efficient storage firmware for next-generation flash devices.

We are expecting to grow our team and begin new projects in the next 1-2 months. As such, we’re starting to accept resumes and process chosen candidates. Feel free to apply!
