Swissbit is the leading European manufacturer of storage and security solutions for industrial and IoT applications designing its own ASICs, controllers, and firmware in Konstanz. Our products run in environments where commercial storage fails: extreme temperatures, high endurance demands, and decades-long lifecycle requirements. The flash layer is the foundation every reliability guarantee we make rests on."

      "value": "We are looking for a Flash Layer Firmware Engineer (m/f/d) to own the raw NAND interface and device abstraction layer at the base of our controller firmware stack. This means ONFI/Toggle protocol implementation, new flash part bring-up, device characterization, and maintaining the HAL that isolates the rest of the firmware from vendor-specific silicon behaviour. The FTL (flash translation layer) is a consumer of your work, not your primary concern.<br>And if you’d like to bring additional talent on board right away, we’d be happy to integrate you and your team—primarily at our Dresden location.<br>Dresden is a new location for us, but we see excellent opportunities there to further expand our networked development activities. The proximity to our development and production site in Berlin is an added advantage."
