Embedded Linux Engineer

Purpose of the job:

Design and develop a robust embedded Linux platform that supports high-performance edge applications. The role focuses on OS customization, middleware development, and efficient inter-process communication, enabling scalable Software-Defined Vehicle (SDV) and Edge AI systems.

Job Responsibilities & Duties:

• Customize and maintain embedded Linux systems (bootloader, kernel, root filesystem)

• Develop and manage Yocto/OpenEmbedded build environments and BSP layers

• Design and implement middleware services for modular and service-oriented architectures

• Develop and optimize inter-process communication (IPC) mechanisms (shared memory, sockets, message queues)

• Implement high-performance data pipelines using zero-copy and efficient buffer management techniques

• Integrate communication frameworks (e.g., SOME/IP, DDS, gRPC, or custom protocols)

• Support integration of sensor pipelines (camera, radar, etc.) into the platform

• Analyze and optimize system performance (latency, memory usage, throughput)

• Debug and resolve system-level issues across kernels, drivers, and user space.Deployment on GPUs.

Education:

Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering or a related field (Master's is a plus).

Required Experience:

• (1-3) years of related experience in software development or autonomous systems

• Hands-on experience with Yocto/OpenEmbedded and BSP customization

• Experience in developing or integrating middleware systems

• Proven experience working on performance-critical or real-time systems

SKILLS AND ABILITIES

Technical Skills:

• Strong understanding of Linux internals (kernel, scheduling, memory management)

• Proficiency in C/C++ programming

• Proficiency in bash/shell scripting

• Deep knowledge of IPC mechanisms (shared memory, zero-copy, sockets)

• Familiarity with multi-threading and concurrency models

• Strong debugging and profiling skills (e.g., gdb, perf, strace)

• Understanding of system architecture (service-oriented design)

• Familiarity with containerization (e.g., Docker)

• Knowledge of high-speed interfaces (Ethernet, PCIe, GMSL) is a plus

• Experience in automotive/ADAS or SDV platforms is a plus

• ROS2, Gstreamer is a plus

• Experience with serialization frameworks (e.g., Protocol Buffers) is a plus Soft Skills

• Strong communication and documentation skills

• Ability to collaborate in cross-functional teams

• Problem-solving mindset and capability to work in fast-paced R&D environments
