Responsibilities:
* Architect, implement, and maintain production-quality C++ applications for embedded Linux, with a focus on low-latency, high-performance user- and kernel-space solutions
* Design Python-based automation frameworks and tooling to streamline test execution, integration, and performance validation
* Build and expand hardware/software sensor emulators, and maintain and extend existing test assets and validation frameworks
* Integrate embedded software with FPGA-based and ECU hardware over interfaces such as Ethernet, I2C, SPI, and CAN
* Test and troubleshoot hardware and software issues, executing end-to-end verification strategies to ensure product quality and reliability

* Strong C++ development skills focused on low-latency, high-performance code in user (and ideally kernel) space
* Extensive Linux development experience, including networking and system-level programming
* Proficiency with Python and test automation (e.g., Pytest), plus Git, build systems (e.g., Bazel), and unit testing frameworks (e.g., GTest)
* Hands-on experience building hardware/software integration test frameworks using embedded interfaces (Ethernet, I2C, SPI, CAN)
Bonus Qualifications:
* Linux kernel development and device driver implementation, including embedded software for ARM cores using Xilinx SDK and MPSoC platforms
* Experience with Yocto or Petalinux, and familiarity with FPGA development, System Verilog, and HDL verification
* Experience with high-speed protocols (PCIe, MIPI CSI-2), Precision Time Protocol (PTP / IEEE 1588), and Automotive Ethernet
* Ability to read and analyze electronic schematics, with knowledge of PCB design and manufacturing workflows
