  • Implement support for standards and Arm architecture in the EDKII upstream
  • Collaborate with Tinacore EDKII community and improve support for multi-architecture requirements
  • Review and maintain patches for new Arm based platforms that’s been upstreamed to EDKII
  • Work with Linux & FreeBSD kernel developers, debugging host and virtual firmware related issues

    • Required Skills and Experience :

  • Knowledge of EDKII, Linux kernel, driver development, security, cryptography

    • In Return:

    Our UK offices are amazing places to collaborate. We also have some scope to adapt the job role and title for the right person - if you are interested but unsure whether you tick all the boxes, we still would love you to reach out! We are keen to welcome versatile people into Arm!
