Embedded Systems and BSP Engineer

Technical Skills

Must Have:

• Languages: Expert proficiency in C and C++ for resource-constrained, performance-critical embedded systems.
• OS Internals: Deep experience with Linux kernel development, custom driver debugging, and complex Device Tree configuration.
• Protocols: Hands-on experience debugging PCIe (enumeration/stress), I2C, SPI, UART, and Ethernet.
• Automation: Advanced Python and Pytest skills, specifically for building frameworks that interface directly with hardware.
• Version Control: Non-negotiable expertise in Advanced Git (complex rebasing, cherry-picking, and patch management).

Nice To Have:

• Next-Gen Hardware: Experience with high-performance SoCs (NVIDIA Orin, Qualcomm, or custom AI silicon) and automotive-grade peripherals (PMICs, Deserializers).
• Build Tools: Familiarity with the Yocto Project or Android Build System (AOSP) for automated image generation.
• Autonomy/Infotainment Context: Experience with POSIX-based systems (QNX, Linux) and an understanding of multi-core ARM architectures.
• Hardware Debugging: Skilled in using electronic test equipment (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers) to bridge the gap between software and physical circuitry.

Responsibilities

• Use best-practices, experience, & talents to develop software solutions to support hardware bring-up and verification for a next-generation infotainment and autonomy platform.
• Design, develop, and deploy low-level embedded software and BSP components based on complex hardware schematics and datasheets for Linux-based systems.
• Lead the triage and stabilization of critical high-speed and low-speed interfaces (PCIe Gen4, I2C, Camera, Audio) while implementing security strategies for production-ready builds.
• Develop robust hardware-in-the-loop automation frameworks to ensure Start of Production (SOP) readiness.
• Collaborate across multiple disciplines to manage complex multi-repo rebases and build systems, delivering quality code and debugging complex hardware-software interface problems with a high level of efficiency and urgency.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical or Computer Engineering or related field.
• Strong C/C++ programming skills for resource-constrained embedded systems.
• Extensive experience with Linux kernel development, including Device Tree (DTS) configuration and custom driver debugging.
• Expertise in debugging and triaging interface protocols: PCIe (enumeration/stress), I2C, SPI, UART, and Ethernet.
• Advanced proficiency in Python and Pytest for building automated hardware validation frameworks.
• Advanced Git skills, including non-negotiable expertise in complex rebasing, cherry-picking, and patch management across multiple repositories.
• Deep knowledge of Linux internals (process scheduler, memory management, concurrency, synchronization, and subsystem architecture).
• Experience with complex, multi-repo build environments and automated image generation (e.g., Yocto, Android, or custom Make/CMake).

Additional Preferred Skills

• Experience with high-performance SoC platforms (e.g., NVIDIA Orin, Qualcomm) and automotive peripherals (PMICs, Deserializers).
• Knowledge of multi-threaded and multi-core programming in an ARM-based architecture.
• Experience with POSIX-based embedded systems such as QNX or Android.
• Strong electrical system debugging skills, including the use of electronic test equipment (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers) at the hardware level.
• Knowledge of hypervisors, virtualization, and secure boot/key revocation strategies.
• Experience with embedded toolchains, including compilers, linkers, and linker scripts for production-grade software.
