Job Description :

We are seeking a Senior Software Engineer Platform Hardware Management to join our Infinia Platform Enablement team in India. This role focuses on hardware management and platform integration software running in enterprise infrastructure environments, including server inventory, telemetry, health monitoring, platform diagnostics, and management workflows. You will work primarily in Go, extending an existing hardware management and platform enablement framework (HMI) to support new server platforms, hardware configurations, telemetry workflows, and infrastructure management capabilities.

Responsibilities :

- Design and implement hardware management and abstraction software for new server and storage platforms.

- Integrate with platform hardware interfaces such as BMCs, Redfish, IPMI, and Linux sensor tools.

- Collect and normalize hardware telemetry including temperatures, power, fans, drives, and enclosures.

- Manage firmware bundle structure and artifacts for supported platforms.

- Generate hardware health events and alerts for system monitoring and diagnostics.

- Integrate with internal management APIs to expose hardware state and inventory.

- Support Infinia bring-up, qualification, and validation by enabling reliable hardware visibility.

- Collaborate with platform, firmware, validation, and support teams to debug hardware-related issues.

- Contribute to technical documentation describing platform behavior and capabilities.

- For senior engineers, mentor junior team members and help drive best practices in platform enablement.

Qualifications Required :

- BS or MS in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or related field.

- Strong experience with Go programming (2+ years preferred) for systems-level development.

- Strong understanding of Go concurrency patterns including goroutines, channels, and context management preferred.

- Experience with C, C++, or Python is a plus, but Go proficiency is required.

- Experience integrating new hardware platforms into existing software frameworks.

- Ability to work with vendor tools and documentation to enable new platform support.

- Experience with server hardware management concepts such as inventory, telemetry, sensors, health monitoring, or platform diagnostics.

- Understanding of Linux-based infrastructure or hardware management environments.

- Familiarity with hardware management technologies such as :

1. Redfish or IPMI

2. BMC tooling

3. Linux hardware utilities (lm-sensors, lspci, lsblk, dmidecode)

- Strong debugging skills across hardware, firmware, and OS layers.

- Understanding of server components (CPU, memory, NICs, NVMe/SSD).

Nice To Have :

- Familiarity with gRPC or similar RPC frameworks.

- Understanding of distributed systems concepts (distributed locking, state synchronization, ETCD/Consul).

- Experience with event-driven architectures or asynchronous communication patterns.

- Knowledge of concurrency patterns in Go (goroutines, channels, context management).

- Experience developing long-running Linux services or infrastructure-oriented software.

Senior Software Engineer :

- 5-8 years of systems or platform software experience.
