Linux Device Driver Developer

Job Description:

As a Linux BSP Engineer, you will be responsible for developing and optimizing board support packages (BSP) for Linux based embedded systems, focusing on post-silicon validation, Linux bring-up, and driver optimization. You will work closely with cross-functional teams to ensure the efficient integration and performance of the system, with a special focus on peripheral drivers and boot optimization.

Key Responsibilities:

- Lead the development and optimization of Linux BSP, including Kernel, Device Drivers, Firmware, and Bootloader for small form factor embedded devices.

- Perform Linux bring-up and validation for post-silicon platforms.

- Develop and optimize peripheral drivers (USB, SPI, UART, etc.)

- Handle boot sequence optimization, reducing boot times for fast system startup.

- Optimize network drivers for maximum throughput, ensuring efficient data transfer and system performance.

- Collaborate with hardware, software, and validation teams to define and execute the bring-up and validation strategy.

- Perform thorough debugging, profiling, and system performance analysis to identify and resolve bottlenecks.

- Ensure compliance with industry standards and best practices for safety-critical and high-performance applications.

**Qualifications:**

- Bachelors or Masters degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.

- 8+ years of experience in Linux Kernel, Device Driver development, and BSP development.

- Deep expertise in embedded Linux, including Kernel configuration, device tree customization, and driver integration.

- Proven experience in optimizing peripheral drivers (USB, SPI, UART) and network drivers for performance.

- Solid understanding of firmware development, bootloader customization, and boot sequence optimization.

- Experience with post-silicon validation, including bring-up and debug of hardware platforms.

- Strong debugging skills using tools like JTAG, oscilloscopes, and logic analyzers.

- Familiarity with small form factor device constraints, including power, thermal, and performance optimization.

- Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work in a fast-paced environment.
