  • Actively contribute as a hands-on developer in design, coding, debugging, and performance optimization.
  • Own end-to-end delivery of critical Wi-Fi software components, ensuring they meet performance, reliability, and quality goals.
  • Drive Agile development practices — ensuring effective backlog management, sprint planning, and delivery execution while fulfilling product ownership responsibilities.
  • Collaborate with architects, hardware designers, QA, and applications engineering to ensure seamless integration.
  • Promote and continuously improve software development best practices and team culture — fostering craftsmanship, accountability, and long-term sustainability in the way we build software.
  • Ensure rigor in software quality by driving unit testing, functional testing, continuous integration, and verification practices across the team.


Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related field.
  • 10+ years of professional software development experience, with at least 3–5 years in engineering management roles.
  • Proven track record in Linux kernel driver development and/or low-level embedded firmware.
  • Strong hands-on coding skills in C and debugging expertise at the hardware/software boundary.
  • Strong exposure to CI/CD pipelines, integration testing, and performance benchmarking frameworks.
  • Experience leading teams delivering production-quality embedded software in complex systems.
  • Solid understanding of Agile/Scrum development practices and product ownership.
  • Excellent communication and leadership skills, with the ability to guide both technical direction and team growth.


Nice to Have

  • Experience contributing to open-source Linux upstream projects.
  • Knowledge of Wi-Fi protocol stacks and wireless communication standards.
  • Familiarity with hardware accelerators, SoC architectures, and performance optimization.
