– Experience with build systems like Yocto and Buildroot
– Knowledge of technical English at the Intermediate level or higher
– Excellent communication skills and experience working with distributed teams
– Bachelor’s degree or higher in Computer Science or a related technical discipline
– Understanding of platform design documents and functional specs would be a plus
– Experience with bootloaders like U-Boot, GRUB, or UEFI
– Knowledge of Linux file systems
– Experience working with peripherals: UART, I2C, SPI, GPIO, Ethernet, and USB
– Experience with memory initialization (DDR training)
– Understanding of networking fundamentals (OSI model, Layer 2 / Layer 3 networking protocols, TCP sockets)
– Experience with SAI/SONiC implementation and integration
– Experience with virtualization/containerization technologies
– Experience with Bash scripting, build tools (e.g., Autotools, CMake), and cross-compilation for embedded systems
– Experience with open-source projects or community contributions

RESPONSIBILITIES

– Build, deploy, and debug a custom embedded Linux operating system at the kernel and user levels on networking platforms
