Powering Decision
Join the team redefining defense technology. From engineering systems that save lives to leading programs that change the battlefieldfind your place in the future of defense. Embedded Firmware Engineer
Ultra ProLogic is expanding its encryption business and seeking an Embedded Firmware Engineer to help architect, implement, and certify high-assurance cryptographic systems used by the U.S. Department of Defense, NATO, and allied partners. This role goes beyond traditional embedded development. You will work on security-critical software and firmware that must meet NSA High Assurance (HA) certification requirements, contributing directly to cryptographic information assurance architectures, certification artifacts, and fielded systems protecting real-world tactical and strategic networks. If you are motivated by deep technical challengessecure embedded design, Rust adoption in constrained environments, and building systems that withstand formal certification scrutinythis role offers rare and meaningful work. What You'll Work On High-assurance cryptographic and key management systems supporting secure communications, remote rekey, and lifecycle management Embedded software and firmware operating within defined crypto, INFOSEC, and High Assurance boundaries Architecture and implementation of cryptographic information assurance (IA) software and systems Systems that undergo formal NSA High Assurance certification, from requirements through fielding and sustainment Role Responsibilities Design, develop, and maintain embedded firmware primarily in VHDL for cryptographic and security-critical platforms Develop embedded algorithms and functions in firmware Develop device drivers for hardware components Architect cryptographic information assurance Firmware and systems, including definition of security boundaries, trusted services, and separation of crypto and non-crypto functions Perform trade studies and embedded architecture design, with emphasis on red-black separation, Security Monitor, bus interfaces and channel development Actively support the NSA High Assurance certification process, including: Requirements decomposition and traceability Security architecture definition and documentation Development of certification artifacts and evidence Participation in technical reviews and certification milestones Develop and maintain formal engineering documentation: Software & Hardware Requirements (SHRS, IRS) Interface Control Documents (ICDs) Software/Hardware Design Descriptions (SHDD) Develop and execute simulations, integration, and acceptance testing, including hardware-in-the-loop and security-relevant test cases Manage configuration control for firmware development items in certified baselines Collaborate closely with systems, hardware, software, security, and test engineers in a high-performance, mission-driven team Identify and implement process, tooling, and automation improvements to support secure development and certification efficiency Periodic travel (~5%) for customer interaction, test events, or off-site integration activities Required Qualifications Active U.S. Government Secret Security Clearance (U.S. citizenship required) Bachelor's degree in computer science, computer engineering, software engineering, or equivalent experience 8+ years of embedded firmware development experience in VHDL Experience with: Low-level embedded development and debugging ARM/MicroBlaze-based processors and SoC platforms Firmware and hardware/software integration Strong understanding of memory management, concurrency, and deterministic embedded behavior Preferred / Differentiating Experience 10+ years of embedded or firmware development experience Direct experience with NSA High Assurance certification, RMF, or similar DoD security frameworks Familiarity with cryptographic system design, key management, and secure boot/trust architectures Experience with: AMD Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC (e.g., Xilinx ZCU102/104 Evaluation Kit or similar) Experience working in waterfall or agile development methodology-based projects Strong systems-thinking mindset with the ability to assess technical risk and security impact Clear communicator who thrives in collaborative, technically rigorous teams Why Ultra ProLogic Work on fielded, certified cryptographic systems and research & development projects Direct exposure to and participation in NSA High Assurance certification Opportunity to influence system architecture, not just implementation Hands-on role in modernizing high-assurance systems Long-term programs, stable funding, and deeply technical challenges Notice
