Responsibilities
- Design, develop, and evaluate SoC platform software for Qualcomm IE-IOT SoCs in Linux and RTOS environments.
- Implement and optimize drivers, middleware, and application-layer modules for performance, power efficiency, and real-time requirements.
- Integrate Linux BSPs, RTOS firmware, bootloaders, and hardware components on ARM-based SoCs.
- Support end-to-end system and board bring-up, feature enablement, platform validation, and secure boot flows.
- Debug boot failures, crashes, hangs, performance issues, and other problems across hardware, firmware, and operating-system boundaries.
- Analyze logs, crash dumps, runtime traces, memory footprints, and performance profiles to identify root causes and optimize systems.
- Conduct design and code reviews and resolve software- and system-level architecture issues.
- Collaborate with internal, hardware, firmware, and third-party teams to integrate and validate SoC-based systems.
- Prepare and present technical documentation, design reviews, and execution updates to stakeholders.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Information Systems, Computer Science, or a related field plus 2+ years of relevant experience; or a master's degree plus 1+ year; or a PhD in a related field.
- At least 1 year of academic and/or work experience with programming languages such as C, C++, Java, or Python.
- At least 1 year of academic and/or work experience with debugging techniques.
- Experience with system integration, platform bring-up, or embedded Linux development is preferred.
- Strong understanding of ARM architecture and SoC integration is preferred.
- Experience integrating Linux with RTOS or firmware in multicore or heterogeneous systems is preferred.
- Familiarity with JTAG, ETM, ftrace, crash, kgdb, or similar debugging tools is preferred.
