Openbmc information

What are some typical challenges faced by OpenBMC Engineers during development and deployment?

OpenBMC Engineers often face challenges related to hardware compatibility, debugging low-level firmware issues, and integrating with a wide variety of server platforms. Handling complex system bring-up, resolving security vulnerabilities, and ensuring compliance with industry standards can also be demanding aspects of the role. Collaboration with hardware, software, and security teams is key to successfully overcoming these obstacles. Working in this field requires adaptability and perseverance, but it offers the opportunity to play a critical part in developing robust systems used in data centers and enterprise environments.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the Openbmc position, and why are they important?

To thrive as an OpenBMC Engineer, you need a strong background in embedded systems, firmware development, Linux systems, and proficiency in programming languages like C and Python. Experience with tools such as Git, Yocto Project, IPMI, and an understanding of platform management interfaces is highly valuable, as is familiarity with relevant hardware. Excellent problem-solving, collaboration, and communication skills help you work effectively with cross-functional engineering teams. These competencies are vital to ensure reliable, secure, and efficient firmware solutions for server and hardware management in data center environments.

What is an OpenBMC job?

An OpenBMC job typically involves developing, maintaining, and troubleshooting firmware for server and data center hardware using the OpenBMC framework. OpenBMC is an open-source implementation of a Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) firmware stack, commonly used in enterprise and cloud computing environments. Professionals in this role work with Linux, embedded systems, and networking protocols to enhance the functionality and security of remote server management solutions.

Job description

About the role

Anthropic is standing up a founding team to own the OpenBMC-based management firmware running across its server fleet. You would be one of the first engineers on it. That means production firmware and manageability features (board bring-up through production) on one side, and hardening that firmware against sophisticated adversaries on the other.

Security is a first-class constraint in everything you ship: you'll write firmware to a high security bar and partner closely with our firmware security and hardware engineers on secure boot, signing, and attestation.

What You'll Do

Production and manageability:

  • Design, build, and ship OpenBMC firmware and manageability features for x86 and Arm (including GPU) platforms, from bring-up through production, using Yocto/OpenEmbedded
  • Build the management stack on DMTF/OCP standards (MCTP, PLDM, SPDM, Redfish, RDE) and IPMI/KCS: sensors, telemetry, inventory, logging, RAS
  • Implement BMC-to-BIOS/host communications, eSPI/LPC, thermal/fan/power management (PMBus)
  • Work the hardware/firmware boundary: I2C/I3C, SPI, PCIe, SMBus, device trees, U-Boot, Linux

Security and hardening:

  • Own the BMC security posture: secure and measured boot, root of trust, attestation (SPDM), authenticated update (PLDM FW Update), rollback protection, attack-surface reduction
  • Lead threat modeling and secure design reviews; run coordinated vulnerability disclosure with vendors and the upstream community
  • Build verification tooling: static analysis, fuzzing, firmware extraction, CI gating
Who You Are 
  • 8+ years of experience in systems security, with at least 5 years focused on firmware and hardware security (firmware, bootloaders, and OS-level security)
  • Strong technical cross-functional leadership skills, direction setting
  • Hands-on OpenBMC/BMC firmware experience on x86 and/or Arm, from bring-up through production with hands-on D-Bus/sdbusplus
  • Strong C/C++ and Python, deep Linux user-space/kernel fundamentals, and Yocto/OpenEmbedded proficiency
  • A security mindset applied to firmware, not bolted on afterward
  • Upstream contributions to OpenBMC, U-Boot, DMTF, or OCP
  • Working knowledge of out-of-band and in-band management, the relevant DMTF specs, and the device interfaces they run over
  • Strong debugging and a track record of shipping reliable, well-tested code.
  • Clear communication across internal teams and external vendors
  • Ability to work effectively across hardware and software boundaries
  • Knowledge of NIST firmware security guidelines and hardware security frameworks, specifically SP 800-193 and 800-147/155
Strong candidates may also have
  • Hardware roots of trust and attestation: Caliptra, OCP S.A.F.E., TPM/HRoT, SPDM
  • Memory-safe systems code in Rust or Zig
  • Firmware vulnerability research, reverse-engineering, or fuzzing
  • Previous work with AI/ML infrastructure security

Deadline to apply: None. Applications will be received on a rolling basis.
