What We’re Looking For

Candidates should have 2–7+ years of experience in one or more of the following areas:
Board Support Packages (BSP), device drivers, RTOS
Secure Boot, TrustZone, and embedded Linux
Interfaces: I2C, SPI, UART, PCIe
DMA, power/clock management, and SoC architecture

Key Responsibilities

Design and maintain firmware and device drivers for SoCs and edge devices
Collaborate with cross-functional teams to develop and test embedded software
Debug and resolve low-level software issues
Ensure software-hardware compatibility in close coordination with hardware teams
Contribute to embedded Linux development and documentation
Required Skills
Proficiency in C programming
Experience with C/C++ development, unit testing, and static analysis
Familiarity with GNU/LLVM toolchains, JTAG/SWD debugging
Preferred Experience
BSP and low-level driver development
SoC architecture knowledge (caches, memory, buses, IO)
Source control tools (e.g., Git/Gerrit)
Working in structured, multi-site teams
Strong communication and collaboration skills

Bonus Skills:

Experience with PCIe, USB, LPDDR, and other high-speed interfaces
Familiarity with RAS technologies (ECC, IPMI, AER)
Embedded Linux build systems (Yocto, Buildroot, OpenEmbedded)
Contributions to the Linux kernel or familiarity with the upstream development process
Use of development/debug tools (compilers, profilers, logic analyzers)
