Senior Platform Software Engineer Opportunity

About the Role

This is a unique chance to lead and own platform-level Linux development for complex SoCs. You will cover low-level drivers, board bring-up, performance/power optimization, and security. In addition, you will mentor a small team, collaborate with silicon, firmware, and validation groups, and ship production-grade code across pre-silicon and post-silicon phases.

Key Responsibilities
  1. Driver Ownership : Design, develop, and upstream/maintain Linux kernel drivers for Ethernet, USB, IC, SPI, UART, and related subsystems.
  2. Board Bring-Up : Own boot flow, device tree, and BSP integration; debug with JTAG/LA/oscilloscope; support secure boot and interface bring-up.
  3. Platform Software : Deliver end-to-end platform solutions across multi-core architectures, clock/power domains, and PM frameworks (suspend/resume, DVFS).
  4. Pre- & Post-Silicon : Enable features on FPGA/emulators (pre-silicon) and take to silicon/EVB with validation and production readiness (post-silicon).
  5. RTOS Exposure : Interface with FreeRTOS components and bare-metal firmware where required.
  6. Security & Interfaces : Implement and review interface concepts, sandboxing, access control, and secure update pipelines.
  7. Mentorship : Guide junior driver developers with code reviews, design reviews, and debug best practices.
  8. Cross-Functional : Partner with silicon design, verification, QA, and product teams to plan releases and resolve system issues.
Must-Have Qualifications
  1. 10 - 14 years in Linux kernel / device driver development for embedded/SoC platforms.
  2. Deep knowledge of kernel subsystems (net/USB/tty/spi/i2c), Device Tree, regmap, interrupt/DMA handling, memory management, and concurrency.
  3. Hands-on with multi-core bring-up, clock/power domain control, and power management frameworks.
  4. Strong debug skills : crash dumps, ftrace/perf, JTAG, logic analyzers, oscilloscopes.
  5. Build systems/toolchains : Yocto/Buildroot, cross-gcc/clang, make/Kconfig; version control (Git).
  6. Experience across pre-silicon (FPGA/emulation) and post-silicon validation cycles.
  7. Solid C programming; working knowledge of Bash/Python for tooling/automation.
  8. Bachelors/Masters in ECE/EE/CS or equivalent.
Good to Have
  1. U-Boot/bootloaders, secure boot/TrustZone, OTA/firmware update pipelines.
  2. High-performance networking (TSN, QoS), USB compliance, or PCIe fundamentals.
  3. CI/CD (GitLab/Gerrit/Jenkins), static analysis, sanitizers, and coding standards (MISRA when applicable).
  4. Exposure to virtualization/containers on embedded Linux.
What Success Looks Like (90 Days)
  1. Week 23 : Environment ready; first driver builds/DT changes merged to integration branch.
  2. Day 45 : Stable bring-up of at least one peripheral (e.g., USB or Ethernet) with validated throughput/latency.
  3. Day 90 : Power/performance optimizations landed; junior devs operating with your review cadence.
Interview Process
  1. Tech Screen : Kernel/driver fundamentals, debugging scenarios.
  2. System Round : Board bring-up, power/clock domains, multi-core case studies.
  3. Practical/Code Review : Driver patch or log-based deep dive.
  4. Leadership Fit : Mentoring approach, stakeholder collaboration.
