Lenovo ISG is seeking an UEFI/BIOS Technical Lead for next generation server products (Intel/AMD x86 and/or ARM-based server platforms).

This role is expected to lead major firmware domains, represent the firmware team in cross-functional discussions, and raise overall engineering execution through reviews, mentorship, and technical decision driving. Key Responsibilities

Key Responsibilities

  • Domain Ownership Delivery: Own one or more major UEFI/BIOS domains end-to-end (design implementation integration validation closure), such as boot flow/bring-up, PCIe/NVMe, ACPI/SMBIOS, security, firmware update/capsule, or other core server firmware areas.
  • Cross-team Alignment Decision Driving: Represent the firmware team in technical discussions with platform HW, BMC/management, validation, OS and customer-facing teams; turn ambiguous requirements into clear proposals/specs, drive trade-off decisions, and unblock execution.
  • Technical Leadership: Lead design reviews and code reviews; define/drive engineering practices (interface contracts, debugging/triagequality gates), and mentor engineers to improve code quality and delivery efficiency.
  • Complex Debug RCA: Lead critical issue triage and root-cause analysis across firmware/hardware boundaries; drive fixes and verification closure with strong ownership.

Must-have

  • Strong hands-on experience in UEFI/BIOS (EDK2) development with solid C programming and system-level debugging capability.
  • Proven track record of leading (not only participating) at least one of the following:
    • end-to-end delivery of a major firmware feature/domain, or
    • cross-team issue triage/RCA that required alignment across multiple teams, or
    • technical refactor/framework improvement adopted by others.
  • Solid understanding of server platform fundamentals (Intel/AMD x86 or ARM server SoC): boot flow, CPU/memory/PCIe and system integration concepts.
  • High proficiency in English for engineering work: able to run technical meetings, present proposals, and write clear design/issue updates for global stakeholders.
  • Strong ownership and team lead mindset: speak up with opinions, propose options, and drive decisions to closure.
Preferred

  • Server BIOS experience and familiarity with ACPI/SMBIOS, PCIe/NVMe, BMC/IPMI/Redfish, I2C/I3C/SMBus/SPD, secure boot/TPM/measured boot, capsule update, etc.
  • Experience with HW debug tools (e.g., Intel ITP or equivalent).
  • Experience building/operating firmware engineering processes (CI, regression strategy, review standards).

What Success Looks Like

  • Becomes the go-to technical lead for assigned firmware domains and cross-team integration topics.
  • Drives decisions and alignment across teams with clear English communication.
  • Raises team quality and execution through reviews, mentorship, and proactive risk management.
