Job Type: Full-time
Department: Robotics Engineering / R&D
Position Summary
We are looking for a passionate and experienced Embedded Linux Engineer to join our
Robotics engineering team. You will be responsible for bringing up custom-designed
processor boards, developing Linux device drivers, optimizing kernel performance, and
ensuring a stable platform for application development. The ideal candidate has a strong
"hacker" mindset, loves working close to the metal, and thrives on solving complex
hardware-software integration problems.
Key Responsibilities
Board Bring-Up: Perform initial board bring-up on new, custom-designed processor
boards (custom ARM/RISC-V).
Linux Kernel/BSP Development: Customize, configure, and maintain the Linux kernel,
bootloader (U-Boot), and Board Support Package (BSP) for custom hardware.
Driver Development: Write, debug, and optimize low-level Linux device drivers for on
chip and off-chip peripherals (e.g., I2C, SPI, UART, PCIe, Ethernet, GPIO).
Device Tree: Develop and maintain Device Tree Source (DTS/DTB) files to map hardware
peripherals to Linux drivers.
System Optimization: Optimize system boot time, memory usage, and performance on
constrained custom hardware.
Debugging: Troubleshoot complex system crashes, kernel panics, and hardware
software interaction issues using JTAG, oscilloscopes, and logic analyzers.
Build Systems: Create and maintain custom embedded Linux distributions using Yocto
Project or Buildroot.
Required Skills & Qualifications
Education: Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer
Engineering, or a related field.
Experience: 3-7+ years of professional experience in embedded Linux software
development.
Languages: Strong proficiency in C/C++ programming for embedded systems; scripting
experience in Python or Bash.
Kernel Knowledge: Deep understanding of Linux kernel internals, including memory
management, interrupts, and concurrency management. Hardware Familiarity: Ability to read hardware schematics and component datasheets
to derive software solutions.
Tools: Proficient with Git, GDB, and JTAG debugging tools.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with ARM Cortex-A/M or RISC-V architectures.
Experience contributing to the mainline Linux kernel or open-source community.
Knowledge of secure boot and hardware security modules (HSM).
Experience with real-time Linux patches (PREEMPT_RT).
