Role Overview:
Job Description: Supporting new product development of high-performance, high-capacity storage AI module for use on aircraft. The Engineer will contribute to platform by working at the lowest layers of the infrastructure stack — firmware, BIOS/UEFI, bootloaders, and board support packages (BSP). This work provides the foundation for Linux-based operating systems and higher-level PaaS functionality to run reliably on heterogeneous hardware (x86, ARM, and specialized accelerators).
Key Responsibilities:
- Support porting/ configuration of GMSL3 drivers, utilities that depend on this protocol
- Configuration of linux kernel modules
- Familiarity with NVIDIA Jetson family based platforms will be added plus
Performing checks using an evaluation board
- Customize and maintain BIOS/UEFI to support platform requirements.
- Provide minimal hardware initialization for Linux kernel boot.
BSP & Board Bring-Up
- Develop and integrate Board Support Packages for x86 platforms.
- Perform board bring-up, validation, and debugging on evaluation and target hardware.
- Port and configure kernel/device-tree for new boards.
Platform Enablement
- Support integration of Linux-based operating systems on bare metal.
- Ensure compatibility across mixed architectures (ARM, AMD64, accelerators).
- Build bring-up and diagnostic tools for testing firmware and hardware readiness.
Collaboration & Documentation
- Work with hardware, PaaS, and DevOps teams to align low-level firmware with platform needs.
- Document BIOS/bootloader changes, BSP configurations, and bring-up procedures.
- Provide training, knowledge transfer, and support for internal teams.
Deliverables
- BSPs for supported hardware platforms.
- Firmware validation and bring-up test tools.
- Documentation of initialization sequences, firmware setup, and deployment.
