OpenBMC Developer

About Us

9elements is the leading open-source firmware vendor in the world. Our engineers deliver production-grade open-source firmware for millions of servers everyday - and we are dedicated to open-source! We love being part of the community and we understand our responsibility to shape and drive the whole ecosystem forward!

About the Job

OpenBMC is one of our core expertise within 9elements. We support our customers in bringing up platforms, adding features or debugging issues every day. We are dedicated to our customers' success as they trust us to bring up their platforms with open-source firmware. They are our heroes - and we dedicate our work time to craft the best possible solutions which aligns with upstream.

Your Role

You will be working with the openBMC team on various customer projects. The team size ranges between 2 to 5 engineers on one project. You will work with the team on implementing features into openBMC or bringing in board support for our customers - always aligned (and upstreamed back) with/into the community.

Your Mission

You are open-source at the heart. Your mission is to shape this ecosystem with us and break the ties to the proprietary world. 9elements and you have one mission: Change how we develop firmware and make open-source the standard.

Your Profile

• Deep dive into technical issues - You love code and love debugging issues down to the core (which can be hardware - sometimes).
• Fluent in English - English is our business language, internal and external, and you should be able to communicate with it.
• Enjoy working with Open-Source - Working with open-source communities can be challenging sometimes. You have to be able to find the best possible solutions for our customer and the community.
• Be engaged - At 9elements, we help each other. Our mission is big and nearly too big to swallow. It takes dedication and team effort to tear down this ecosystem and build it up from scratch again.

Why Us?

We love open-source and we want you! We think our employees are our biggest benefit against the rest of the industry. We might not be able to pay the best salaries or give you the best benefits, but we will do everything we can to craft the job that will make you happy.

What You Get Out Of It

As part of this role, you will be working with some top-notch industry experts in the openBMC field. We know how important open-source work is and we reserve time within your work time to interact with the community, review patches, and be part of working groups. Every employee at 9elements also gets the chance to:

• Regularly visit industry conferences like OCP EMEA/Global Summit.
• Be part of our own conference - the Open-Source Firmware Conference (https://www.osfc.io).
• Shape the future of our upstream-first product Canopy (https://www.canopybmc.org).
• Choose your platform: Lenovo or Framework? We got you! You want to run Arch? Sure thing. Choose your platform where you can work best.
• Full Remote: We are headquartered in Germany, and all the hardware is in our labs here. You can be anywhere in the world - we enable you to fully develop remotely.
• Your schedule: We need your work time to overlap a couple of hours with German work time. Other than that, shape your work time as you need it as long as you get the job done.
