Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related technical field.
2+ years of experience with AOSP (Android Open Source Project) or Embedded Linux development.
Proficiency in C/C++ with experience working in large-scale system software codebases.
Strong understanding of operating system internals and framework-level services.
Familiarity with software development best practices, including source control, unit testing, bug tracking, and design documentation.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience shipping high-quality consumer or embedded products.
Knowledge of modern C/C++ standards, libraries, and best practices; experience with Java is a plus.
