If that's you, join us — the intelligence everywhere revolution starts here.

Scope

As a member of the Security team at Ambiq, the Embedded Software Engineer - Security will participate in extending and supporting Ambiq’s Secure Bootrom/Bootloader and SDK for the Apollo SoC and emulation platforms. This role will work within our global MCU software development team. It will work closely with the architecture team and the local MCU SoC design team, focusing on MCU software development and test activities. A successful candidate should be a fast-learning, result-driven, and self-motivated team player with an “always learning” mindset. They should possess an inquiring spirit and be comfortable working in a lab environment, with the ability to execute hands-on debugging for embedded systems. The candidate will be involved in extending each of these to cover new MCU members of the family as they become available.

This role will be on-site 5 days a week in NW Austin.
